Family run Cafe, worth frequenting Its a small cafe, tucked on the non-crowded side of Hornchurch high street. Whilst their menu maybe limited, the quality of food served is simply impeccable. One of the local family run businesses where you genuinely feel welcomed and not rushed in any form. The cafe has an old world charm to it, which adds to the cosy ambience within. Food served is fresh and the limited options actually feel right as you know what you want before even stepping in. Always see happy older folks here, which adds to the calm and cosy vibe of this place. Child friendly activities like coloring and card/board games ensures little ones are kept occupied, a win win for all :) Must visit, and an integral part of the local community - hoping this establishment continues to stay here in the ever changing Hornchurch Landscape.

The quality of the food was average, the menu is very basic, and there is not a lot to choose from considering they are open for lunch. This cafe caters more for breakfasts and eggs royal type of breakfast / bruch. On the day I visited, there were only two staff members serving to bring food to the tables, clean the tables, take food orders, and payments.

This little cafe is amazing, my dad Tony lost his wife 18 months ago, and started coming to this cafe and I couldn't be happier for him, he has made some lovely new friends, Mark the owner and his family have made him so welcome, I can't express enough how grateful I am that he found this place , his little social hub which makes him so happy. I should also mention that the food is phenomenal, well done to you all for making your cafe a homely happy welcoming place for the community, I for one truly appreciate the happiness you have brought to my dads life, thank you xx

I had this cafe recommended to me and after having to fast for a blood test was starving so paid it a visit and really glad I did. The staff were really welcoming and attentative and the food was something else. Cooked perfectly great quality and took me back to my mum's fry ups bless her. There were also articles dotted around inside that were very interesting and again took me back to good old days and gone by with cherished memories. I know it's my first visit here but deffo will not be the last - a true gem in Hornchurch not to be passed by.

We have been there today for the first time, it had a nice atmosphere about it, very friendly welcome, food was great, I loved the sprinkles of paprika and fresh herbs on my eggs benedict, I could have done with a bit more hollandaise but this is personal liking - it was still tasty. Perfectly poached egg was nice runny, we defo go there again.

Lunch was lovely really enjoyed it. There was really relaxing retro style music playing, it was so chill, felt like we could have just sat there chatting for ages. Staff were very nice too.

Popped into French's for lunch. It was busy, but I was served quickly. Ham egg and chips cooked just how I liked it and tasty. A good sized portion as well. There was a good choice on the menu, prices had gone up a little, but that was no surprise due to the excessive charges for energy being forced upon small business's. Still a traditional cafe serving traditional freshly cooked good food. Will return and support them.

this is a very popular local cafe in Hornchurch, so it is often busy. run by Mark French and his family the food is freshly made and the portion size is good. You will wait whilst food is prepared for you but that is ok- you can read a newspaper and have a cuppa while you wait. Great for breakfast or lunch or getting something on the move. It is easy to see why Mark has a number of regulars since the food and service is good and it is a friendly place. But it can run out of choices on a busy day, so make sure you choose your time to eat.

Este es un café muy popular local en Hornchurch, así que es a menudo ocupados. Dirigido por la marca francesa y su familia la comida está recién hecha y el tamaño de la porción es buena. Tendrás que esperar mientras la comida está preparada para usted, pero eso está bien, usted puede leer un periódico y tener una taza mientras espera.Excelente para el desayuno o el almuerzo o conseguir algo en movimiento. Es fácil ver por qué marca tiene un gran número de clientes habituales, ya que la comida y el servicio es bueno y es un lugar agradable. Pero puede salir de opciones en un día ajetreado, así que asegúrate de elegir su tiempo para comer.

Parado para el desayuno mientras esperando una cita una mañana de esta semana. Hornchurch tiene una gran reputación por decente, pero tristemente comer no puedo añadir a la lista. El café estaba limpia y ordenada, con una gran variedad de comida y el personal muy agradable. El café estaba bueno pero el "Inglés" fue decepción por la calidad de los platos servidos. En particular, las salchichas. Estas son insulsos, baratas procesados sin sabor y textura como de cartón empapados. £5. 45 sólo por la fe, estoy seguro de que hay espacio para incluir elementos de mejor calidad. Otro punto malo, fue la de salsas, tanto Red & Brown eran como agua coloreada. Una lástima, en mi opinión. Ahora son cafés propiamente raro en Hornchurch entre las masas de turcos, italianos, indios, establecimientos de pizza y el elegantes cafeterías que llenan la High Street. Este café tiene el potencial de ser tan buena! ! Parece que luego volver a Wetherspoons

Not somewhere I would visit again. We went in for a snack and a hot drink as we were early for a funeral. The coffee and the hot chocolate was okay. Two of us had a bacon sandwich, the bacon was so overcooked it was inedible. The tuna sandwich wasnt much better, it looked and tasted very bland. It's a shame as this cafe is situated in a perfect location, but it was just the food that let it down for us.
