The Altrincham.co.uk verdict
Arguably the best place in Altrincham for breakfast, brunch or lunch, Blanchflower is always bustling, and with good reason. The in-house bakery is a huge part of its appeal, while the sweetcorn fritters and crispy fried chicken on brioche are perennial favourites. There's a lovely outdoor seating area too, which fills up the moment the temperature creeps above about 10 degrees.
