Great puddings and this old boy loves their apple pie and custard. Very very clean environment and good visuals of the working kitchen which I appreciate.

The burger was nothing special if anything it was tasteless and overcooked and definitely not...
Read moreBenson Cafe is a gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere. Our waitress, Jodi, was outstanding—attentive, polite, and genuinely helpful, making sure we had everything we needed.
I ordered the Classic Chicken sub, and it was absolutely brilliant. Though the portion was on the smaller side, the flavors were spot on, and it was just the right amount to satisfy without feeling too heavy. Every bite was fresh, well-seasoned, and delicious. Amanda was lovely and made sure that we enjoyed the meal, you can definitely feel that the staff actually care about service and that's apart of the warm welcome.
The cafe itself is cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a quality meal. With excellent service and tasty food, Benson Cafe is definitely a place I’d visit again....
