Customer Review Summary
Cooked breakfast is the main draw, with reviewers describing a full English with quality bacon that arrives piping hot and fills them up for the day. Close behind are the generous portions and low cost, which several call good value and very affordable. Staff are described as friendly, helpful and polite, bringing food and condiments to the table, and one long-time customer who followed the cafe to its bigger premises across the road says little has changed. Beyond breakfast, a local worker regularly orders sandwiches on Saturdays, and another reviewer names the chicken butterfly as the best around. Delivery is praised for arriving on time and hot, and one reviewer calls the inside nice and clean. Another sees a cafe popular with locals, with a steady flow of phone orders. One reviewer who phones ahead and walks over says the order is always ready and piping hot when they arrive.
