Food Scene

Cofano Caffe is located 0.5 miles/ 10 minutes’ walk (on the same row as The Co-op). A true Italian, its flat whites and hot chocolates are definitely recommended. Their food menu spans a range of meals. They also stock Italian produce and sell a range of freshly made cakes (and bread on Saturdays). Further information can be found at facebook.com/cofanocaffe

Fig & Fennel is on the same row as Cofano. As well as coffees, it offers a delicious range of lunches, including some amazing wraps. A menu can be found on its website: figfennel.co.uk/ Whilst the coffees are great, a large coffee will set you back around £1.00 more than from Cofano so we suggest you make the ever-so-slightly longer walk there.

The Strawberry Pig - A delicious, and generous, chippy located on Park Lane. We have found that phoning ahead (01625-875-923) means everything is ready to collect by the time we’ve made the walk (approximately 15 minutes).

Sightseeing

Poynton Park  - Known locally as ‘Poynton Pool’ and just 1 mile/ 20 minutes’ walk away (but with its own car park), the large public park features its own lake and makes for a lovely visit at any time of day - but can host a lovely sunset.

Lyme Park - If after a longer walk, you can walk to Lyme Park in around 1 hour (around 2.8 miles one-way). The route goes across the canal so could incorporate both. If you feel up to it, we suggest walking back passed the ‘West Lodge’ (so left where the path forks as you head back out of Lyme Park).
