Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the full English breakfast, which several call excellent and quick to arrive, with one noting the open kitchen lets diners watch the chefs cook. The special breakfast with coffee and toast is described as cooked perfectly, and a quarter pound cheese burger with chips is a favourite with one reviewer's grandson. Another singles out the jacket potato, and one mentions lovely coffee. Big portions and reasonable prices come up repeatedly, alongside friendly staff and a car park. Not every account is positive. One reviewer found the plastic seats hard and cold and the salt and pepper pots not clean, and the quiet room had no radio on. Another says a worker bullying the teenage staff ruined their day, though they found the service itself good. A greasy spoon that one first-time visitor called clean and a pleasant surprise, with a returning customer who has never had a bad meal in years of visits.
