About Halfway Cafe
Breakfasts anchor the menu at Halfway Cafe, a daytime cafe on Hessle Road in Hull, sitting at number 390. Seating outside gives anyone who prefers open-air eating somewhere to settle, and high chairs are kept on hand for families with young children. The counter works on a walk-in basis rather than bookings, and food and drinks reach the table soon after an order goes in, though the room does fill up at busier stretches. The owner is on site and familiar to the regulars who come through. Hot drinks arrive on their own, with nothing served alongside them. The doors open every day and trade runs through the daytime, closing before the evening.

Customer Review Summary
Friendly staff are the draw reviewers raise most, with the owner and manager singled out as polite, welcoming and quick to make the place feel like a friend runs it. Close behind is fast service, with food arriving quickly even when the cafe is busy and staff staying relaxed throughout. The breakfasts get specific praise as delicious, and diners describe generous portion sizes and good value for the money. One reviewer says the food and drink tasted clean, and another calls the cafe basic looking but very clean. A visitor from Australia says they stop in every few years, and another reviewer came to meet an old friend. The one criticism comes from a single reviewer, who found the sausages had no taste and noted that no biscuit or similar extra comes with a hot drink. Another pair of diners were given an extra free brew each.

“Basic looking cafe, however it is very nice and clean. The staff are very tentative and also handle a busy cafe very well as they still seem so relaxed despite how busy it is. The food and drink also came out very quickly and tasted very "clean" and good value for money.”
