3 /5 Lisa Gwennap: Weve eaten here once before and the breakfast was very good.
We visited again 21st Feb 26 at 9:30am and it was very quiet, but nice.
The guy, I presume the manager, asked if we wanted the breakfast special, then told us in detail what the special was.
We were then left to ponder for a further 5 minutes. When the waitress took our order, I asked her to repeat the ingredients in the special, as Id struggled to absorb all the information the first time (age related foggy brain); she went and asked the manager for clarification, which is fine.
What did upset us however was the response from the manager. We could clearly hear him moaning and sounded irritated as to why we needed to be told the ingredients again, when hed already gone through the special with us in detail. We felt it wasnt fair for the waitress to be spoken to like that in a raised voice and I was made to feel bad by the manager for asking for information to be repeated. When the food did finally arrive, which was a very long wait considering the cafe was quiet, the plate was cold which meant the mushroom sauce was cold. The bubble and squeak, bacon and egg however were lovely and hot. The breakfast was really lovely apart from the mushroom sauce that didnt suit the dish at all.
My husbands English breakfast was delivered with scrambled eggs when fried eggs were ordered. By the time his breakfast was returned, Id eaten my meal.
I would highly recommend the food, but whilst the manager was very polite and kind to our faces, I didnt appreciate his tone behind our backs.
I didnt like how he called his waitresses girls either, they have names.
No one asked us about allergies.
I would eat there again as the food was lovely but.......
