It's not scenic, it's nothing more than a wonderful full English breakfast. They do have a limited menu with other items but if you want the best cafe breakfast around, this is the place for you. Ingredients are clearly high quality. Hash browns are cooked to a crispy perfection, full of flavour. Eggs are fresh, and the sausages are far from cheapo meat. Wonderful, I want to go back now and redo that breakfast from 10 hours ago. Edit: half a dozen visit has shown that customer service often lacks, expect terse replies and you will be told where to get your own condiments. I will also suggest asking for the Tomatoes (tinned) removed, or placed on a separate plate to save wetting the rest of the food.

If you didn't know it was there you would miss it. A clean cafe with welcoming staff. We had omelettes with salad and it was very nice. Toilets are in an out building and were clean and well maintained. Parking directly outside the cafe but it is part of a garden centre so you do get a little traffic go by. You can choose to eat outside or inside. The cafe was a lovely little find.

This is a fab place, hidden away next to a garden centre / Koi centre. A wide variety of food. Some home cooked. Excellent value and portions. Always well cooked and presented. Friendly staff and a pleasant atmosphere. I like to try different cafes but We always make excuses to go Greedy Cafe.

Disappointed to be fair at the size of the breakfast for the price. Food hot and presented well. Very clean environment. Guy serving wearing glasses very friendly and attentive. Will return, however will try other dishes.

Decent clean breakfast although it would of scored a 5* if the sausage hadn't of been dipped into the deep fat fryer,and the mushrooms weren't stewed alongside the condiments basket being old and rusty and the sauce bottles showing signs of wear . Other than that it probably the best place to have breakfast in Pitsea although out of the way , I did see however as to why some customers noses get put out of joint by one of the server's at the till likes an "F" & Jeff in the kitchen whilst at the sink considering I was at the other side of the restaurant it was pretty clear lol. but it's a caf so won't be too harsh it's got character.

Came here as searched for cafe’s in the area & this was close to my way home, arrived 8.15am, first impression was it was very clean, which post pandemic is a rarity. Served quickly at the counter & breakfast came within 10 minutes, all in all a decent quality breakfast, nice thick toast & cooked well, minor gripe was beans could have been hotter & bubble was mainly mash & only lightly fried (prefer more green veg mixed & fried more for colour & texture) but that’s what I’m used to so personal preference. Will definitely come again next week when in the area but go for hash browns instead of the bubble. Would definitely recommend for a good quality decent priced breakfast & most importantly spotlessly clean cafe

Been popping in before or after our visit to our friends Stud clinic so we've had our dog with us and we sit outside with her she also has a breakfast with us. Friendly staff and we leave with happy filled tummies. We 1st used this cafe 14 years ago when our cake maker took us in there for lunch to organise our wedding cake as she had a stall in there. We never forgot it, sadly she passed away but didn't forget the lovely food we had in this cafe that also has much more surrounding it. Hair stylist male and female next door, tattooist the other side, garden and pond behind and further to the side. Could happily spend a few hours in this little haven. Plenty of parking space and dog friendly what more could you ask for. Thank you to the staff for amazing service and accepting a our dog she loves going there now....pops her head up when we pull up and fights to get out for her sausage x
