About LouLou’s Great Glen

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is the clear draw at LouLou's Great Glen, with the full English singled out repeatedly and diners praising loaded baps, sausage baps, poached eggs and bacon bap combinations as standouts. Close behind, an afternoon tea party earned praise for attentive staff who accommodated dietary requests, and vegetarian eaters note plenty of options handled well. Reviewers consistently describe the staff as friendly and welcoming, the space as relaxed, clean and tidy, and food as promptly served. One reviewer, however, reports a recent visit where sandwiches were let down by a burnt charcoal taste, suspecting the hotplate hadn't been cleaned between uses, a break from what they call the usual fresh, tasty standard. Several say they'd return, with one calling their birthday breakfast, complete with perfectly cooked poached eggs, simply perfect.

“Came in totally at random as we were doing some building work around the corner. One of the best full English breakfasts we've ever eaten. The cafe is relaxed, clean, tidy and well furnished. We (me and my workmate) ordered a breakfast each with orange juice. It was flawless. The three ladies were unbelievably kind and friendly. Made our morning! It's a strong 10/10 from us!”
