About Home to Roost Cafe
On Warrington Rd in Wigan, Home to Roost Cafe is a cafe that opens every day during the daytime. The kitchen serves cooked breakfasts built from bacon, sausage, mushrooms, eggs, black pudding and hash browns, with toast alongside. Sausage and egg barns are on the menu too, with home made fillings. Tables are available for eating in. The business also trades as JC Smash Burgers on Wigan Eats, where burgers are ordered ahead in advance of collection or delivery, so the cafe's breakfast service runs next to a separate burger offer.

Customer Review Summary
Delivery draws the heaviest criticism. Several reviewers who ordered breakfast through delivery apps report cold food, grey eggs, burnt toast "like a brick" and missing items such as sausage, bacon on toast, mushrooms and a hash brown. One describes a delivery taking nearly two hours, and another says the shop gave no apology and ended the call when they rang. One reviewer got four buns instead of the bin lids they ordered, with no acknowledgement of the error or offer of a refund. Another says an order was taken but never delivered, and a separate reviewer describes a pre-order burger delivery left on the step with no way to cancel.

“Ordered breakfast bin lids, bacon, sausage,mushrooms, eggs and black pudding Arrived: 4 buns No sausage Added hashbrown (cold) Bacon (cold) Mushroom (cold) Egg (cold) Tinfoil wrapped but COLD Called cafe, "we've got no bin lids so we split them, I know which order it is I'll speak to the driver" No acknowledgement of the order being wrong or being refunded or replaced. Pretty sure it's not the drivers fault it's the wrong order he's delivering Possibly its his fault it was cold, however if the order isn't correct the chances are you left it to go cold before he collected it is more likely the issue. Extremely disappointed! And out of pocket because I probably won't get a refund and like hell will I eat replacement.”
