We called in for lunch as it was a nice day and they have outdoor seating. We had a lovely salad with lots of different ingredients: roasted vegetables, spicy potato wedges, coleslaw, green salad, tomatoes, pitta bread and really nicely done Coronation Chicken. The portions were huge and just £7.95. Lovely coffee and service. Our favourite in Brackley for lunch.

Popped in for a quick Saturday lunch and was impressed by the quality of food and warmness of the welcome. I had a very chunky tuna mayo and cucumber sandwich (with excellent granary bread) together with a tasty side salad. All for £5.50. Great value.

What a great discovery this place has been! Have visited several times now and on each occasion, the food has been delicious! The granary bread gets a special mention - when used as a toastie, it was both delicious & filling! The milkshakes are also to die for! In fact, there has been nothing that I would not have again. Love, love love the food and it is run by very friendly people too - always helps!!

I visited the Courtyard Cafe again recently with my family and 7 other friends. The food is delicious and such large amounts! One of my favourites is the cheese toastie - scrumptious thick homely bread and full of hot bubbling cheese! Coleslaw on the side if wanted. In fact, next time I will share one because unless one has an enormous appetite, it's too much! Their quiches are gorgeous too. One needs to visit and enjoy the lovely food! Not expensive either!

We asked for directions in the town and got talking to a "local" who recommended this gem. From the number of "reserved for" labels on tables, it was clear that we were lucky to get seated and it's a popular venue. Our lunch was delicious, delivered with a smile and very good value we felt.

We are fortunate in Brackley that we have a few cafes to choose from, but my favourite is the Courtyard Cafe. The home made quiche is delicious, generous portion and very reasonably priced. Also, they do a very good salad, which is not just the usual tomato, lettuce and cucumber, but with homemade potato wedges, roast vegetables and lots of other interesting ingredients. It is always full which is a good sign and

Oímos informes muy buenas sobre este café, así que poco después de que habíamos abierto, decidimos intentarlo. No estaba particularmente ocupado cuando fuimos y encontramos una mesa. Una camarera era de ida y vuelta a otras mesas y traté de coger su ojo para ver si era el servicio de mesa o si necesitaba pedir en el mostrador. Nos dio el beneficio de la duda y esperamos alrededor de cinco minutos, en la que el tiempo, ella nos había pasado un par de veces, pero no hizo ningún intento de comunicarse. Ambos luego fuimos a puesto en el mostrador. Había un hombre lavando y la misma camarera detrás del mostrador. Ni nos miraba. Nos paramos un par de limones para al menos otro cinco minutos, mirando el menú y hablamos de lo que nos gustaría. Todavía no acuse de cualquiera de los miembros del personal. Era como si fuéramos completamente invisible! Así, la frustración, volvimos a la mesa, recoge nuestras pertenencias y salimos. No tengo ni idea de por qué no podían haber dicho que estaría con nosotros pronto o algo a ese efecto. Nos hicieron sentir dos pulgadas de alto. No volveré.

Cafe era moderadamente lleno, pedí una papa al horno, chili había acabado (lo cual es bastante en ese momento del día), así que quedamos con queso brie, tocino y cebolla con un Chai latte.

My father and I went into this cafe on Saturday the 27th of July. We ordered 2 paninis. After half an hour we asked politely if they were on their way. The older lady behind the counter so rudely replied to me in a harsh tone "they will be, everything is made to order it doesn't just sit there there are people before you." I was so shocked I asked my dad to get our money back and leave as we had to get somewhere. Again when he went up and politely said "I'm sorry we have to leave" he was snapped at saying "they don't just sit there ready to go in." There were only 4 tables in this was terrible. A nearby table heard this and were shocked at the way we were spoken to. This cafe clearly does not want repeat custom and we shall be telling our friends and family not to go here.

We use Brackley as a half way place for stopping on our journey to South London and discovered this delightful cafe as the perfect place for a relaxing snack or lunch. It serves a varietof breakfast foods, midmorning 11s, lunches and teas. All freshly cooked and cheerfully served. The staff are most friendly and helpful. It seems to be a hub for local customers to meet, chat and eat. There are copies of the daily papers to read. It is suitable for families with young children and there is a choice ofcomfy settee seating and coffee tables for relaxing in as well as cheerful wipeable clothed tables and chairs inside and outside in the courtyard. Our most recent visit was with our 35yr old son and his partner who had just been on a safari holiday in Kenya. A bacon, sausage and egg sandwich for breakfast was just the ticket after 20hrs of travelling.

We stopped here for lunch, to break up a long drive from East Anglia to the West Country, avoiding service stations. It was pouring with rain when we went, and it wasn't where we were intending to eat but that was closed, so it was a bit of a mad dash to get out of the rain. The staff were friendly there was a good choice on the menu and a lovely atmosphere in the cafe. Also glad to find that as well as ample highchairs there were baby changing facilities too.

My wife and I visited this café to break up a long journey. We had been there a umber of years ago for lunch and had felt it was poorly run and over priced. We were looking to have a drink and some cake and considered going to the Costa which had opened up on the main road but wanted to support the local area. The café was quiet at 3-ish and we were promptly served, we ordered two pieces of cake, a cappuccino and a milkshake. Our first issue was that the milkshake price wasn't displayed and the woman after some looking around decided that it cost £4 (four!) which I didn't question in the hope it was something very special. The drinks came and the coffee was scalding hot and completely tasteless. The milkshake was like Crusha mix with some ice cream, artificial flavour and served in a normal glass with no cream or anything fancy you'd expect when paying that price. The coffee cake I had had clearly been sat uncovered for most of the day and so was completely dried out. To say we were disappointed is an understatement, at least if we'd gone to Costa we would have received an average coffee and cake, it's a shame that I'm no longer willing to take that risk.

We both ordered toasted sandwiches - they took quite a while to arrive but were acceptable when they did. The layout of the cafe however is somewhat drafty with the main entrance opening directly into the restaurant - very cold on our backs whilst we sat at the table - this would not of course be a problem when the weather improves. There are a few tables available outside too.

Went there with a friend and ordered two full English breakfasts. Whilst the drinks came fairly quickly, the breakfasts took about 25 min to arrive. My friends sausage was completely flat (aren't sausages supposed to be round?) and mine was lukewarm and very dense. Can only conclude that they were warmed up in a microwave and my friends sausage "burst". Bacon, tomatoes, egg and toast were okay. Menu said "mushrooms" – I suspect if I had half a mushroom I would be lucky as there were five slices which was somewhat dry. Overall, everything was rather lukewarm. Only two sachets of sugar were offered on the saucer for a pot of tea - maybe better to have these on the table and let the customer decide how much they want. Shamefully, I've had a lot of full English breakfasts over the years and this was certainly takes the prize for the worst. The other reviews are quite positive and I can only assume that they didn't plump for the breakfast! On the plus side, the disabled toilet was spacious and reasonably clean. I don't like leaving bad reviews, but I have to be honest based on the experience I had. I certainly won't be using this café again when journeying along the A43.

They've got a varied selection of freshly made sandwiches, toasties & jacket potatoes and you can mix & match fillings however you like. Afterwards we had a beautiful piece of cake each, my friend had a hot chocolate & I had a very nice capuccino. There were lots of gluten free options & they cater well for vegetarians. The service was excellent & we ended up chatting to the owner & another visitor after they'd closed. I'd defininitely visit again & would recommend it to anyone passing along the A43. There's free parking in the High Street & it's much nicer than stopping at a service station.
