Beefeater Cafe in Calderdale - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Best place for chicken and chips & a nice cup of tea. Yeah the cafe looks run down but the food is brilliant, what you would expect from a greasy spoon. The chips are the best, try them you will not be disappointed

Visited twice recently and ate a Full English breakfast, and most recently sausage, chips and beans. Service was fast and friendly did not have to wait long for the food. Good value and the cafe is clean.

Visited Halifax on a Sunday & most places weren't open so we were glad when we chanced upon this greasy spoon. We loved the retro feel of it, so went in for a full breakfast & a spam sandwich. You order at the door, pay, then find a seat. With a coffee & a bottled soft drink, everything we ordered came up to £12.30. There are seats on the ground floor and also on the first floor. The tables & chairs were really old style & the carpets were super grimey - which completed the authentic greasy spoon look & feel! The cafe seems really popular, with a steady stream of customers. Service was friendly & quick. The breakfast came with 2 sausages, 2 bacon, 1 egg, 1 slice of spam, mushrooms, beans & tinned tomatoes. There were two slices of buttered toast on the side. The spam sandwich came in a massive barm. There were three thin slices of spam in the sandwich. The bacon was cooked well & browned enough, the sausages weren't too bad & were not the mushy, cheap variety. Mushrooms were in thin slices & browned nicely, spam would have been nicer if more crisp. The toast was thick & comforting & the spam sandwich felt hearty & filling. We couldn't resist getting the apple pie with custard (£3) after our brunch. The crust was a tad hard and it could do with more apple filling, but it was a nice, sweet treat to end our meal with. Some niggles: The menu price for the full breakfast was £4 for the sausages, bacon, egg & beans or tomatoes. Other items were priced at 60p extra per item. The staff didn't really check with us what items we would like - while the mushrooms, spam & toast were welcome, we wouldn't really have wanted the tomatoes. All in all, we enjoyed our visit to Beefeater. It's defo worth checking out when you're in town!
