My cycling friends and I are always on the lookout for new cafe stops, so after my ride around Daresbury, I decided to pay an unplanned cafe stop at The Shed. A plus for cyclists is that the stone chipping driveway has some sort of inserts in it, making it easy to cycle on with a road bike. The cafe is very clean and tidy with very friendly service. There is plenty of seating inside and plenty of bench tables spread about in their large grassed area. You can sign up for a loyalty scheme to get a free drink after purchasing a number of drinks. As this wasn't a planned cafe stop, I had already eaten while cycling, so I just ordered a large americano (£3.20). A nice coffee that was brought to me at my table outside. The sandwiches, cakes, etc, looked very fresh. I will try them next time I visit. For the dog walkers, there are a couple of drinks bowls just by the entrance to the cafe.

Read moreReally enjoy coming here. I pass it on my way to and from work so nipping in for a coffee is always welcome. 4/5 for food only because by the time I get there there’s not much left.
Great rewards scheme on the coffee purchases which rivals Costa/starbucks loyalty scheme.
Staff are lovely.
Situated just off from a horse field so great for children to play and see the horses.
Only very small inside but great seating space outside, weather permitting of course.
Cakes are great from here if your after a few secret calories with a...
