About Sam's Cafe
Sam's Cafe is a daytime cafe on Sheffield Road in Chesterfield, serving a full English breakfast that comes in small or large sizes with a tea or coffee alongside it, so a hot drink arrives with the plate rather than as a separate order. Toast comes with the breakfast, and marmalade is available. The plate can be adjusted on request, with swaps such as tomatoes in place of hash browns. Beyond the breakfast, the kitchen turns out a bacon sandwich and cheese on toast. Orders are taken at the table and the food is brought out by the team. Dogs are welcome to come inside with their owners, high chairs suit families with young children, and a step-free entrance serves visitors with mobility needs. Booking ahead is advised. The cafe opens Monday to Saturday through the day and closes on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
The full English anchors nearly every account, with diners describing it as served steaming hot, generously sized and, in one case, not greasy, the hash browns singled out as the best part by a reviewer who otherwise avoids them. Close behind sits the bacon sandwich, called the best one had in a long while, while the included hot drink and the toast with marmalade come up repeatedly as part of what several frame as strong value. Dogs come in with their owners, and one reviewer credits theirs with approving the sausages and cheese on toast. Staff are described as friendly, welcoming and willing to swap a hash brown for tomatoes on request. The clear dissent comes from one visit where the windows and doors stood open on a cold day, leaving the room chilly and noisy with traffic, and a local reportedly calling the place the fridge, though that same reviewer praised the ingredients and the attentive service. Another recalls toast cut and arranged around a fried egg like a sunflower for a child.

“A great find this morning, super breakfast, served hot. Very tasty. Great price and lovely welcoming service. Highly recommend”
- Craig Mitchell-Fox
“Visited with my youngest and ordered the full English for myself and a slice of toast and fried egg for my son. The quality was great and steaming hot. They even cut up the toast and presented this with the egg central like a sun flower for his enjoyment. Cup of tea included and a free squash and was less than £10. Will bring the whole family next time. Thank you!”

“Lovely warm cafe, warm friendly waitress/owner, great breakfast. Very dog friendly. Small(not really!) breakfast incl tea/instant but nice coffee and toast and marmalade all for £6. Fab if you stay at the local Travelodge.”
- Craig Saxton
“I had the small english breakfast and it was very nice and there was plenty and a good selection. I'm not a fan of hash browns so they happily swapped it for tomatoes. Great value and you get a hot drink included in the price of the breakfast.”
