We got the best breakfast Rolls with scrambled eggs and bacon. Freshly cooked, hot and it tasted so good. In addition, a really good americano coffee for a total price of £ 4 and very nice service. Social bite is open on weekdays Monday to Friday.

Good sandwiches. Nice and friendly atmosphere. Very good coffee (flat white) and chai latte. Surprisingly hot chocolate was not sweet. Had to add sugar ourselves. Well spent money 💰 for a good cause.

Great place to eat. I had a really nice soup and the coffee was great. Plus the pay it forward scheme is really admirable. Would definitely recommend it

This such a great idea and the food is good as well. Try the hot tuna melt and support a really good cause. You can also 'pay it forward' and buy a soup or sandwich for a homeless person to enjoy when they come into the cafe. The staff are very friendly as well.

Brilliant for morning roll and coffee! 😀 They also do rolls/sandwiches and soup for lunch. Prices are good and you'll be helping a very worthy charitable cause at the same time. Staff are most welcoming and food is delicious.

Not only are the food and service excellent, the whole thing is geared to the eradication of homelessness. The profits from the cafe and restaurant go towards the provision of hot food and drinks for local homeless people. This is fantastic and we should all pile in here regularly to support the cause.

I've just had their coconut chicken curry and it was excellent. Actually, everything I've bought her has been excellent, but that's only part of the point - the profits going to help homeless people, the fact that they help folk regain their dignity and get back into employment, and that all I need to do to support that is choose to buy my lunch on a different shop is a wonderful concept. And even better, I can help more by buying a meal or a drink for someone who needs it more than I do for them to eat/drink when they choose.

Had breakfast here and it was better than good. Delicious, filled breakfast rolls, coffees and tea. Super value and fantastic staff. You can make a difference by buying another meal for a homeless person 👍
