Cracking breakfast in a traditional British greasy spoon, what is not to like. Extensive menu.

This my usual go to Cafe! It's a family run business that's ideal for when that primal urge to push food into your face takes over! It's serves traditional cafe style set breakfasts but still lets a customer pick and choose any number of variatons up to and including those who prefer something a little more vegetarian! Lunch and dinner menus are varied from stews to pasta dishes and beyond, being in all cases satisfyingly plentiful when served. In short, no complaints from me, good food well cooked, nothing too fancy but guaranteed to leave you suitably replenished and ready for the day!

This is the place I go to in the early hours of the morning to protect myself from the cold weather. It is open early and the breakfast is very good. Although I had breakfast in the morning, I ordered an English breakfast. I finished my entire plate while watching the street. The products on the plate are clean and carefully prepared. The price is very reasonable. I recommend it.
