Red Onion Cafe in Hillingdon

Enjoyed a delicious avoid and poached egg brunch on sourdough toast. Big portion, great value for money. And got to sit in the rare November sunshine -idyllic!

This was the most disappointing lunch I’ve EVER had in North West London. We waited over an hour for food and the food was extremely basic. For the sandwiches, there were 3-4 choices of bread. We ordered a sandwich with ciabatta as the bread choice. An hour later, the sandwich comes and we’re told that they didn’t have ciabatta, so they’ve just given another type of bread. No communication until this point. Would not recommend the nachos either - cheap cheese sauce. The halloumi burger was lukewarm and very basic. No idea why the food took so long considering how average each dish was. Waiting staff were friendly so credit to them to have to deal with so many angry customers.

Hygiene is not a priority here...

My daughter is gluten intolerant. On Saturday, we went to the Red Onion and she ordered a sandwich and told the waitress she wanted gluten free bread. When her sandwich arrived, she once again checked with the waitress to make sure that it was gluten free, something she always does, and she was assured it was. As soon as we left the cafe, my daughter started to have stomach camps. She was sick as soon as we returned home. Thankfully, my daughter is not gluten intolerant, because this would have led to serve complications. The staff at the cafe need to trained properly regarding food intolerances and the importance of getting is right. It would not have taken much to check that the food did not contain any gluten. Their blase attitude could result in hospitalisation in the future. To the proprietor the cafe, please get your act together. Needless to say, we won't be returning.

Super place with great sheltered outdoor space at rear. Little treasure.

Lovely cozy place for a brunch with friends:) v attentive staff and yum food would highly recommend :)

I come here very often - one of my favourite local cafes! So cosy and lovely inside, great ambiance. Drinks are always great (I'd recommend a mocha with hazelnut syrup) and food wise, I'd recommend the dirty fries and sweet corn fritters.

I recently visited this cafe, and it instantly became my go-to breakfast spot! The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and inviting seating make you feel right at home. The menu has something for everyone, from classic fluffy waffles to flavourful, unique dishes. The avocado toast is a standout—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Plus, the coffee is rich and smooth, just what you need to start your day. Can’t wait to go back!

Amazing food and the loveliest staff, highly reccommed!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Absolutely delighted with my experience at Red Onion Cafe in Ruislip! The food here is simply outstanding. I tried their signature avocado toast with poached eggs, and it was perfectly seasoned and deliciously fresh. The presentation was beautiful, and you could tell a lot of care went into making each dish. The coffee is also a highlight—rich, smooth, and aromatic. I had a cappuccino, and it was one of the best I've had in a long time. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every customer feels welcomed and well taken care of. The cafe's cozy and inviting atmosphere adds to the charm, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend this gem of a cafe for anyone looking for quality food, drinks, and service. A must-visit in Ruislip!

Had lunch in Red Onion today but was very very disappointed. £34.00 for two salads, a black coffee & an iced coffee. Chicken Caesar Salad - 3 pieces of chicken, the salad was bulked up with cress & cucumber (in a Caesar Salad?!) but the worst thing was the lettuce was not fresh. It had been cut for many hours and was all discoloured and limp. Despite leaving most of the salad on the plate, no one bothered to ask if everything was ok. My daughter had the Mexican Salad and the same issues we’re experienced - bulked up with cress and limp lettuce. £34.00!!!! How difficult is it to shred a few leaves of lettuce to order. Disgraceful for the price 😢

Sadly the quality has been dramatically reduced, was beautiful food, all homemade but not anymore sadly.

The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was lovely, this is a really nice cafe in a great spot on the high street. The staff were friendly and efficient, next time I’m in Ruislip I’ll visit again

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Red Onion Cafe in Ruislip, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed meal.

Not even zero stars would sum up this restaurant. I used to work here and just sued them, and won! They exploit young girls, unsafe working conditions that led to serious injuries, and they don't even wash up properly.

I recently ate at the Red Onion Cafe, and it was awesome. The staff was super friendly and made me feel welcome right away. The place has a cozy vibe with cool decor, perfect for chilling out. The food was really tasty and looked great too. Our server was on point and knew the menu well. I'd totally recommend the Red Onion Cafe if you're looking for a great meal.

Beautiful place for a brunch. Liked the food and customer service was amazing. My pick is Hinglish breakfast, and Mumbai chilli Cheese sandwich. A must place to visit.

I recently visited this classic cafe and I must say staff, food, vibe everything was top notch. If you are looking for a hangout spot with great selection of food, THIS SHOULD BE YOUR STOP.

A delightful cafe offering delicious breakfast and lunch in a charming, classic setting. The small garden adds a serene touch, making it perfect for a relaxing meal. Exceptional food, friendly staff, and a cozy atmosphere make it a must-visit spot for a pleasant dining experience. Highly recommended!

Loved the food perfect for A summer day Aymen was very hospitable I would recommend this place for anyone to try.😋

It's probably the best brunch spot in Ruislip. Quality of ingredients, cooking and presentation is excellent. Food tastes amazing. Outside space in the rear is pleasant on sunny, warm summer days.

Unresponsive servers who looked like they didn't want to be there. Had to ask to order our food as we sat for a while and no one came over. Shockingly expensive for the portion. £3 to add chilli jam, £4 to add garlic mushrooms?! Ordered sourdough with Avocado and pomegranate seeds and added a poached egg. The avo was so hard I couldn't cut through it, obviously the chef couldn't either as half the sourdough had mashed avocado and the other half hald a rock solid piece on it. And there were only 5 pomegranate seeds. My partner had halloumi and chilli jam - hardly any chilli jam and the sourdough was soggy. Could barely see any of the food on the plate as here was so many micro greens and cress on top. The owner needs to step their game up - this was a terrible experience. Shouldn't have bothered coming off motorway to find a nice cafe for brunch, should have just stopped at the service station instead.

Came on a very rainy day for some food after raving about the place to a friend. It has been a fair while since I last came so was really looking forward to my visit. I ordered the halloumi chilli jam sourdough and the cheese siracha topped fries. My friend ordered the nachos and a smoked salmon sandwich. The only good thing about the food/drink was in fact the drinks. Gorgeous dirty chai latte, cappuccino and smoothie. Came out quickly too. The young guy taking our order didn’t seem to know what he was doing, fries came out as plain fries. Sent them back, then asked someone for an update, same plain fries came back out so sent back, after waiting till almost the end of my meal to ask again, same plain fries came back out so I sent them back and had them taken off the bill. Sourdough toast was completely soggy. Chilli jam isn’t the same at all. Hardly any avocado for the price you pay for a side. Nachos were cheap broken bits out of a bag. Other places make their own which are much nicer. Honestly this place has changed so much and for the worse- long gone are the days of efficient friendly service, great food made with care and love. Really won’t be heading back here at all, and that’s a shame because I always loved the place.

What has been the no. 1 place in Ruislip seems to be under new management, although I don't see that on their website, Facebook page or in the cafe. But as soon as you look at the menu and staff you'll soon see the familiar faces and options are all gone. I loved the food their so will have to find somewhere new. Off to Eastcote!

Always a lovely place to have brunch with delicious food and fantastic customer service. Recommend to everyone!

Really lovely atmosphere. One of the best breakfasts around and definitely worth going

We loved this place. Very good food and drinks, and the staff is so friendly! We really enjoyed this venue❤️

I love this place! Great food and vibes! And you can take your dog with you 😍🐶🐾

Loud atmosphere. Mid tier food for outrageous prices. Waiters basically unresponsive. A simple eggs and avocado sandwich takes 25 minutes. Not worth at all.

One of the best place for brunch! Amazing sandwiches and loads of smoothies to choose from. The people here are super friendly and shoutout to the brilliant customer service. Do pop in and try out some of their best food!

Lovely place with very friendly customer service, the food was fantastic and worth the price. Thank you I look forward to returning again soon.

Beautiful presentation of food. Nice bitesize menu so easier to pick food of choice not overkill on choices. My wife's from NewZealand and she hates the greasy spoon cafes in the UK. This cafe was the first she felt it bought the best of UK cafes out with amazing food choice and presentation that she's so used too in NewZealand. I cannot fault thinking either. Healthy and delicious.

Been coming here for years. Always happy to return. Great food, coffee and service.

Had an amazing Mexican salad here today, Amin the lovely owner customised it to perfection..definately recommend amazing food

I love this little cafe on Ruislip High Street. From the outside might look average, but when you come inside, you can feel this outschool vibes. Very nice and polite team members, great food. And most importantly, little garden at the back of cafe. Amazing for coffee and talking when the weather is nice outside. Would recommend to everyone yo try this place at least once!

Cozy cafe right in the heart of Ruislip high street, The staff is really amazing and professional. Scones are a must try!

Poor food quality. Scramble eggs and bacon overcooked. I’ll not visit it again.

An absolutely wonderful lunch served in a gorgeous garden. Great local beer from St David’s, a good cappuccino made with oat milk. The lunch, a delicious’ Earth Bowl’ salad made with a wonderful selection of ingredients, salad leaves, beetroot, broccoli, roasted carrots etc. Focaccia generously filled with vegetarian ingredients was superb. A scrumptious chocolate cake garnished with strawberries and cream rounded off the meal. Thank you, it was memorable. Highly recommended

portions have shrunk and the waffles are reheated and store bought

Very nice breakfast and lunch place to take the family. Excellent service.

This is THE BEST breakfast in Greater London, we were frequent visitors since our first visit in Aug 2018 and made sure to order during the pandemic to support this local gem. We have sadly moved away to the Countryside an hour away but as a family we always discuss making the Red Onion pilgrimage. I have not found a better breakfast in the Chilterns so far and can't wait to come back. Please don't change! I'm a meat eater who frequently orders the veggie and vegan options because they are too good to be missed

Best breakfast I've had in years. Lovey staff and atmosphere.

Staff are very friendly and helpful, best soup I’ve ever had and loved the milkshake!

Excellent service, coffee and brunch as always. Bacon crispy as requested and delicious hollandaise sauce on the poached eggs. Beautifully presented.

Loved it! Fresh cooked food ( lovely varied menu too ) All the staff were fantastic on the ball & EXCELLENT customer service. It’s decorated so well. Edgy & cute. Perfect sunday brunch

So this place looks really quaint. I love the decor; it also has a covered outside place out the back. Staff were really friendly. I had the Hinglish Breakfast, it sounded amazing on paper, although it was pretty average in reality. It wasn't seasoned at all and the sourdough toast wasn't even buttered. The coffee was Luke warm. My wife has the vegan breakfast, was was little better than mine. All in all, if you want to be in a place that is rather chic not too worried about the food, knock yourself out.

Best breakfast I had in a while and highly recommended it.

Walked here for breakfast from the nearby Premier Inn which has no dining facilities. Breakfast was OK, but the place was cold and the food soon became cold as a result. Don't like eating with my coat on. Nothing was what you would class as "locally sourced" Nice staff, not bad value, but not as good as I expected from previous reviews.

What a place - breakfast was fantastic and the service amazing. A lady working there on 30.10.23 lunch time was incredibly polite and welcoming !!!!

Lovely dog friendly cafe. Lovely breakfasts, all the food really great quality and friendly staff!

Love the atmosphere,. The food is delicious

Visited Red Onion for brunch. Welcoming greeting from everyone Staff and customers included. Delicious food especially the Hinglish breakfast. Dietary request also met. Bonus was being able to take our dog as well. Can’t wait to eat here again… very soon! Thank you all!

Gem of a place. Lovely staff and great coffee

One of the best cafe's in the local area. Warm and cosy to sit in, great service and the food is always on point (as well as the coffee). Highly recommended

A slight wait but the food is well worth it. Best Place to eat in the area.

Dec '23: dropped in for a coffee & a chat with an acquaintance. Attentive service and lunch business looked to be busy. March '22. A pleasure to return for a double espresso before setting off for a bike ride. July '21; back to a full service, staff permitting. February '21; they're back, at least at weekends, with a selection of choice fresh vegetables in addition to their normal selection of cakes to accompany their quality coffee. Why not support a local independent coffee shop rather than the bland generic chains? Wide range of tasty dishes on the menu including classic breakfasts. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free cakes available for the sweet-toothed. Prmpt, friendly service, and once Spring returns there is a garden zone through the back, past the wc.

Always fantastic food and good service

Love the atmosphere and friendly staff. Yummy food and fast service. We will be back for sure. Thank you 😊👍

Extremely friendly and kind girls today . when they found it was my friends birthday they produced a lit candle for his cake . made his day.

Enjoyed you very nice and healthy late lunch with friends yesterday, Veggie burger with gluten free bun, loved the french fries - thank you !

This is a rare cafe, within an area of the country classified as ‘london’ but has the atmosphere and quality of food you can expect somewhere in the countryside. The inside was fully booked, indicating its popularity and given it was a cold day, we almost declined sitting outside. However, it has a roof and they provide blankets like you have when you want to sit outside in cold european cities. The menu is concise, predominantly offering burgers and sandwiches, but the quality of the food, including the childrens menu options was fresh and tasty. The burger meat tasted like it was made by the restaurant and the children had a sandwich made of fresh sourdough. Children were pleased to be visited by a red robin, so should change the name of the cafe could suitably be renamed from red onion. We will return!

A very bizarre first experience at Red Onion Café this afternoon. We went there after seeing positive reviews on Google and were looking forward to discovering a café local to us. We ordered two juices, one chicken burger, one bountiful salad and two sides of fries. According to the menu, the bountiful salad was meant to consist of tomatoes, dressed leaves, grains, hummus, roasted veg and pomegranate. I ordered this salad with a side of falafel. I was blown away that not only did the salad came out with the wrong side of halloumi, the salad was served essentially consisting of leaves, less than one spoonful of couscous and a very restrained spread of hummus. All this for £9. There were no roasted vegetables or pomegranate in sight. I asked the waitress why this dish did not come out as described in the menu. She stated that the chef was new and that they would make a fresh salad. She reassured me at this stage that we would not be charged for the salad and that it would be taken off the bill. I accepted the offer of a new salad on this basis. After all this, we were flabbergasted that when we went to the counter to pay the bill, we were being asked to pay for the salad, when the waitress had specifically stated that we would not be charged for it. If the waitress had been referring to the salad that we had returned, it would have been a given that we would not have been paying for salad leaves and a spoon of couscous and houmous, plus the cost of the wrong side order. I therefore had taken her assurances to be in reference to removing the second salad from the bill entirely. The entire interaction at the counter was very strange – we were confronted by a group of young waitresses and their comments made us feel that we were trying to get away with not paying for the salad, when the only reason we thought we weren’t paying for the salad is because we were assured that we wouldn’t have to. The waitress who had made the assurance was there, and said “I was talking about the first salad”. I mentioned that it was a given that we would not have been paying for the first salad. The café seems to be run by a group of young and inexperienced waitresses who have very little experience of how to speak to customers and how to handle issues. Their approach at the counter can only be described as being spoken to by a gaggle of geese, each trying to have their say. To end this dialogue and not to create further embarrassment, my partner said he would just pay for the two salads, including the returned one, to bring an end to the discussion. Only at this stage did the waitress who had said she’d remove the salad from the bill say “okay we won’t charge you for it” and looked very begrudged, as though she wasn’t getting her way in a petty argument with her friends. We walked out of the café, scratching our heads and wondering if what we had experienced was real, as we have never come across such bizarre customer service anywhere we have eaten, whether for lunch, breakfast or dinner. Furthermore, I noted from observing their interactions with other customers (before there was even an issue with our order) that there were repetitive mistakes being made with customer orders. There was also no organisation or communication amongst the staff members. Sadly, we won’t be returning after this experience, as much as we would have liked to support a local independent.

A friendly service. Lovely coffee and cakes. Feels like a personal service not just being served a coffee. Friendly staff that take the time of day with you means a lot to regular customers. Nice to support an independent place (rather than a chain) The Red Onion has got bags of charm and character and it’s the fabulous staff that really make it a huge success.

Lovely place 😊 Our favourite cafe in Ruislip! It's the place I suggest to all my friends who come to visit or for a cheeky mid-week lunch with my OH. The menu is great, lots of variety and it's updated frequently. The food is tasty and healthy!

I went there today with my son as it was my birthday treat from him. We both had a vegan one breakfast and both had oat latte coffee. The breakfast consisted of sauté potatoes, sourdough bread, tomatoes, sweetcorn, fritters, baked beans, spinach, and smashed avocados. I must add that this is only the second time I have been here, but both times it blows me away. Whether you are a meat eater, vegetarian, or vegan this Caffe far exceeds anywhere else I have been and is my favourite place to visit. The staff are very friendly and also plenty of staff, the food was well presented and I loved it. I cannot wait to return again.

Great morning tea , would have loved to stay for lunch but we were a bit early.We are not vegetarian but if you are this is the place to be .

Really cute garden with lots of tables inside and out. Read all the rave reviews but unfortunately didn’t live up to expectations. Coffee was very milky and bland. Corn fritters too dense. Mushroom Benedict was the best thing we had that day. Will give it another go and try something else.

First off let me say it's a real nice setting and has a garden area to enjoy your food. Staff were really friendly and food presented well. I got a breakfast on my visit ," the meaty one". I asked for extra egg and sausage which brought my total to 13.50 for the breakfast. A bit expensive I think. The breakfast itself was not what I was expecting for a breakfast , maybe a lunch or dinner flavours. Saute potatoes had rosemary, sausage were Herby flavour and tomatos were not cooked enough , I like some colour and sear on my tomato. For me , if your looking for a traditional straight up working man's breakfast it's not the place. While it may suit other tastes , sadly for me it didn't but I'm certain from the packed cafe early on a Sunday it is.

Lovely place for breakfast or lunch. Food is very tasty and cakes are amazing .

Consistently great food, and the best coffee I’ve ever had.

A lovely cafe with artisan style decor inside. The beef burgers were delicious and the ability to purchase beer on draught on a sunny day made it extra delightful!

Lovely atmosphere, love the old fashioned tea cups and plates, and even more the delicious food ( lemon and blueberry cake was yummy) Friendly staff , great seating inside and out , well worth a visit- thank you 🌸🌸

Have been interested to visit this place for a while. Unfortunately I have never been able to. So this review is based on the fact that it seems to be impossible to eat there. The food might be fine, it might not, as have never had the chance to find out. For a number of years - not just during lockdown - the place seems to have been closed nearly every time I passed by. Tried visiting a month ago, but it was closed due to covid. Tried visiting today (@2pm, three hours before closing time) to be told the chef was refusing to cook any more food as the kitchen was too hot. It has been rather hot recently, but today it is 23 centigrade in Ruislip. If you can’t stand the heat, get out the kitchen. (Edit) Thank you Red Onion Cafe Owner for your swift response. May I humbly suggest that if the temperature is 50 degrees in your kitchen on day when it is 23 degrees outdoors, then it is you rather than I that has a flagrant disregard for your staffs’ well-being. Kind regards, Jack. (Edit 2023) After years of trying to eat at the Red Onion Cafe, but failing for various reasons - see above - have finally managed to eat here. I like the food so have rerated from the previous 1 star to 4.

We had a brilliant experience! Delicious vegan and meat breakfasts, very tasty coffee as well. Beautiful and cosy place, friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Brilliant place! The staff (both servers and the kitchen) are just amazing: very understanding, accommodating, and professional! I was genuinely impressed by how well they handled a customised order and the food was top knotch! The dirty fries are great, hot dogs looked good, and the pesto prestige transformed into a salad purely brilliant! Also pet friendly ❤️

My first time visiting this cafe after I had heard many good things about it. I can honestly say I did not leave disappointed! The staff were great, very friendly & really helpful with everything. The cafe itself was well presented with a great garden. Food was great ! My breakfast was amazing. Good quality product & well presented. They also have a great selection of handmade cakes which looked delicious & my banana loaf was magnificent, I couldn’t recommend more highly. Easily the one of the best spots on the high street if not number one! Will definitely be returning

I am so confused as to how this place remains open, the latte tasted like either they used milk that had been left outside or they re frothed milk. The coffee itself had little caffeine so either old beans or poor extraction. Either way it lacked any quality despite asking them to remake it, it still didn’t taste nice. Considering the investment in a La Marzocco coffee machine. The coffee waitress was nice and was trying to help make it a nice a meal but more was to come with the food. The scrabbled eggs had more whites than yolk so came out a white/grey colour and tasteless. The smashed Avo was still hard in parts and flavourless. I left unsatisfied and £16 poorer. A shame as I really wanted to like this place.

Went for breakfast. Coffee is really really good . Friendly staff. Nice food

It's one in a million places to have amazing staff like Thalia to make you feel like home, delicious food to remind you of childhood and creative design to make your brain thickly. I found my perfect brunch house. Thank you and see you again soon.

Lovely garden at the back of the cafe was a great surprise. Food was tasty but the bacon and bread were really crispy which made the dish hard to eat as a whole and not just in separate parts. Pieces of halloumi were massive and juicy.

It’s just always beautiful tasty food!!! Love the sweet corn fritters.. avo on toast only bad thing is I can never decide as food is always soooo tasty and you can tell the quality is so good. Bloody Mary was very good! See you again soon…

Lovely cafe where my dog was welcome in their garden. Vegan breakfast delicious.

This is one of the friendliest places in Ruislip. They have some “huts” out the back. The hot drinks are generous. Service is always top notch.

Amazing burgers and coffee, super happy with it and I’m very picky!

This was the first restaurant I went to when I moved to England. Fantastic local place and has a great breakfast offering. The sauteed potatoes are incredible. Great people and the back garden area is lovely when the weather is nice.

I came here with my wife for breakfast as we had seen the very positive reviews on Tripadvisor. Rarely have I been so disappointed. Even considering it was busy, we waited nearly 45 minutes for two breakfast rolls. My wife had the halloumi and chilli bap, which barely tasted of anything. I had the bacon, egg and cheese which, as soon as I picked it up, literally poured with oil. A rough estimate would be at least a dessert spoon full of oil in on the plate, without factoring in what the brioche bun had already absorbed. The bacon was also incredibly fatty. The only positive was that the coffee was good.

The most amazing place in Ruislip to have breakfast/ brunch. Their cakes are delicious too. Couldn’t recommend it enough! ❤️

Rude staff, clearly thought they work in Karen's Diner. Food also expensive for an average meal and the plate was dirty. The toilet could also do with a deep clean. Disappointing.

All the food is amazing, I highly recommend the burger and the masala toastie! Make sure you get some cake as well, the coffee walnut and raspberry Nutella cake were both divine! Can’t recommend this place enough.

I visited red onion cafe today that a friend suggested. The service wasn’t great No enough staff available to serve customers And the food was okay I ordered food and drink asked for extra hot latte but the latte wasn’t enough hot. I asked for tab water and no one brought it.

Creative food, really enjoyed it.

Lovely café I've been meaning to visit for a while. The staff is super friendly and the coffee is amazing. The garden at the back is adorable, such a pleasant atmosphere. I had a mushroom toast with pea shoots which was really tasty and shared some sweet potato fries which were pretty good! My partner had a hot dog and an amazing strawberry milkshake. Really like the vibe of the place. Update! Came back today, love the garden just as much. Had the avocado halloumi and sweet chilli jam toast and it's just delicious! Masala fries to share and a garlic mushroom hot dog which I hear is pretty nice. Recommended!

Went into RO on Thursday at around 3pm Really wanted the mushrooms on toast. Unfortunately i was told, kitchen closes at 2.30pm everday. there after i was told just coffee and cake or cold drinks. We had coffee . Went in yesterday Good Friday at 1.30pm ordered mushrooms on toast again, only to be told there isn't any left, even though in the display cabinet/chilled cabinet opposite where i was sitting, there was to 1 big bowels of mushrooms and 1 of portobello mushrooms , i explained my annoyance to the girl, who came back and said they could offer a very small portion of mushrooms on toast.(i was happy with this, better than nothing) After a bit another girl came to take my order, i said hadn't that girl taken my order, she checked came back and said no she hadn't. At this point i said my thank yous! and left as i had ran out of time as had eyes test across road at 2.20pm... had a lovely coffee in Nero instead.

No food after 2.30pm Even something as simple as mushrooms on toast. Basically turns into a coffee/cake shop there after Also went in good Friday at 1.30pm to order Mushrooms on toast...to be told they gad ran out even though i was staring at 2 big beautiful bowls of fresh mushrooms/portobello mushrooms. Seriously, after a little discussion i asked the girl to ask for me...she came back and said they could do a very small portion. Great, something is better than nothing, after a bit another girl came to take order, i said i thought that girl had done my food order, she came back no she sorry she hasn't, ok thank im going to have to leave it as have appointment at vision Express at 2.20pm and left. Grabbed a lovely cup of coffee at Nero. I believe the cafe has been taken over by new people and have made significant changes...im just disappointed in no being able to get even a simple dish in a cafe at 1.30pm when the issue wasnt lack of mushrooms...i found it quite frustrating. I work long hours and do shift work and just fancied a little treat in a genuinely lovely cafe but unable to keep up with the growing demands unless you just want coffee and cake!!

I went here with a friend the other day after not been for a while and was greeted by a young lady with no smile and the bacon roll I ordered was a small bun with very little bacon and on the side salad it's not what I wanted and it was very disappointing

Lovely friendly service, and food was decent enough and served relatively quickly. My latte could have been a bit stronger and more flavoursome. There was a lot of foam on top but just a small quibble.

Wish I'd caught breakfast. The lunch was ok but not great. We ordered chicken katsu fries - soggy and too sweet. the sour dough halloumi dish was very nice and the seed salad was a lovely touch.

Eaten here twice now and thoroughly recommend the Red Onion cafe - great service, great choice and thoroughly great food. We will be returning many times.

Had to meet a relation who was flying from LHR & had travelled from Stockport. Discovered this gem on Tripadvisor. Great choice from full english to waffles to coffee and home made cakes. Lots of young, enthusiastic and smiley staff. Would definitely return if it wasn't 40 minutes way.

Wow! Fabulous breakfast. Great vibe, classic tunes, killer coffee! What’s not to love???
