Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is what most reviewers come for, with the small breakfast with hash brown called better than many in Leeds city centre and poached eggs on toast with beans described as perfectly cooked. Close behind is praise for friendly staff, prompt service, and food that arrives piping hot, fresh, and home cooked. Several call the cafe clean, one says spotless every time, and many mention good value for money. Lunch earns mentions too, including main meals and sandwiches. The complaints are few but specific. One reviewer describes being left waiting at an outside table, then told no orders are taken outside. The cafe had no sausages for the reviewer's dog, water and tea were slow to arrive, and the large breakfast was called basic and overpriced. Another reviewer was disappointed that the cafe closed earlier than its advertised lunchtime finish and had to settle for a supermarket meal. Among the lunch praise, one diner singles out a salad sandwich whose beef was home roasted and not out of a packet.
