Best place for a bacon and egg toasted butty. I'm fussy when it comes to bacon but this was perfect bacon super well done and crispy gorgeous egg's. All the food in this place is outstanding and it's cheap. Everytime we go it's always the one fella by himself but he still does a great job all by himself even when it's busy! Will always be going back :)

Even though I was not in the best of moods I got a lovely welcome from Chris. I was surprised to find out that he cooked my breakfast as well. I had the small breakfast which was hot....yes I repeat I have found a place that serves hot food and I was aloud to judge for myself when it was cool enough to eat! Sausage, bacon,egg, beans, tomato, toast and tea for the great price of £4.25 I throughly enjoyed every last bite. Chris was not the only nice, competent member of staff. Although I was not served by him personally I noticed Andy was just as nice and cared about his customers and the quality of the food and obviously is rightfully proud of this eatery. Thank you boys you turned my frown upside down
