My wife had the mild chicken riggies & I had the beer batter fish fry with home fries and I put gravy on them & I chose broccoli. The food was good. They’re open until 9pm on Fridays. Both of our waitresses were good. The only thing we didn’t care for was the use of a loud vacuum cleaner for several minutes. All customers kept looking around during this time waiting for it to stop.

The food is as mediocre as the plain red lettering above the cafe. The decoration is disjointed and old, the seats are torn, but it all lacks any retro charm.

We stumbled on this out of the way place and it was a good find we had the seafood combo it was good except they switched the haddock for a stronger flavored fish without informing us! That was a bit of disappointment for big seafood eaters . The hostess and waitress were exceptional the food was good and plentiful. The atmosphere was was nice you could have a nice dinner conversation without competing with loud music and obnoxious staff. We really enjoyed it. And are looking forward to returning

Excellent food, great portion sizes. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. A cast menu with something for everyone – breakfast and lunch! Thanks for taking care of us on Easter. Can’t wait to go back.

It was really busy when we got here. But the wait wasn’t too bad. The portion sizes are big and the food tastes pretty good. Though they did overcook the steak quite a bit, companion asked for it rare and it came out closer to well done. The chorizo has was really good and the philly omelette was decent but more cheese and less onions with a touch of salt would have made it perfect. Overall, will definitely be going back to try more of their dishes, the menu is really diverse with lots of options, it was hard to pick just one.
