Advertises that hot food is available until 3pm, yet they stop at 2pm, sometimes earlier, very disappointing especially when you have made the trip there. UPDATE YOUR SIGNS

This is a lovely little cosy cafe with friendly staff even if they are understaffed a bit but was no problem for me, I had a small vegetarian breakfast which was nice but I don't think the size portion size reflected the price. I knew I was getting a small breakfast but I thought id have at least a few more beans and mushrooms than 3 forkfuls. It was warm enough to eat but not quite hot enough aside from the sausage. The hash brown was lovely and crisp though. It's a shame it's not dog friendly as I'm sure that would drive more customers in, I saw a lot of people with dogs stopping outside to read the sign and walking away disappointed but I understand why.

I come here very little because of how expensive it is. I love the coffee and usually have a breakfast but the other day we popped in and had a breakfast and it’s just not worth the price anymore, maybe a new chef since we have been? The mushrooms were cold, the egg was pure slime, that annoyed me the most! I get a better breakfast for half the price at Tesco. You get 2 stars for the coffee. I also came here and got a bacon sandwich, I can make a better one at home. I’ll stick to just getting coffee from here in future.

Huge disappointment as this cafe was seriously under staffed. We ordered two drinks and two jacket potatoes. The drinks arrived after half an hour. After one hour our "light lunch" has not arrived so we asked for and received a refund (pending at time of writing). If you're suprised to be busy at one o'clock lunchtime then employ more staff or at least have the courtesy to tell customers on arrival and who pay up front when ordering that there will be a delay in serving you. We visit Hunstanton regularly and will not be returning here.

Partner and I decided to try this place for lunch, lived in the area my whole life and looked forward to trying a new small business. The cafe was nicely decorated and the menu looked good. A good amount of people were eating, always a good sign. Food served 10-3. We approached the counter to be told straight away ‘we’ve stopped serving hot food.’ At 2.15. Oh. Disappointing to say the least, but we were here and decided we’d have something small. Once we’d decided, the staff walked past us with plates of hot food. We asked again, a different staff member, definitely no hot food? Yes, we need to clean the kitchen. At 2.15. Such a shame to see all the other customers being served and eating hot food. Parter and I agreed that they likely wanted to go home early, if you serve food until a certain time, serve it until then. We got some tea, cake and sausage rolls and returned to our seats. Tea and cake were brought over, staff went back without a word. After 10 minutes of waiting, I went to the counter to ask for our sausage rolls. ‘They’re in the oven.’ Fine, would have been nice if that had been communicated. Also, the oven in the kitchen that needs to be cleaned? At 2.15? Once the sausage rolls finally made their way out, they tasted good, which was nice. When we left, partner said thank you and received no reply. I got the most wonderful death stare as I left, which was the disappointing cherry on top. Ladies, you aren't school playground bullies anymore, you're in customer service. Stick to the serving times, communicate and don't make customers feel uncomfortable. I hope you all enjoyed that extra hour at home, and I hope the young lady that glowered at me on the way out isn't too distraught. Won’t be returning.

A spacious cafe much frequented and popular with a older clientel. The decor could really do with an update as at the moment it looks a tad drear and industrial. During my visit the waitress was attentive and friendly but I'm afraid she was let down badly by the kitchen. To say that the service was slow would be a huge understatement. I could understand it if the cafe was busy but it wasn't, it's just so so slow, 25 minutes to produce a fried breakfast and a baked potato isn't acceptable. To add insult to injury the hot food was served on a cold plate. It could be a cracking little cafe but would benefit from a shake up throughout.

Coffee is good and the Tea is OK but it lacks atmosphere and quality of service the girls always talking and not clearing tables when customers have left, shame the American Diner type theme has not been developed enough?

Lovely spacious restaurant. Friendly staff and a good menu selection. No children’s options but they were able to accommodate. A little on the pricy side for a lunch of 1 sandwich with coleslaw and side salad, one child’s jam sandwich with salad, scrambled egg on toast, 1 tea, 1 cold drink and 2 deserts £35… it was ample quantity wise but I felt £8 for a sandwich and side salad was steep. Having said that, we will visit again (once we’ve saved up!)
