Sugar at Chelsea Bay
Cafe / Brunch · North Shore · $$ · ★ 4.1
Cakes at the working Chelsea sugar refinery in Birkenhead — the raspberry lamington is the one, and the park is right there
Taking the kids
There is a kids menu, which saves the usual negotiation over a shared plate. Outdoor seating helps on a noisy day — or a day when the kids need to be loud. Prams get in without a fight.
