WE’VE had hair, pies and nails, followed by pubs and fish and chips in our Best of 2022 competition.

Next up we wanted to know where to go for the best breakfast.

Whether it’s a simple bacon sandwich, thick cut toasted bread with butter and jam or a full English – the choice of what to have for breakfast is endless.

Everyone has their favourite breakfast items but we want to know where in Cheshire serves the best food to start the day.

Do you prefer your eggs scrambled, poached or fried?

Would you add ketchup or brown sauce to a bacon sandwich?

We wanted you to tell us which restaurant, café or pub provides the best breakfast in town, whether it was somewhere offering a sit down table service or a quick takeaway option from a roadside truck – the choice was yours!

We’ve shortlisted the top six, who will battle it out to be named Best for Breakfast.

Now we need your help to choose an overall Best for Breakfast winner from our shortlist.

1. Search for the Best Of post on our Northwich Guardian, Knutsford Guardian or Winsford and Middlewich Guardian Facebook pages and comment under the post with the name of your winner = 1 vote
