About The village Cafe
The Village Cafe on Walderslade Road in Chatham is a walk-in cafe and English breakfast restaurant that greets guests when they take their seats and serves breakfast and lunch through the day. The breakfast menu features poached eggs on toast, and the kitchen uses proper bread rather than the soft, pre-sliced kind. Coffee and toast often arrive ahead of the rest of the order, which the team puts down to keeping the morning moving. Service runs at a quick pace, with charges that some visitors have found run above the printed menu price. A breakfast and lunch menu covers the daily range, and the counter takes walk-ins throughout opening hours.
