How we picked best cafes in Norwest

Cafes are ordered by a score built from customer feedback, weighted by how much of it there is, so a cafe with a long run of feedback counts for more than one with a handful. We then checked each cafe's food, coffee, hours and what it offers for families, and where the seating is. Food and coffee lines come from each cafe's own page, rewritten here.
