  “This is a midium sized cafe with Plents of indoor and outdoor seating. No, or limited food hygine shown my man cooking meals. No hear net, or apron. only waring basebal cap and everyday clothing. Also man was constantly wiping back of hand of clothing. However saying this the Food was cooked well, I enjoyed my Full English Breakfast. Great costomer, and table service shown by waitress. A short walk from Univercity cappus”

  “Had a really lovely breakfast here! I ordered the eggs benedict and it was genuinely the best I've had. Poached eggs were perfect (no snotty white and a perfectly runny yolk) and I think it was served on a brioche bun which was a really nice change! My daughter had the biscoff pancakes and these were amazing too - fluffy and chunky with biscoff and sauce between all the layers. Great drinks too. Service was excellent - chirpy but not intrusive and everything was delivered to our table in good time. Nice touch with the custard cream biscuits with the hot drinks. We were only passing through Southampton but there was a steady stream of locals in there too.”

  “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Stumbled across this lovely little spot in Southampton and had a great time. I had the cheeseburger — a proper 8oz beef patty in a brioche bun with fries — and it was excellent: generous, fresh, and full of flavour. The value for money is fantastic; portions are satisfying and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. The menu has loads to offer too — all-day breakfast, homemade fluffy pancakes, burgers, plenty of vegan and gluten-free options, plus everything from coffee to milkshakes. A warm, friendly café with something for everyone. If you're in Southampton, definitely stop by — I'll be back!”

  “Another 5 star experience ths morning, which if I'm being fair is better than a few I remember in previous years. The staff seemed well on top of everything this morning and the Monster Full English Breakfast that I enjoyed is the best that I know of in Southampton. I love this little cafe.”

I ordered a small breakfast and asked if I could have two hash browns instead of two sausages, which originally come with this plate that is under £9 and also got coffee which was also lovely :)”

  “I am not local but have had 2 overnight stays and have happily eaten here twice rather than a hotel breakfast! Good size portions of great food, good service and a nice place to read your book etc whilst waiting for food. Highly recommend”

  “Always friendly and cozy atmosphere, lovely food too. They have a variety of board games which adds to the cozy vibe. I'm big fan of drinking their dark hot chocolate while playing a game of top trumps.”

  “Friendly, welcoming, great tasting coffee (with a biscuit! Love this place already) Fresh bread for your toast and jam that’s been buttered for you… perfect! Queen quietly playing in the background on the record player this is my dream cafe. Thoroughly recommended, thank you!”
