Morrisons Chippenham Cafe

An easy breakfast on a busy Saturday morning. And such a bargain too! 2 for £10 to feed two adults and that included a much needed pot of tea. I was happy that on the menu (online ordering) you can remove what you won't eat on the breakfast (which saves on waste). A tasty meal and will return in the near future I'm sure.

Tried to get Xmas Lunch at Morrison's Bath on Sunday only to be told ONLY bfast was available at 3pm!! So imagine my angst to be told at Morrison's Chippenham that Xmas Lunch was over at 3pm today!! Richard the Chef over heard my dejection and offered to do me one. What a star and it was absolutely brilliant. He should be on the New Years honours list!!!

Went there for a Saturday breakfast with my family and I can't complain about the food. It was nicely cooked and delicious, so no issues there. But it was the service that let this place down. At the till, we were served by someone who was apparently the café manager, but he seemed to limited knowledge of their menu. The meals we ordered were supposed to come with fried bread, according to the menu, but the manager was adamant they didn't and gave us a choice of toast instead. When the meals did arrive, they did have fried bread with them, so we ended up with that and toast. Because of COVID-19, the manager was taking people's orders and then directing them to a table, but he sent quite a few people to tables that hadn't been cleaned. As there were plenty of clean tables, several people just moved to another table, taking their table number with them, which must have confused the servers! But they ought to have had a better system to allocate tables, or at least have more people cleaning tables. To be fair, from the frazzled look on staffs' faces, I'm guessing they were short-staffed that day, which is all the more common with COVID-19 doing the rounds. I do sympathise with them and I'm sure they were trying to make the best of a bad situation. One other plus point is that they were also offering Eat Out to Help Out seven days a week, so we got a discount even though it was a Saturday!

Slow service at busy times but the staff are doing 2 jobs at the same time and they are polite and hard working and very helpful. I had cod chips peas onion rings and coffee all for £3.12p. The chips were almost cold but for £3 I'm not complaining. In these covid times we have to accept little things like this. For a cheap feed up you can't go far wrong. So I recommend Morrison's.

Ordered on the touch screen ordering device, worked quite well, but I accidentally ordered two coffees. The food arrived in about 5 minutes. The chips and pie looked a little over done and the peas were a bit anemic, however it all tasted good. It was reasonably priced and the staff were friendly and professional. The cafe appeared clean and well decorated. I would eat here again.
