Been using this cafe for years when in the area. Always good food served with a cheery homely smile. Thinking about it makes me hungry lol. 5 Star.

An excellent find, great value for money. Good banter with the locals and pleasant atmosphere. I was working in the area for a week and was in there every day (closed on Monday's though) and can recommend the Sunday dinners- the best I've every had - but get there early, it's really busy on Sunday. Good range of well-cooked foods, very reasonably priced.

Wow, I've often walked past this quaint little cafe, so today I decided to pop in and give it a try ( yes, I'm a person whom likes things a certain way, plus as a chef I'm over curious about whom cooks for me), So, after a gentle wandering around I thought why not, try it nothing to loose, and, boy was I surprised by everything indeed. Staff was so polite and friendly, place was warm and cosy too. Not like most place were they keep doors open hoping for customers, or having loud music playing, again hoping for customers. I ordered a large breakfast, thinking it'll be the usual standard small plus extra bacon, NO, it came with everything plus more, to the point I was unable to finish it,my tea was how tea ( in my views) should be,not too dark,not too light, just the right brew for me. I found everything clean,tidy, relaxing, staff are a full credit to this establishment, will I be returning???? Of course, Why? Because I want to try their Sunday roast, which I understand you need to book early as they run out fast. So folks, pop by, try for yourself.

Great value breakfast... I have a medium one at about nine in the morning and it lasts me until tea time! The food, service, and staff are all wonderful. I've been having breakfast there every weekend for about ten years and don't see any reason to stop.
