Of course I've eaten plenty of brassicas over December. But also loads of rubbish. Including some not very fine moments, like a breakfast of cheeselets and stollen; or a dinner consisting mostly of cheese. Jan 1st brought a brisk beachside stroll and a desire for proper simple and healthy food to re- start the year well. This place offered exactly what was needed. Avocado and raw onion omelette sorted me out and I'm telling myself that the sweet potato fries are understandable, given the weather. The owner here runs an amazing setup. Good food, relaxed vibes, friendly but mega efficient staff, and cool decor, all in a beautiful seafront arcade with indoor and outside seatingand plenty of room upstairs too. This cafe is dog friendly, queer friendly, family friendly, senior citizen friendly - let's just say friendly. Pupkin was treated to free sausage. We enjoyed our visit. Special shout out for Teapigs tea. We had a chilli chai latte that was perfectly made and shows up exactly what a horrible sweet unspicy goo is the chai you get in most cafes. No instant sugary powder milk drink here, but a careful blend of real tea and spices with the correct balance between water and milk. I could drink this daily. If you're around Worthing seafront, give this gem of a...
Read moreI figured I would try this quaint little café with my son today. My little boy is ASD and was counting the little packets of sugar on the table to which we were both told abruptly by the server (I assume the owner) that he couldn't do that and vaguely indicated us to a box with dilapidated old books and apparently colouring... without bringing anything over or offering something. I wasn't going to rummage through that box. And my son was quite content, quiet and well behaved. When we were told for the second time I knew that this was an unwelcoming place and hastened to leave as soon as possible. Unfortunately I had to wait a few agonising minutes because they don't take card and I had to do a bank transfer... Sigh.
I was thanked by a different member of staff on my way out at which point, it was too little too late but I wish she'd served me and not the owner!
The apple juice served to my son was tiny in the large cup as if the tide had gone out. My flat white was also much too frothy.
Wouldn't recommend, great that they are dog friendly but clearly not...
Read moreFirst time we went today.
What an amazing welcome, made to feel very welcome.
Food was excellent. Genuine homemade burger and superb chunky chips.
A hidden gem.
We’ll be back.
…..Came back today. Busy bad sadly the standard was far poorer!
My wife ordered beans on toast (beans extra hot) with a fried egg on top.
What she actually got was a plate of toast that needed to be buttered and a separate plate with like warm beans and a fried egg.
Requested that the beans be heated up, when that plate returned the beans were hotter but the egg was not hot !!!
Hot chocolates weren’t…..hot that is!
Appreciate they were very busy, which is why we were prepared to wait 30 minutes for our meal but when you revive it you don’t expect what we got.
Disappointing after first impressions but the owner was very apologetic and gave...
