About O'Toole's Cafe
On Westwood Rd in Coventry, O'Toole's Cafe serves Irish breakfasts alongside sandwiches, cakes and coffee, cooked to order rather than pre-prepared. The full breakfast comes with white pudding and an Irish potato cake, and a vegan breakfast cob is also on the menu. Paninis are available outside the breakfast hours, and homemade apple pie served hot with cream rounds out the dessert options. The cafe is walk-in only, staff take a phone number and call when a table opens, and waits are common on busy days. Irish music plays in the background throughout service.

“A small family business serving good quality Irish breakfasts, sandwiches, cakes and great coffee. We are not a fast food café. We serve good quality, freshly cooked food, as quickly as we can!”

Customer Review Summary
The full Irish breakfast draws consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly singling out the white pudding and potato cake as standouts alongside poached eggs and crispy bacon cooked, as several put it, to perfection. Close behind, the homemade apple pie served hot with cream and a vegan breakfast cob earn individual mentions, and the lattes come up as a favorite too. Staff are described again and again as friendly and accommodating, chatting with customers, entertaining children with books and coloring, and customizing orders without complaint. Tables fill up fast and a wait is common, though reviewers note the staff take numbers and call when ready, and several call the pace understandable given how busy the cafe gets. One review notes an Irish music backdrop adding to the atmosphere. Reviewers describe the cafe as family run and reasonably priced. One visit closed with a chocolate bar handed to a child on the way out.

“Honestly the best breakfast around. A very busy place, but that speaks volumes. As soon as a table is free, it is occupied by the next hungry customers. We have had a few breakfasts here lately and all have been superb! Their white pudding is lush, the latte's are so nice. The team are lovely, very hard working and friendly. Everything is tasty, fair priced and you don't have to wait long, considering how busy they are. Thanks again guys x”

“Vegan Breakfast cob tasted fantastic and was served promptly. But most amazing of all was homemade apple pie served hot with cream, the best I've had in my whole life! Very refreshing to see good quality food made with love in a time of chains and centralised food production.”

“We visited the cafe today for the first time after talking about it forever and had the most lovely breakfast. Our little girl was given some books and entertainment to keep her busy whilst we enjoyed our gorgeous meals cooked to perfection! The atmosphere was lovely we loved the irish music in the background and the time the staff took out of their busy morning to chat. we will definitely be regulars. gutted we didn’t come sooner! Thanks for having us!”

“O’Toole’s is an absolute gem for breakfast. The staff couldn’t be more pleasant — they’re always happy to customise your breakfast exactly the way you like it and never make you feel like it’s any trouble at all. The food is incredible and truly homemade. By far the best breakfast in Coventry.”
