Throwback cafe offering a great choice of quality food at fair prices. Mandy, partner and staff are friendly and ultra helpful. I'll be looking to visit again next time I'm in Eastbourne.

Family friendly cafe! The staff are so lovely & was very accommodating. They were amazing with my son and when I needed to breastfeed him, they let me into the back so I felt more comfortable which I massively appreciated& the food was amazing!

Fantastic staff, great food and really good value for money! This was the first time I visited, I didn't fancy any of the set breakfasts so was pleased that I was able to make my own with no fuss. The coffee was good quality as well as the food... I've found my new favourite café!

I went to visit a friend in the area and we came here a couple of times to get breakfast. Super tasty, friendly waiters/cooks, and delicious food at a good price. The place feels cozy and welcoming. Thank you! Will be back!

Brilliant quaint cafe in Eastbourne. Visited with my mate after a morning run. We both cleaned up two huge full English breakfasts. Sat outside and enjoyed the sun. Fast, friendly service and good food.
