Traditional English cafe which serves some lovely breakfasts amongst other things. It's only small though so don't be surprised at the weekend if the tables are full.

Quick service with a smile, great food, even better prices

Good food and quick service. Reasonable prices. Staff were friendly and attentive. Only downside is that it's cash only, but there are at least 3 cash machines nearby so not much of an issue.
