Ordered breakfast and buffet for 9 people over the coronation weekend for my wedding. The breakfast rolls were well worth the money. Tasty and fresh. The wedding buffet did let us down majorly on the other hand. Missing from the savoury platter were 4 main items without being told. Mini Quiches, mini scotch eggs, potato skins & mini pizza . They were replaced with very cheap fried catering style nuggets with various filings inside. All tasted horrid, and we had to try and guess what they were. Before throwing them away. As we ordered 2 of these trays the disappointment doubled. We also ordered 2 x eastern platters, whilst these were correct in ingredients they were all pale beige and lacking visual appeal. The sandwiches, rolls and fruit all great. And the mini cakes platters were a huge disappointment and nothing like as described the same as the platters. I did write to the owner to let him know of my disappointment. Of which he could only comment about a lack of ingredients from suppliers. Which isn’t an acceptable excuse and I just feel it saved him a fair bit of money instead with cheap and nasty fried breaded products. Don’t advertise what you can’t deliver, let alone possible allergy risk...

We were greeted by a lovely smiley girl on the counter who took our order of 2 English Breakfasts and a tea and coffee. We had 2 x bacon, 2 x sausage, 2 egg, 2 hash browns, beans and mushrooms with a slice of toast. Sauces and condiments on the table. A very good size breakfast for just £8 each. Easy to pay on card. The plates and drinks were brought to our table swiftly. It a clean and pleasant cafe, bright and nice to eat in. The menu is varied with something for everyone. I will definitely be back and would recommend for sure. Next time I must try their cakes and bakes as they looked delicious. Also saw their sausage rolls which came out of the oven while we were ordering a...
Read moreAsked for a buffet for 6, for the weekend of the Queen’s funeral, with only a couple of days notice. Despite this, they were happy to oblige, and between us we sorted a convenient collection time. The food selection was great, particularly enjoyed the savoury selection, it was a nice change from just the traditional choices, but there were the usual sausage rolls and crisps etc in there too. The fruit kebabs were a welcome counterfoil to the sweet little mini cake platter, and the sandwiches stayed nice and fresh for 2 days and were well filled with a cracking selection of flavours. Thanks...
