not keen on the food. sausage very herby and flowery tasting. tomato seemed to be boiled rather than fried. bacon was tasteless. possibly boiled or microwaved? egg also possibly microwaved. plasticy.

Hearty & quality food! Provided with cutlery and sauces. The only thing I can say is the jacket potato was not as cooked as I personally prefer & the temp was not desirable upon arrival. Aside from that I will happily order again :)

Wrap and chips were delicious. Bit concerned about the carrot cake. It feels rock hard and frozen? Or it’s very cold and stale? Not sure about it unfortunately which makes me sad as I was really looking forward to it and it cost me £3.50

Mega breakfast was good, generally cooked nicely with good ingredients. Bread was cheap/old though sadly. Coffee was missing milk. Perhaps it was busy lunch hour so few things were missed. I'll try again next time and edit accordingly. Thanks.

Looking for the perfect ‘greasy spoon’ (it wasn’t greasy it was delicious lol) on our way home to the midlands from a gig last night (we over slept and missed the hotel breakfast). Stopped at 3 other cafes fist but they weren’t what we were looking for. This hit the spot. Next Colchester Dingus Khan gig we will definitely make this a stop on the way home. Great food and really lovely service.

All the goodness of a small cafe - friendly staff, homemade-style food you can customize (within reason) and reasonably priced. We had omelettes for lunch, which were hearty and filling, so had to take home the dessert (cakes) to have later.

Waited 25minutes for my collection after the collection time given on justeat. I was then given the food and it was implied i was a just eat deliver driver which i am not terrible customer service and extremely rude. Walk in customer were told food orders would be a 15-20min wait which is not acceptable when these are peoples lunch hours. They have clearly taken on to much at this place and cannot handle the demand.

I’ve visited and had deliveries from this establishment on several occasions, and have never been disappointed with the service. From the moment you arrive, you are welcomed with friendly and professional staff, the food is always cooked fresh ( so there maybe a slight wait, but is worth it ) but the food when it arrives is hot and plentiful and presented well … your spoilt for choice for what you’d want as there is a large varied selection to choose from … Today for example I sat in with a colleague and we both had the Mega Breakfast, and as always was really lovely. I would highly recommend and will continue to visit because of its superb service, very clean surroundings and great food.

RUDE RUDE RUDE - Customer service appalling! Please don't waste your money here. Today I ordered online and previously ordered on three occasions the brie, bacon & cranberry melt and twice added comments asking for a decent amount of bacon as previous orders have had very little despite paying for an extra rasher (which actually was only a couple of extra tiny squares cut up). When I placed my order today, I put in the comments asking for a decent amount of bacon as before it was just like eating a jam sandwich. Owner called me shortly afterwards to say she was there last time when my previous order came through and watched the server make it (poor girl). I replied and said I was amazed she remembered and said that there wasn't the extra bacon I had paid for. Because she was so rude, I kindly asked her to cancel my order. After the call, I popped over as I work next door and asked that she refunded me only for her to just go on about the bacon again. I let her know that her customer service was appalling and I won't be returning. I've been a customer there for 10 years and since the new ownership, I've seen it slowly go down hill. BTW, the staff here are lovely and are always welcoming and friendly, maybe the owners should take a leaf out of their book and also book onto some customer service training too!

Since Chef's was taken over and rebranded to Cafe Plus, the service has gone down hill. We used to order regularly, but since the change the service is not as good as it was. We were given a time of 10:00 - 10:15 am for delivery, but we had to call them just before 11:00 to find out where the delivery was. We were then advised it would be another 10 minutes. We eventually got our order an hour after the time we were supposed to have received it. They did not even call us to advise there would be a delay. This is not the first time for a late delivery from them.

Myself and 5 colleagues turned up at 10am, there was 4 people in front just ordered, plus 2 behind us so a total of 12 people in the cafe We get to the till to be told there is a 25 minute wait, we'll its either look for somewhere else to go but we thought 25 minutes won't be too bad. Well the 25 minutes came and went, when finally asked at 40 minutes how much longer to wait they said the food is on its way. 2 breakfasts came out then a good 5 minutes passed before anymore came out, I was nearly finished before we all had our food. The wait was certainly not worth it, the eggs are precooked and cut like rubber, tinned mushrooms, small tinned tomatoes which tasted horrible, the positive things was real bacon, good Hash browns. I will never return there especially if its busy as its a shambles when quiet and definitely don't recommend going there especially if your in a rush

Its a shame that the new owners have invested more in their branded bags and sandwich wrapping rather than the actual quality of the food i.e the bread isn’t from a locally sourced bakery, sausages and bacon aren’t from a local butcher. Even the condiments are cheap supermarket own brands! This is OK if you enjoy a ‘greasy spoon’ cafe but I think it’s very overpriced considering the lack of quality food. I would thoroughly recommend Park News deli next to Mimosa for a good ciabatta or wrap and is cheaper and you get more for your money!

This place used to be great, but over recent weeks it's been appalling. Items missing from orders, cold food, late deliveries. We thought it was the web ordering so decided to phone the order through today. We were told there was a wait and delivery would take 45-50 minutes... fair enough, after chasing them at 1 hour we were apologised to and told chef is on the breakfasts now... after another hour we called to cancel the order as it was now closer to lunchtime!! 10 minutes later the delivery arrives and we explain we canceled only to witness a full on shouting match between the driver and her boss through our open door - we had to apologise to our clients who witnessed the shouting and screaming from the other end of our telephone. I am sure the screaming match could have taken place in the drivers car, not throughout our offices. We've stuck it out for weeks, hoping things would improve, but for now, especially with the disgusting and unprofessional behaviour on our door step, we are done. I hope they sort it out

Considering this pub serves food I was disgusted by the loos writing all over the walls and to kick it off no soap to wash your hands
