This cafe is of the highest standard in my opinion. Service is always with a smile and Lisa our server is always very friendly and helpful when we visit. The food is tasty and well cooked, the fish and chips are the best in the area and the curry is superb. The Chef is not stingy with the portions either, there's always plenty on the plate. The seating area is large and clean with views over the downstairs sale rooms on one side and the large car park on the other. Prices have increased slightly but the quality justifies it I think. It's a good place to eat even if you don't want to go to the auction downstairs.

Enjoyed a fantastic breakfast today . The food is well cooked and of a high quality, filling and a pleasant surrounding, not full of builders and scaffolders swearing and being uncouth.. Will return and enjoy again .
