Wow I haven’t had a breakfast like that in a while all freshly cooked to perfection real pork sausage from a local farm. (Hard to find these days) loads to choose from. Really friendly staff. And the cafe is very clean.

I have recently moved to the area and have been looking for a decent cafe for light lunches and bites to eat and stumbled across this on the way to Grately station, and resolved to visit.I visited for a working lunch with some colleagues from my office and ordered a Bacon & Egg sandwich with a side of chips.Fully expecting the usual two slices and tiny egg I was surprised to see a loaded bun with an egg that still has a yolk. It was cooked to perfection with a crisp bite that allows more flavour through.The service was good. It was very busy and there was a slight wait but it wasn’t long and enough time to get some Sun before the food arrived.The menu has a selection for all. Burgers to salads, Baps and baguettes. Very good.Good prices, polite staff and good food. Will visit again.

Delicious food with a fun little atmosphere. I got the sausage & egg while my GF got the bacon, Brie, & cranberry; we both loved our dishes. Would absolutely recommend!

Stopped off on the way home from Winchester Hospital and was starving. Like a mirage, this place appeared. And did the bizzo. A chunky bacon butty delivered promptly and politely (but not too promptly, clearly cooked to order of course): what's not to like?
