Had to have a service done to my car around the corner and came here for lunch while me and my dad were waiting, the staff were so welcoming and positive and the food was absolutely delicious and well worth the price! Will definitely come back if I’m in the area again!

My mate takes me here when I visit. Lovely unfussy transport type cafe with friendly atmosphere and a keyboard, and 6 string and 12 string acoustic acoustic guitars for any customers that want to make a bit of music while they're there. Gets my vote

Used to work just round the corner from here, and went in for breakfast whenever I could. Excellent food, cooked fresh in front of your eyes, super friendly staff, and always a cheery atmosphere. The centre of Rudford Estate life..!!

What can I say..very generous portions at a very very reasonable price. The lady we met was marvellous and saw to our every need including saying a prayer for us, looking after my friends poor back, and even sang us a song on the piano. Easily the best food atmosphere price and service I've had anywhere.
