About The Street Café
On Magdalen St in Norwich, The Street Café serves a full menu of traditional English breakfasts alongside pancakes, including a Snickers Bar Pancake. The Old English breakfast comes with black and white pudding and deep fried bubble and squeak, and vegetarian and vegan breakfast options sit alongside extras and sides. The menu runs to 20 dishes in total, with a Cappuccino or Flat White to go with them. Food and drinks are brought to the table rather than collected at a counter.

“What a great place. Loved the ambiance and decor. There’s an awesome menu selection of breakfast options and loads of extras and sides. The staff were really friendly and the food and drinks were made fresh to order and brought out in a fair time. The food was very tasty, and everything was cooked perfectly for my liking. Would very much recommend.”

“I had read positive reviews about this cafe so got my daughter to take me for brunch on father's day. As expected it was busy but we got a table fairly easily and ordered our food & drinks. There was a bit of a wait for which the host/owner apologised several times (even offered us a free drink, I declined as I was happy to wait). When the food arrived it was most definitely worth the wait, cooked to perfection and huge portions. My daughter's breakfast bap was as big as her head. In summary a great find, excellent food & staff and reasonably priced. Well worth the visit and I'll be taking my wife there soon.”

“This morning, I had a delightful traditional English breakfast at the Street Cafe. The staff was welcoming, polite, and friendly, providing excellent table service. The breakfast was not only well presented but also delicious. Despite the mix of customers, including young children, the atmosphere was relaxing and cozy. I highly recommend this street cafe, which features a great selection of reasonably priced breakfasts and snacks, including options for both vegetarians and vegans.”
