Not cheap but what is these days. Breakfast is absolutely rocking. You only have to look at the images to see this. Total cost £15 Approx RECOMMEND 5*
I enjoyed a full breakfast and latte. Travelling around i enjoy a cooked breakfast so have sampled many. This was up there amongst the best. The latte was particularly good. The breakfast components are of a high quality and were cooked well. A special mention for the home made rosti The breakfast cost was on the higher side but i can't argue when the food was as good as it was. Only criticism is the cafe is a little tired/worn inside. Will visit again hopefully
Warm, pleasant service on a crisp October morning. Perfect poached eggs with bacon, sausage and the best hash brown I've ever had. I'm not normally a hash brown guy, the deep fried frozen variety are a blight on the great British Brekkie plate, but these homemade ones are a revelation. And Yorkshire tea on a big ceramic pot to round it off.
Lovely wee place for a bacon sandwich or a cooked breakfast. Coffee delicious as was the food and the brownie was to die for. Highly recommended.
The gluten free vegetarian breakfast was lovely, nice gluten free cakes available, my daughter loved her biscoff milkshake. Overall great experience, will definitely be coming back 😊
