I really like to try and support the local companies but came away extremely disappointed. Food presentation very poor. Slightly warm sausage sandwich with a over powering margarine taste. No real atmosphere. Lots of potential Such a shame

1st the good news. The decaf coffee was ok and the baguette breakfast generously sized. Sadly the tomato and brown sauce were really not the best and meat a bit bland. Then the regular coffee was only fit for the drain.

Poor quality sausages ,sloppy tinned chopped tomatoes! Poor quality spread with toast not butter. No one asked us how our breakfast was, otherwise we would have told them.

Recently visited Marie’s @ no2 and it was an amazing experience! The lunch was brilliant! I had a chicken baguette and it was the best baguette I have ever had! Full to the brim of chicken and the bread was really fresh! A big fuss was made of my young son and he got to chose a chocolate for Christmas which he was very excited about! The members of staff are lovely and tend to your every need would highly recommend a visit if your passing through Winslow!!

First of all, this cafe is a completely different cafe to Harvey’s and is now called Marie’s which is misleading. I visited this place a view days ago and unfortunately it was a very disappointing experience. Ordered breakfast, eggs were undercooked and the food in general was cold and overly greasy. The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful, especially the manager. What a shame, won’t be returning.

Not a large menu but the jacket potatoes, soups, sandwiches and cakes are great. The small range of hot meals also look inviting. The owners are very helpful, a nice place to have a quick bite!

A first class place to stop off for breakfast. The food and service was excellent and it is located on the main street with a car park just over the road.

I popped in today for a break on my bike ride. I got a lovely welcome, the best bacon buttie and a beautiful cold lemon and mint presse. First class.

Had excellent full English breakfast. The sausages and bacon were delicious. Big mug of tea as well. Friendly staff and great ambiance. Good place to start the day.

Great food. I had a BLT baguette and cappuccino. Bacon was really crispy; so was the salad. Really helpful staff who filled my water bottle. Really reasonable prices too!

A friend recommended this place and said they had had a good meal there. I just wanted tea and a cake, and it was not far off closing time, so maybe if I had gone earlier it would have been better. The proprietor was quite friendly. The cakes were all wrapped in clingfilm and did not look at all appetising. There wasn't a huge selection. In the end I settled for a tea cake, which came with three packs of slightly melted butter. The tea was in a pot with milk in a jug which was good. The décor is OK, but the bare floorboards are not to my taste. The worst part was the dreadful plunky plunk music playing. It was presumably intended for the proprietor, not the customers. I did think of asking him to turn it off, but didn't like to, suspecting that he would say 'My customers like it'. Another customer asked about toilets (the cafe does not have any) and was told to use the pub opposite. I did the same and did not get the impression that the pub is happy with this arrangement. There are decent public toilets further along the road.

Have visited a few times now, and every time I receive a warm welcome by friendly and helpful staff. Coffee is the best in Winslow. Good selection of snacks on the menu, and prices are sensible. Will definitely visit again.

Deliciosas tartas caseras, café decente, pero el servicio es muy lento. Eso es probablemente porque toda la comida caliente recién preparado a pedido, lo cual es una buena cosa, pero esto no significa que uno de los miembros del personal siempre está ocupado en la cocina, y puede ser frustrante si todo lo que estamos esperando es un pedazo de pastel. Quizás necesitan otro miembro del personal para ayudar en las horas punta. Dicho esto, el personal no siempre parece muy agradable y se disculparon por la espera.

Possibly the best place in Winslow for light meals and snacks or even to do the crossword or spend some time with a paper magazine or tablet. Slight disappointment since last visit is the not impolite but downbeat almost maudlin mood of the guy behind the counter.

Within a short distance there are a number of establishments offering breakfast but this is the best by far. Quality sausages and bacon and superbly cooked mushrooms make this a standout choice for brekkie.

If you are looking for some good home made food, Harveys is a good stop. You can sit inside or out and watch the people and traffic go by while having a snack ( I recommend the sandwiches here, packed with plenty of fillings) or you can have a 3 course lunch if you choose. The owner makes the soups and the lady makes the cakes.(Blueberry and Lemon is a must to try). The girls are friendly whether you are a regular or a new visitor to Winslow. The window has a display of SockMonkeys which you can buy and flyers letting you know what is happening locally. A nice place to stop off for an hour. :-)

A smile from the boss would be nice, lady was ok.Can't have a mug of coffee, just very small cups or have to have Cappuccino to get bigger !Cake was nice and good size portion.Boss on the mobile having a moan about.....come on do it out back customers don't want to hear your problems! Two regulars also talking loudly, as very small place you can't have a quite snack.Table felt 'sticky'? bit scruffy. too small for comfort.Place needs redecoration.Sorry , am local and do like to support but disappointed.

A small but pleasant cafe situated on a nasty bend at the end of Winslow High Street, they have a nice menu and the food is reasonable in price, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant.

Stopped for lunch whilst on cycle ride with a friend. Both had the home made soup one vegetable and the other Stilton and both kinds were excellent. The service was good and efficient if not really with a smile and had to wait a little while for food to arrive. But we did enjoy the food and drinks and would return certainly if it was again on our cycle route. It is a little small and tight but this is obviously because of the building layout but are tables outside on the pavement if weather permits.

A great little friendly coffee shop serving good coffee (&tea, hot chocolate & cold drinks) and great sandwiches freshly made. Take away or eat in. Popular with cyclists at the weekends…Great bacon sandwich!!Small but always friendly.

I have visited this café several times and have always found it to be very welcoming with excellent food, drink and staff. The breakfasts are second to none using only the best quality products and freshly cooked to order so they are always hot when served. A good choice of hot drinks including specialty teas, flavourful hot chocolate and the best freshly ground coffee for miles. The choice of freshly baked cakes is very appealing and they regularly have gluten free cakes for those that need them such as my wife. We have had lunches there and as with the other food they have always been excellent, especially the salads and soups.The staff have always been very pleasant with a very can do attitude and for those that like something served a particular way they have a nothing is too much trouble attitude. For instance my wife is particular about how her eggs are cooked and Harveys always get them exactly right. On other occasions I've seen people ask for their coffee stronger or weaker and it has been served as requested. In summary this is simply a great local café, great food and staff, thoroughly recommended.

I've been twice now, once after the farmers market and once for a birthday breakfast for my partner. Both times were disappointing. The coffee is weak and watery (no soya milk on offer either which is disappointing in this day and age). But I baulked when I heard the lady taking orders ask the customer what an Americano was...I had a sausage baguette for breakfast and the sausages were cold. My partner had mushrooms, eggs and bacon and the mushrooms were greasy and burnt. Won't return which is a shame because Winslow could really do with a GOOD coffee place.

Family live close by and we have visited here several times. The coffee is surprisingly good and they offer a wide selection of cakes, pastries and snacks. Hubby always opts for a slice of homemade cake which he heartily recommends and the soup is great too! With friendly staff it is always on our list of places to go when we visit.

I work nearby and often frequent Harveys for a takeaway lunch. Today I was also tempted by the freshly baked Victoria sponge. This was undeniably the best cake I have ever tasted! Looking forward to going in for some more soon!

This was a lunch stop for us on our drive to Warwick. Very tasty food, we had paninis and soup, ŵell presented and helpful staff. Good price for lunch. The cafe is small with only about 5 tables but they also do take away, which seemed very popular with the locals, most of whom they seemed to know by name!

Nothing flash but definitely friendly and tasty. Good value too. Interesting mix of customers. Pity the big lorries turning on the corner get so close to the windows.

Work appointments in Winslow a few times a year. Noticed Harvey's this time. Quick lunch stop. Very friendly. Had the most simple tasty panino in years. Good coffee too. Will come again.

We had a very satisfying late lunch on a Monday. Friendly helpful male and female behind the counter. Excellent mushroom and parsnip soups. Also tasty panini. Afterwards first rate raspberry brownies. Good selection of hot and cold drinks. Passable unintrusive music, Wi-Fi but no lavatories. About three or four tables for two and on an expected and slightly unusual plinth, a tablefor five or six with high chairs on the groundfloor side and quaint modern buttock squeezing plywood chairs inside on the step. Bit of condensation because no extractor fan on a chill day but we enjoyed it and the whole deal was a bit under twenty quid all in for the three of us. Would come back. Best caff in the town.

On our occasional visits to Winslow there have been lots of changes to the eating options. This place is now called Harvey's and has a lot more go and feel about it. Really enjoyed a lingering early afternoon snack with friends before a night out.

This place was recently taken over by Phil who used to run a similar operation locally I believe. Nice friendly service, home made cakes and stonking good breakfasts - and Phil the owner is a happy bunny and good for a laugh - worth a visit.

First visit. I love pies and had wanted to visit this pub for ages. I would love to have given more stars but was so disappointed that even though it was early evening my choice of pies were out of stock. Only about 6 pies available from a wonderful menu. For starter we had the vegetable soup and prawn cocktail - both very good. My husband had the fillet steak for his main course which he thoroughly enjoyed and I had my fourth pie choice option Chicken and Mushroom Pie. Unfortunately I felt the pie was overbaked as the top pastry was extremely hard and I could not cut through it or eat it. The chicken and sauce was delicious but could not see much evidence of mushroom. The vegetables and chips were cooked to perfection. Service was fantastic. The place itself looked as though it needed updating but definitely had character. The pub car park was a nightmare getting in and out. It did not help that someone had parked in the Exit so we had to leave by the Entrance! Would give it another try in the future.

This time I went to Rumsey's with just my wife although I have been several times with other members of my family since I make a point of going every time we visit my son in Tring because I love the place so much. I haven't tasted such delicious drinking chocolate anywhere. It is always so rich and velvety. I adore the stuff and, I think, could very easily get addicted to it! In addition to the actual drink they give you a very delicious little biscuit to accompany it. Every time we go, we buy some to make up at home and I can tell you it doesn't last for long - well not long enough anyway. The café itself is not very big but there are tables outside if the weather is good. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and they also sell very tempting cakes and chocolates and some savouries. Parking in Wendover is very easy and the town centre is worth a visit in its own right. I urge you to go.

This was an excellent and great value plate of food, which arrived promptly. The components of the cooked breakfast were all of good quality. The bacon included a nice amount of fat, important as fat means flavour and helps to fill us up. The black pudding was great quality with a wonderful depth of flavour. The eggs were very well cooked, having no ‘snottiness’. Our only criticism would be the use of semi-skimmed milk. Whole milk just tastes better and produces a creamier coffee. Less is needed too. Large numbers of people and eateries are switching back to whole milk, as recent studies show full-fat dairy products are protective against obesity, diabetes and heart disease.

I had the lobster and it was lovely. All our meals came in good time and were piping hot. The staff were attentive and friendly. If you need a taxi I recommend Sarah's Taxi's. Excellent rates and service.
