To welcome customers, they have launched a delicious festive winter menu designed by head chef Richard Taylor.
It features hot food such as roast beef or pulled pork sandwiches, as well as pie of the day, Mancunian sausages and pulled pork mash, and honey baked goat’s cheese and Mediterranean vegetables.

Chef Richard will also be unveiling some very unique specials that will change weekly.

There will also be a selection of alcoholic drinks including mulled wine and hot spicy cider.

And a host of seasonal ice-creams – including mince pie and Christmas pudding – have been added to their usual mouth-watering choices to complete the line-up.

All the Christmas flavours are available in 1L tubs, perfect for taking home or gifting to a loved one.

Rick Scholes, who runs Grandpa Greene’s with his mum Carole, explained: “It will be nice for customers to sit outside under the heaters and enjoy a hot drink and snack.

“Or they can sit inside next to the fire and enjoy an ice-cream, or try our new afternoon tea, which is available seven days a week but must be booked in advance.

“And we’ve got the new winter menu available. Richard has put it together with his unique twist and it will definitely be something different.”

The café has also launched a ‘GG’s 60 Club’ offering over 60s a meal of home-made soup, a sandwich, and ice-cream with pot of Yorkshire tea for £6.95. The deal is valid weekdays from 10am-4pm, excluding holidays.

And as always, they will have snacks such as sandwiches and paninis available, along with ice-creams, milkshakes, beer, wine and hot drinks.
