I absolutely love this place. It feels like you’re sitting at you own kitchen table almost. Each time I go there is a set of regulars that it’s nice to say hello too. The breakfasts are so tasty and cooked fresh to order. Each time we have been in we have been made to feel so welcome. Would recommend going in hungry as you’ll certainly be full when you leave. Cannot recommend enough.

Great little café, lovely decor and great choice of the menu and on the boards both for meat lovers and veggies..... Had the small brekkie and was able to have fried bread instead of toast which was a bonus and a great taste!! Had chips....only downside was I like mine crispy and they were not....tasted great but not crispy...will ask to be crispy next time... SO WILL BE BACK.... ANY CHANCE OF YOU CAN ADD KIDNEYS AND KIPPERS TO THE BREKKIE MENU...AND LIVER AND BACON AND MASH .....YUM YUM??
