Holeshot Cafe in Suffolk Coastal - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Steve's a legend ! And his full English breakfasts are excellent

Hands down the best full English in the east! Friendly No frills dining, Steve's a legend to

Quick easy fresh cooked food? Nothing seems to be too much trouble.

Stopped for breakfast on our way to visit friends and family. We haven't been in a long while, but we were not disappointed. Steve's breakfast was a delicious as we remember. Thanks.

Builder's cafe, best food possible.

Definitely a hidden gem! You pull up and think you're in the wrong place, but open the door to the bus and sit yourself down to one of the best breakfasts on the road!

Have been here a few times now when I’m up this way for work. Always have the triple breakfast baguettes and they are amazing ! Lovely owner Steve and great coffee. Deffo recommend !

Best place around. Fresh food, great service and great prices. Don't be put off by the bus. Not your average greasy burger van. Great salads and healthy food in the summer. Being a top boxing trainer the owner understands and supplys healthy weight loss programs/food packages as well as good humble traditional food. One of suffolks best kept secrets. Great produce/talent/Grub hiding away in a old coach/bus.

Between lockdowns (Now on 4 week lockdown) but takeaways are available. Superb service. Great food! Always a great natter..... Looking forward to being able to sit in again!

Me and my partner stopped here this morning for a cheese burger and a cuppa,it was one if the best burgers we have eaten,excellent quality meat, homemade rolls,really friendly owner Steve,very welcoming,got great tips of places to visit,do not just drive buy this place you have to stop and try it cos you will definitely go back time and time again,we certainly will when in the area,don't be put off by the exterior or interior.

Been saying to myself for years, I'm going to call there one day, so today I did! A brilliant bacon roll set me up for the day just a shame we can't sit inside at the moment!!!

Amazing breakfast. Steve is a legend!

If you don't know it is here you will miss it. Can be just seen on A12 southbound at Martlesham. Looks like an old coach. Food great and good amount, cooked to order. Either a takeaway or sit in, If you are a regular how does this man remember what you normally order? I always go off menu and always enjoy the food and the banter with Steve the BOSS!

Fantastic huge breakfast. Really nice people.

Steve makes a quality breakfast, free refills on the hot drinks, nice little roadside diner

Superb freshly cooked delicious Full English breakfast with Revetts Sausages. Best Cafe by far. Love the place, and so do my grandsons.

Good food and plenty of it at modest prices. Proprietor couldn't be more helpful.

Etwas abseits-versteckt (P-platz direkt davor), dennoch im kultigen Bus mit 1Mann/Koch zwar nur Barzahlung aber klasse Burger/englisches Mahl für kleines Geld mit Klimaanlage ein wohlschmeckendes Erlebnis...gern wieder!!!

Top tasty food and friendly place. I never drive past as always worth stopping. I suggest whoever reads does the same.

Fantastic breakfast - really welcoming and funny host

Really great experience! Super welcoming and friendly. Just mind your head and make sure you're hungry when you go in!

It's great. Great breakfast and you're on a bus!! Staff are genuinely friendly on "The griddle of dreams". Lots of tradesmen and dads with kids in the mix. A treat for both. Prices are very fair. Some say the best breakfast in East Anglia!

This place certainly doesn't look like much from the outside or the inside but it isn't set up for fine dining. It is a cafe, a greasy spoon but with great tasting food and an owner with the heart of gold. It is a unique cafe with the fact that it operates out of the carcass of an old bus, it adds character. A good cafe is hard to find I feel. I work in the construction industry and we thrive on the use of these little cafes and it is hard to find a decent one amongst a saturated market, but this one is decent. I come here when I have the time and driving past. The breakfast is great and the owner is great for a bit of chat and banter. He is a good chef in his field of expertise. I am honest in the fact that if you want to impress a client then maybe don't bring them here as the looks aren't spectacular but any other time, dive right in. You won't be disappointed with the culinary results.

Best breakfast around by far! Not just breakfast though, Steve only uses the best ingredients in his food so the flavour and quality really shine through. Can't recommend it enough, try it out for yourself.

The title says it all. Excellent breakfast, very quick, fantastic sausages (very important!), great service 😊

Best cooked breakfast in Suffolk

Lovely breakfast and good service

Lovely grub as all ways cheers Steve

Everyone is welcomed fast friendly service and excellent food.

One of 3 or 4 places in area We go to. Great being known, Great food, great conversation (while cooking), Excellent amount and fantastic quality. No matter if you have never been before or a regular. You always get a great welcome. Never looks much from the outside, but a warm clean friendly welcome invites you to return.... Well done Steve.

Very friendly service and a very nice proper burger rather than something out of a box

Best breakfast in the area and great customer service too. Thanks Steve!

The best meals you will ever eat all local and all fresh home made ....fantastic

A proper old style roadside cafe loacated in an old coach. Food is excellent dont be put off by the exterior

Ipswich's best value breakfast. Steve serves up the full English with all the trimmings (including local Revetts sausages) in his converted bus near Martlesham. Very friendly and welcoming.

'half' breakfast costs £6, bacon/sausage/beans/egg/mushrooms/hash brown/half tomato/2 toast/tea or coffee, and free refills on tea/coffee and toast. fresh cooked, nice, and very friendly bloke.

Often use this place for a quick meal. Even when busy the speed and quality of the food is amazing. Steve has time to talk as he cooks. Great value for money.

Some honest breakfast in an old bus. Good prices but it's not the Ritz!

Staff are amazing and provide a really great breakfast! Plus my daughter loves breakfast in the bus!!

Great service, not as clean as you'd hope. Do you know it's a bus!?

Top food again at the holeshot cafe Highly recommended!

Ok.. We haven't tried everywhere admittedly but this must be unbeatable surely? Fantastic food really good quality and cooked by Steve who manages to cook passionately whilst talking and engaging customers. The fact he loves what he does makes it a joy to visit with nothing too much trouble. Omelette is really good. Baguettes are HUGE but he will wrap leftovers! Brilliant.

Great food! Great atmosphere! Can't help enough, well done folks. Top 🍌👍

Arrived after a busy few hours we were very hungry and because I haven't been in for a month or so the greeting I got from Steve the boss was fantastic almost as if I've never been away I had two eggs two toast and beans the missus had half full breakfast very nice always refill your cup fantastic service and the amount you get especially beans well worth the money.

Well done guys keep it up lovely cuppa fantastic breakfast thank you

A converted old coach. ... Basic seating... Great value for money... Fantastic cook (Steve) You are well looked after....

Este fue recomendado por un colega que no podía parar exaltar "la mejor hamburguesa", así que mientras en la zona, decidí averiguar por mí mismo. No me decepcionó y mientras charlaban con el propietario, Steve, es bastante evidente que el hombre tiene pasión por lo que él crea. Puede que pienses que es sólo otra carretera burger van, pero no se dejen engañar.

Top quality all the time, best Road side cafe in Suffolk

Pure class. Good food, great service, a real honour to be served by the legendary brigadier Potter.

Been to this place 4 times now, One of the best and cleanest 'greasy spoon' cafes around. Food fresh cooked. and plenty for the money. Well done to Steve the proprietor.

La intención de visitar este "café bus" durante un largo tiempo notando todos los camioneros y trabajadores locales que frecuentan el lugar y finalmente fui la semana pasada para un desayuno. Guau. . . .

Si te quieres escapar de la tripulación tostadas de masa fermentada y conseguir una alimentación decente sitio inmejorable. El chef es prácticamente la más amable persona que he conocido y la comida es estupenda relación calidad-precio. No hay necesidad de más creo que éste, media pensión o desayuno inglés completo. Hecho!

De paso y he pensado parar. No dejes que el exterior Condiciones del autobús te desanime, productos locales y un chef acogedor.

We were camping in the area so arrived with healthy appetites and were certainly not disappointed. A really warm welcome from owner Steve who's first words were 'lets sort out a drink first'. Always a good start. Full English and half English ordered and were duly delivered piping hot and perfect for two hungry campers! Plenty of happy banter between Steve and his assistant (although I got the impression she was the 'real' boss!) and with the punters on board. The setting, in an old coach, just added to the whole experience. Another review mentioned how Steve chatted with a small child - we had exactly the same experience, really kind and attentive to a little girl and not your average truck-stop café owner!

Have used this facility a number of times over the years and never been disappointed yet. Went yesterday on my own for a bacon sandwich and a cuppa. Great. If you like people, friendly banter, old-fashioned environments and stationary buses this is for you. If you prefer or are used to the 'Ritz' and don't like people, stay away.

In the café this morning for the superb half English. A dad came in with his young daughter aged around 5 (I guess). During a conversation she had with Steve the café owner, he told her about Captain Beetroot, the pirate with two of everything (swords, pistols, eye patches(?), parrots and hats) and how due to his misdeeds he had been forced to inhabit the body of a dog. A picture of a Basset on the wall was described as Captain Beetroot. The chat continued with the stuffed hippo from the museum coming to life, drinking ketchup etc. A wonderful few minutes. The little girl was hanging on every word, as was I (58 years old). Not something you get with every breakfast elsewhere. Excellent Steve, most enjoyable. Kevin B

Visited for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Superb food with locally sourced ingredients and great value - £7 for a very filling meal. Friendly owner and great service. I will be back!

Was curious about this old disused coach which I had passed so many times, so took my three kids along one half term and we all loved it. Not only was the cafe cosy being converted from coach seating to tables but the couple who were running it were so friendly and hospitable and were great with the kids too. And the food was excellent. The cooked breakfasts were the best I had tasted in years and the sausages were high quality and everything was cooked perfectly. I know they do specials like chilli, homemade burgers etc which would be worth trying too.We all loved it and the kids made me promise to take them back which I'll do this half term as it's only open during certain times and days so school holidays are the best for us.For me it was an unexpected surprise and much better than I was expecting.

If you want a really good British breakfast made with top quality local produce then the Holeshot Cafe is the place to go.Enough said!

Dont be put off by the fact its an old bus - the chef turns out a brilliant brecky with great local sausages. If you want a yarn and a laugh then Steve the chef is always happy and has some great stories. The homemade burgers are to die for but get in early as he too frequently sells out.

Went for breakfast and was disappointed. Wife enjoyed the chips on the half English but was expecting better. Mushrooms tasted a week old and tomato hard as a rock. Rude blokes blocking the entrance with their conversation and the whole rest if the bus empty. Not worth the detour.

Always get service with a smile, good quality food at great value for money. If you haven't been get yourself down there its fab!!!

A great friendly cafe. Fantastic Food from locally sourced produce. I can highly recommended the BLT's and Chicken BLT'sExcellent atmosphere and great service from Kerry she's a star :) And Steve is a fantastic chef
