We are incredibly proud to announce that Tilly's Bunbury has been named a finalist in the Visit Cheshire Tourism Awards 2027 in the Taste of Cheshire Award category.
To be recognised among Cheshire's leading food and hospitality businesses is an incredible achievement for our independent family-run café and another exciting milestone in what has been an unforgettable journey since taking over Tilly's in August 2024.
As a small village café in the heart of Bunbury, we never take recognition like this for granted. Every cup of speciality coffee, every homemade cake, every freshly prepared breakfast and every warm welcome has helped us reach this point.
Celebrating Cheshire's Best
The Visit Cheshire Tourism Awards celebrate the very best visitor experiences, attractions, accommodation, restaurants and hospitality businesses from across Cheshire and Warrington. Organised by Marketing Cheshire, the awards recognise businesses that deliver exceptional quality, service and memorable experiences for visitors to the region.
This year's finalists represent some of the county's finest tourism and hospitality businesses, making it a real honour for Tilly's Bunbury to be shortlisted.
The winners will be announced at a prestigious awards ceremony at Fairmont Cheshire, The Mere Golf Resort & Spa, bringing together businesses from across Cheshire to celebrate everything that makes our county such a fantastic place to visit.

More Than Just a Café
Since taking over Tilly's, our vision has always been about creating more than somewhere to enjoy great coffee and homemade food.
We wanted to build a welcoming community café where everyone feels at home.
Whether you're:
Visiting Bunbury for the first time
Exploring nearby Beeston Castle
Walking the Sandstone Trail
Meeting friends for brunch
Enjoying afternoon tea
Stopping during a cycle ride
Or simply treating yourself to coffee and cake
we hope every visit leaves you wanting to return.
Being recognised by the Visit Cheshire Tourism Awards tells us we're achieving exactly that.

This Recognition Belongs to Our Team
Awards are never won by one or two people.
They're built on hundreds of early mornings, busy weekends, smiles across the counter, perfectly made coffees, freshly baked cakes and the little details that make every visit special.
Our fantastic team work incredibly hard every day and we're so proud that their commitment has been recognised through this award.
Their passion, care and genuine friendliness are at the heart of everything we do.

Thank You to Our Customers
We also want to say a huge thank you to every customer who has visited us.
Whether you've discovered us through Visit Cheshire, recommended us to friends, left us a review, attended one of our community events or simply made us part of your weekly routine—you've helped make this possible.
Independent cafés rely on the support of their local community and visitors alike, and we're incredibly grateful for every person who walks through our doors.
Looking Forward
Being named a finalist follows another exciting year for Tilly's, including being recognised as a Top 3 Finalist for Café of the Year in the Cheshire Life Food & Drink Awards.
These recognitions motivate us to keep improving, keep innovating and continue creating memorable experiences for everyone who visits our café.
No matter what happens on awards night, we're incredibly proud to represent Bunbury and be recognised alongside so many outstanding Cheshire businesses.
We look forward to welcoming both familiar faces and first-time visitors to experience everything that makes Tilly's Bunbury such a special place.
Thank you for being part of our journey—we couldn't have done it without you.
