Caffè Nero

Caffè Nero has become something of a local institution in Formby — the kind of cafe you end up returning to every time you're nearby.

Rated 4.3/5 across 236 Google reviews, guests single out the quality of the coffee and the unhurried atmosphere.

Casual coffee shop with a menu of light dishes & specially blended hot & cold drinks. After a morning at the National Trust reserve, that's a difficult combination to resist.

Formby has no shortage of cafes, but Caffè Nero stands out for its commitment to doing things well. Good coffee, proper food, and staff who seem to genuinely enjoy what they do.

Open throughout the week. It's popular at peak times — expect a short wait on sunny weekend mornings when the National Trust car park is full.
