Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is the main draw, with diners praising the six and eight item breakfasts as simple, classic greasy spoon food. Lentil soup and a jacket potato with beans also get mentioned. Low prices and quick, friendly service recur. One diner found the food bland, and another calls the inside rough around the edges. One notes a queue at lunchtime.

“Visited for the first time on Sunday morning after a recommendation. We had the 6 item breakfast with toast and tea and could not fault it. The food was delicious and at a fair price too. We’ll definitely return. If you’re looking for a good, no frills and honest cafe you can’t go wrong here. 👍🏻”
