Greggs

Greggs is a welcome find for anyone in search of good coffee and a proper break in Formby.

Rated 4.2/5 across 144 Google reviews, it's one of the more consistently well-reviewed cafes in the Southport area.

A chain bakery that prepares breads, savoury snacks, sandwiches and sweet treats. On a wet Southport afternoon, that's a difficult combination to resist.

There's something particularly satisfying about finding a great cafe off the main drag, and Greggs in Formby fits that description well.

Open throughout the week. It's popular at peak times, so expect a short wait if you arrive mid-morning at the weekend.
