Cafe Monella

Cafe is located about eight to ten minutes walk north east of Aldrington Rly Station near to Sackville Road. I had a coffee only, which was reasonably good. The staff are welcoming. I ate no food, but the breakfasts smelt appetising and the diners said that they found them good. Customers order at the counter and the food is brought to the tables by the staff. There are some long wooden tables & benches outside on decking at the back. The men;s toilet was clean when I used it.

Early days for this little shop. The welcome is so friendly and the coffee is as good as it comes. Some tasty little pastries as well. Local mums will love the child friendly garden out the back where the young ones can safely entertain themselves while mum grabs a well deserved coffee break. I've taken my two Labradors in and they too have been made to feel welcome with a warm greeting and a cheeky dog treat. I hope the lack of immediate parking doesn't affect business as this little gem of a local business deserves to be really successful. Wayne

Very friendly and unpretentious family run cafe with some interesting decor and art work too. The lady who runs it was very kind to our young son and her daughter was helping out before she went off to school which was lovely we thought. Coffee was very good as was the sausage sandwich we had and prices are very reasonable for the area. I think they're in the process of renovating the garden which will be a lovely bonus touch if so.

This is a really nice spacious cafe I met a friend for breakfast on a cold winter's morning and couldn't have asked for a cosier spot It was during the working week and the other people were mainly mum's with young children, people working on laptops or having informal meetings The decor is very cool, the Dyson fighter jet on the ceiling made me smile They have a large trampoline in the garden area which will be great for children in warmer weather
