Sunshine Cafe & Restaurant — Restaurant in South Holland

Today, 17 February 2024, I went to this cafe with a friend. I had a cheese omelette, chips, beans and salad. My friend had breaded cod, chips, peas and salad. We ordered two teas which arrived promptly, and contained the tea bags and milk. The tea, by the time it arrived, had stewed.

My friend’s meal was unsightly! An over-fried piece of something from Iceland supermarket, whilst my food was tasteless to the extreme. Conversing with the ignorant manager, proved pointless.

We were able to sit outside, so we had a nice view of the centre and towards the river. Thoroughly recommended for a place to get some good honest food at a...

Oct '21 A busy Saturday, it's true, but we waited 40 minutes for a tea & a coffee & 2 omelettes. I guess the frustration was that we didn't even get an update, let alone our drinks while we waited. When, after 40 minutes the waitress, who was extremely busy, came to ask us what we ordered & confirmed nothing was ready for us, we decided to leave. Very poorly organised. Not clean. (We cleared our own table as most people had to) & clearly understaffed. Not very cleaver on the day of the annual pumkin festival when the town is obviously...
