Jones Coffee House — Restaurant in England

I must start by saying I am a Google guru, I travel the country with work as a tradesman and the first thing I do when I arrive is check Google for a good breakfast! Normally, I look for somewhere that could accommodate such site personnel, you know, the ones in the dirty work gear, effing an geffing about the "birds" they dabbled with the weekend. But seeing as I was on my own, and semi respectable on the builders scale, I decided to waltz in an give Jones a try. Very glad I did! Not one to lie, upon entering the establishment and picking up a menu, I was sharp to notice there was no sausage included on the traditional breakfast which immediately had me perplexed! But I was in now, and had no bottle to turn away, so I ordered it anyway with the friendly looking and talking lady at the counter. I had a little stroll around the new found premises to find a seat, and, wearing my site attire, I must admit initially I felt I was marginally out of place, but none the less I chose a throne, and awaited my feast whilst gazing upon the works group WhatsApp, informing the members of my current location. Not before long my manly café latte arrived with a most pleasant smile, shortly followed by the long awaited, 'friday breakfast with no sausage'! A man, clearly with many words to say, cannot find words to describe the sheer perfection of my satisfaction. In 14 years of the 'friday breakfast', never has one matched this of Jones. My only concern, which would never deduct a star of rating, is what the hell I will do when 10 dirty muddy foul mouthed site operatives land on...

Visited on a Saturday at 11am with my partner, it wasn’t overly busy and we opted to have a traditional breakfast with a cup of tea. Our order was taken quickly. We then waited 10 minutes for our drinks which wasn’t unreasonable however we then sat for 40 minutes waiting for our meals. When my partner got up to ask if the food was on its way, the waitress saw him and tried to walk away…..a limp apology for delay was given but no explanation or offer to refresh our drinks (tea was cold as we were waiting for meal). When the meal actually arrived the waitress apologised and told us the sausage had taken a while to cook!!? (The menu did not state there was sausage on the breakfast). The meal was not worth the wait, eggs were tasteless, beans were barely warm, bacon a little over done. My partner did not eat the sausage because he doesn’t like them and didn’t order it in the first place. I had high hopes for a lovely brunch in a cosy cafe but...

Visited this coffee house on Wednesday lunchtime. We sat out the back, I didn’t even realise that area was there. There was a gorgeous fire in the middle throwing out a lot of heat. Ladies serving were very friendly. We both had the soup and sandwich deal. The homemade soup was cauliflower cheese and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. For a treat, we both had cake, my friend had avocado and courgette I think, I had a caramel shortbread, very tasty. We drank tea and cappuccino and the total bill was about £25, which was reasonable for what we had. Will visit again when I am...
