Whitburn Coffee House — Restaurant in England

Was recommended this place by a local. However will never visit again. Straight away I could smell wet dog, smelly feet and body odour. We ordered two full English breakfast and a toasted sausage sandwich along with a latte and cappuccino. Let's start with the breakfast - Luke warm, tinned sloppy mushrooms, pale cold baked beans and sausage/ bacon that appeared to have been reheated rather than cooked fresh. The only decent part of the breakfast was the toast and the egg. The toasted sausage sandwich was atrocious and just tasted of charcoal. Now for the worst Cappuccino I have ever tasted and I am not exaggerating. I love coffee and not many places can get it too wrong but this tasted so bitter like either the same coffee beans had been brewed over and over and over again or the coffee machine had never been cleaned, whatever it was, it was the most terrible coffee I have ever had. I only had a few sips and added tons of sugar to try and make it drinkable but was too disgusting. Bringing the fact to the staffs attention was met with a 'what do you want? Another one is going to taste the same'. I never asked for another as I was giving them feedback and I never even got to mention the terrible food, service, dog smell and the people who came in whilst I was trying to eat my food with their dogs trying to eat my shoe!!!! To top it off, pay by card and you get charged 20p for the privilege.

If you like egg on toast and are nose blind then this is the place for you...

My sister and I popped into the Whitburn, as we usually do for lunch when we're in town. I normally have either bacon and mushoom baguette or bacon and cheese on toast. Today i was asked how many slices of bacon i wanted, i was surprised because i've never been asked before. I usually order and pay. The blonde cook said its £1 per slice (rasher) so i mentioned i've never been asked before so she says again its £1 per slice. If the prices have gone up why don't they just change the prices on the menu card not try and make customers look like theyre stupid. How do i know how much bacon fills up a baguette, for a sandwich i'd say 3 or 4. I've been in there enough times to know i've never been asked how much bacon i want. With the sandwich was a big side salad which i left. We have never had a large salad with it before and i've never had salad at all when i've had the baguette. I always tell people how nice it is in there but perhaps its time for us to try elsewhere. Its not nice to 'pretend' you've always asked how many slices of bacon...

We visited here this week for the first time and loved it. The decor was really nice, although a bit cramped with too many tables, and staff seemed very friendly. The cakes on the counter looked lovely but we didn't try any of those. Couldn't see the prices of them on the menu or counter which was strange as the price for everything else was on the menu. The coffee was good. I had the poached egg on toast which was very good. Although, would've been easier if the butter was already on the bread as no butter under the egg and both eggs only on the one slice of toast rather than one on each with butter already on it. My parents had the bacon sandwich and sausage sandwich, both of which were very nice. Would come again sometime. Very...
