The Bay Tree Cafe — Restaurant in England

I visited the Cafe with 2 children and three adults. As soon as I walked into the cafe the older woman did not look happy. Like she had just encountered a bad smell. Sniffily she said "Have you booked?" No welcome of any kind. I said "No" and she paused walked off and come back and said "You'll have to split between the two tables." Then walked off. A bit purturbed we sat down and she returned and snapped "There are two other customers being served before you." So I guess at this stage she is trying to say that your food will take ages to cook. To be hoenst it looked like a greasy spoon from the 60's so wasn't particularly inviting. Feeling like she didnt want us there it seemed like a good idea just to leave.

I have to say that it is possibly one of the nicest breakfasts I have ever had. If we ever have to travel to do any work in Torquay again I will be definitely volunteering just so I can visit this cafe again. Food is...

Had food here asked for no eggs and tomato on the all day breakfast and if they can swap it for an extra sausage. Recieved the food and we didn't recieve an extra sausage but was charged the full price. The lady giving us the drinks broke a glass and dropped one of the cans on the floor which she did not offer to swap so when I opened it. It went all over the floor, table and me. The chef ended up cleaning the glass and the lady did not apologise or acknowledge the mistake. Had to ask for a new can of drink after it went everywhere. Still hungry and won't be returning. Was charged £21.90 for 3 cans 2 breakfast ( 3 ingredients ) and...
