  “This is our local café and it's more than just a place to eat—it’s a little slice of home. From the moment you step inside, the owners greet you with warmth, making every visit feel like a return to a familiar, comforting space. It reminds me of my auntie’s café when I was growing up, where good food and genuine hospitality were always guaranteed. The food here is simply delicious. We usually come for lunch, and their English breakfast is a staple for me—cooked perfectly every time. My partner swears by their grilled chicken with chips and a fresh mixed salad, a well-balanced and satisfying dish. Beyond the food, the service is lovely. The staff are attentive, friendly, and always ensure you have everything you need. It’s rare to find a place that combines quality food with such a welcoming atmosphere, but this café does it effortlessly. If you're looking for a spot with comforting food at good prices, excellent service, and a touch of nostalgia, this café is definitely worth a visit!”

  “Forgot drinks and took 45 min for my meal to come . Poached egg and avocado on brown toast. Asked for a black tea it came with cows milk . I'm lactose intolerant. Drinks came in chipped mugs and saucers.”

  “Day trip to London to collect a vehicle. Random craving on the train up - Eggs Benedict. Didn’t want posh nosh or a massive bill for lunch by myself, just wanted good quality Eggy B at a reasonable cost, and that’s exactly what I got. Absolutely spot on, perfect little greasy spoon café with a varied menu. It’s a winner. £8 with a cuppa. Can’t fault it.”
