Remedy Churchtown

Right, Remedy in Churchtown. If you're knocking about the village, it's a solid option for a coffee or a bite. It gets a 4.6 on Google from nearly 500 reviews, which is a decent score around here. They're open late a couple of nights (Thurs, Fri, Sat), which is handy if you're out and about.

It's not the cheapest spot—I'd say it's a "££" kind of place—but they do a good brew and usually have a decent cake selection. Plenty of seating and they welcome dogs, which is always a plus for Churchtown. You can definitely settle in for a longer sit-down, but it works just as well if you're just nipping in to escape the Southport drizzle.

They've got some outdoor seating too, which is nice when the sun's out. I wouldn't say it's *the* best coffee in Southport, but it's consistently good, and the staff are always friendly. You'll find the full menu and opening hours (they're open every day from 9am!) over on their website.

Worth knowing: parking in Churchtown can be a pain, especially on weekends. Give yourself a bit of extra time to find a spot.
