“Very welcoming little cafe. Always a pleasure to visit. Good food. Good brew 😁 Update to review... still an awesome breakfast, good value, friendly and welcoming 🙏”
- Andrew Bailey
“This is an utter delight of a cafe: freshly prepared food, generous and hospitable service and excellent value for money. It is a delight to visit for great coffee and a bite - and great to sit in and enjoy a great community.”
- Daniel Meissner
“A small but charming spot, Little Cafe in Chelmsford offers several variations of a traditional English breakfast, plus the option to build your own plate. There are good choices for vegetarians as well, while the standouts for me were the rich pork sausages and the perfectly cooked black pudding, all served by consistently friendly and attentive staff. The café itself is quite small and outdoor seating is limited, so it can fill up quickly, but the unbeatable value for money more than compensates for the lack of space. Overall, an excellent choice for a relaxed, no-frills breakfast with great flavour and a very fair price”

“Mem was such a beautiful man. He treated me like royalty, gave me his extra special sausage, and kissed me on the way out. I will be back <3”
