As a roadside food stop, this is an absolute gem. Whenever I get the chance I'll stop for a bacon and hash brown sandwich. It's always cooked freshly and to perfection and so the stop is always well worth it.

Brilliant I've always had the number one breakfast

Found by accident, but always now visit when in the area. Food is cooked to order, always tasty and served up the way you want it. Love having my tea in a good-sized mug with big enough handles to hold with limited hand function and good strength. Now, it is not great for access but will come to your vehicle to get an order or ring it in, either way always willing to help customers and service with a smile.

Stopped by for a takeaway breakfast as staying the local campsite, service was quick and food was excellent. Had a full breakfast and two baps. Sausages were great and the well done bacon I asked for was perfect. Will be stopping by again when we are in the area

Only had a bacon sausage and egg sandwich, but to be fair. It was delicious. The lady was nice and friendly.

Passing by and stopped for a quick bite to eat and was not disappointed! Absolutely lovely cheese burger, generous cheese amount, salad was fresh and crunchy and the bap was super soft and perfect for the burger! Would recommend if you're passing and was a very fair priced eat! Thank you!

We stopped for breakfast on our way back from Wales, arriving around 10 as we were quite hungry. This is a small, privately run business with a very friendly owner, offering a good variety of breakfast options. There are camping toilets available, although unfortunately there was no water for washing hands. The shop itself is spacious enough, with seating both indoors and outdoors. We ordered the vegetarian breakfast, which cost around £8 each, and were pleasantly surprised by the generous portions and how delicious it was. I really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend a visit. If the weather allows, sitting outside makes it even nicer.
