The sister restaurant to the popular Northern Quarter venue is a worthy addition to the Home Sweet Home family. Specialising in all-day casual dining, this Great Northern outlet is the perfect spot for a cup of tea while passing through, or everything from lunch to brunch to sweet treats, for those looking for a longer stay. The staff are cheerful, friendly and the atmosphere is second to none. Just watch out for the frighteningly aggressive pigeons in the outside area – they could give the average Blackpool seagull a run for its money.
