Le Cafe Ganmac — Restaurant in Folkestone and Hythe District

After visiting this establishment for years,which we would enjoy our lunch even though we would put up with the cold in the winter because there was no heating in the cafe, however on our last visit and being on a diet l asked if l could order a salad with tuna,the two assistants behind the counter both got confused by my request,they then asked the owner if they could do a salad with Tuna,and his response was to pull a face and tell me we don't do salads with a face that could break a mirror....now as regular customers he sells jacket potatoes with salad and with tuna,so what was the problem with tuna salad,so l cancelled my mother's order and we left,and as we left there was no apology from the owner, because he seems more worried about messing about with the youngsters he employs,so we went down the street to the sunshine cafe where were its lovely and warm and we had a great salad,just make sure if you go to the Le Cafe Ganmac wear your thermals,and go in there at lunch time when...

We ordered a full English and it was delicious 😋 toast with anchor butter portion on the side - cooked as requested (bacon well done and sausage cut in half and griddled), perfect fried egg (not snotty), decent coffee and friendly staff. We will...
