Totally recommend. Very busy on a cold Saturday lunch time, shows that it’s good.
Cash only.
Service was hit and miss but very friendly when waved at. We saw people that came in after us get their breakfasts, pay and leave before we got our food. Waited 40 minutes for our food. We did tip because it was very busy and the food when received was very good.
We both had a breakfast with a mug of tea and two slices of toast and we paid £17.20 in total.
I will visit again.

When we advised that was no toilet roll in the men’s loo some bloke I can only assume the manager as not in uniform was very sharp and said I’m very busy at this stage the cafe was only half full nothing like it was when we arrived. The staff behind the counter working hard had a completely different response and said they would sort it. The ladies / disabled toilet was interesting for a disabled person. The loo roll holder was practically on the floor and the soap dispenser I had to reach for and I’m 5ft 10 and there was soap all dripping down the wall a child or someone in a wheelchair would have got no soap.
Lovely food, reasonably priced and great service. Highly recommend eating here. Tried something different to the normal breakfast today chicken curry, chips and salad. I must say it was exceptional, give it a try you won't be disappointed.
I'm a frequent user of this cafe in my home town and you can get some great value breakfasts and meals here. The staff are friendly, service good and there's lots of tables inside with plenty of room. The portions are very generous and it serves the biggest and best cappuccino in town in my opinion! I recently had lunch here, the Cajun chicken with a huge side salad and rice (you could choose chips instead of rice); it was really good!
Just be aware, this cafe only takes cash, no cards accepted.
I've been quite a number of times over the past year. Each time with my baby. The staff have always been incredible, always happy to help with any requests, and even when it is super busy, everyone is served quickly.
They have high chairs available for babies, and outdoor seating for the nice weather. The food portions are amazing, and the cost is really reasonable. They have a good range of options on their menu. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who fancies a good meal!
Lovely food, friendly staff. Fantastic service all in all. Will definitely come back again soon!! Thank you. 👍
A few reviews say meals are expensive. You are joking are you not? A pub restaurant will charge you anything from 25% to 50% more, depending on the menu and it won't be as tasty or as plentifull. One review says they only take cash and not card and must therefore have 'something to hide'. Rubbish! Do you know what banks charge businesses for debit/credit card payment facilities? Hundreds of ££££ even for a small family run firm and this is why the Victoria Cafe can hold prices down. They also have only one cafe to run and not a chain and this is another reason why their overhead costs are less. Some customers, and
only a very small number, should think again before expressing such comments. This is a well run business with excellent staff and a menu delivering good quality food and in good quantity at all times. 10 out of 10 for the Head Chef!! Enjoy the food, watch your waistline and walk it off along the promenade afterwards!
