Needed a quick and easy stop after a 5.5hr journey to Eastbourne and before a days work. I had the full veggie breakfast which was amazing! All served with a smile to a nice little sunny table in the window.

I am very particular about food and I've been on the hunt for the best chips in Eastbourne and I think I've found them, bonus points for great bacon which is hard to find here and bonus bonus points for how nice the owners are, both so kind and friendly and funny

I had a cooked breakfast which was excellent, and reasonably priced for good quality food. I would 100% recommend. The Service was friendly and timely. The place is spotless, and I will visit again

Lovely staff, nice menu choice and very helpful. Very reasonably priced and nicely presented home style food. Definitely worth a visit, a first venture into this business and learning as they go.

My brother and I dropped in to grab a breakfast, he having been introduced to this venue by his son This is a real 'old school' cafe with genuine staff who work hard to give you the best experience from your visit. Everything is cooked from fresh and their bacon is outstanding... especially in their all day cooked breakfast. They offer several options and several sizes... this is particularly popular with the local builders. Highly recommended and it will be a favourite of mine on any future Eastbourne visit.
