Now I haven't eaten breakfast everywhere in Caleta de Fuste, Fuerteventura. And I am fairly certain that is impossible unless you live there as there are so many greasy spoon cafes. But of the 6 we have eaten, trying the biggest breakfast on the menu, (each one having its own unique name for it.) this one sets the bar. The British Corner is keeping up the British End. Not only is the breakfast really good, but what impresses me the most is the little extras. For example This is one of the only places that has fresh orange juice for order. Everyone else only serves from a carton, a small thing but really important for a breakfast done right. The toliets here are one of the best, very clean. Ok so the toliet is not in the cafe, due to location and only a short distance away. And the keys are attached to a Christmas bauble, which has a bit of humour when many people need to use the toliets at the one time. Finally they frost the glasses for beers. That is a small touch the means a big difference to the punters. And while my wife would kill me for having a breakfast beer, I really did appreciate that effort from a small cafe. The fried mushrooms here are actually shallow fried, some other places deep fat fry it, which leaves the wrong taste on it. The mushrooms were salted perfectly. Sadly the sausages here are much the same as everywhere. There's nothing any cafe can do about this, as it's an island with limited products issue. But they do offer a patty "square" sausage which I had to try. And can stay it's far different and better than any other English breakfast served on the island. Everything was delicious and I made the obligatory toasted brekkie sandwich and wasn't disappointed. Again one of the only places that give two full slices of Bimbo toast, rather than cutting one piece in half. (Bimbo is the brand, if you're wondering.) If there was one vague, not a criticism, and not mine. My wife preferred the Coffee elsewhere. But that is a personal taste thing, and even the next table over agreed with us on how good it was. And they were Scottish, they are really hard to impress. (I kid) This is the best greasy spoon cafe I have visited here, and I high recommend...
Read moreMe and my partner came here for lunch several occasions and I was amazed at how organised, friendly and welcoming the two couple who owned the business were, we looked forward to going back every afternoon to see them both, food was tasty, well cooked, loads to choose from and the prices were really cheap. They sell the usual typical British food good for those who want to trust there usual foods from home. Me and my partner wish both the couple a very successful future and look forward to returning in September where it’ll be our go to stop for lunch/breakfast.
Edit 27/09/22 - came back to realise the couple who owned it for years have unfortunately sold it on to new owners, the new owners didn’t say hi to any customers when sat down, looked stuck up, staff were rather bland no welcoming or communication, food wasn’t as nice as before. Such a shame it was sold on,...
Read moreI have been to Caleta a good few times but not for a few years. We were slightly disappointed when we went to el patio, for a place that was very good the quality has slipped. Off the back of that disappointment we look for something different, we tried a little bar that looked like a little bar, we was surprised at the menu and decided to give it a try, we weren’t expecting great food but was pleasantly surprised to find they did some great food, everything we had was homemade and cooked fresh, not only that it was delicious! Don’t walk past this place, dropping and give it a try, it might not have the backdrop of one of the big food places but the people are nice, they have good food at a good price. We will...
