Sanjay's in Tunbridge Wells

Friendly staff, fresh food, best in town

Sanjay’s is an excellent cafe located in Tunbridge Wells on St. John’s road near Sainsburies. The food is of exceptional quality all freshly prepared and locally sourced. The service is outstanding and you will feel well looked after here. The pricing is also extremely reasonable. I visit as often as I can. Highly recommended.

Best English breakfast in town by far, great prices, and a traditional cafe feel that is hard to come by nowadays. Loved it!

Breakfast cooked perfectly. Good coffee and staff on point. Would recommend 👌🏼

Good breakfast, unspectacular, but extremely tasty. We paid under £10 per nose. That was cheap for what we got. I can only recommend it.

Because of the many good reviews here, my partner and I decided to have breakfast here. We were certainly not disappointed. I had the full English breakfast, my partner had the avocado sandwich. Both were served in very generous portions and cooked to perfection. Good staff. So, certainly one of the best places in RTB to have breakfast.

Had big breakfast the quality of food was very good not cheap sausages and bacon The service was friendly staff and food cooked to order clean and tidy tables and floor

Very good fried breakfast well worth a try.

Great breakfast. Best breakfast, I have had in ages. Will be going back

Great food, nicely cooked and plenty of it. However the toilet facilities are a bit grim, best go before you arrive!

Sanjay is a legend and his food doesn’t disappoint. Simply put - this is the best fry up I’ve eaten in a long time and I’m an expert!!

One of the best places to get a full English breakfast in tunbridge wells. If not the best it is by far the best value. The coffee has a great taste, the portions are large and the service is always friendly. Never been disappointed. The only issue is getting a seat, the venue is small so it's not always possible to get a table. When this has happened I have done some shopping and popped back in the hope I get lucky so far only once had to go elsewhere. My wife loves the Asian style omelette 😋. Its difficult to give it more stars for atmosphere as its often full, and can fill very busy. Take people you want to be with and it's always great. Keep up the good work Sanjay.

Made a terrific meal not on the menu, excellent service and a great sized coffee which tasted good.

Very good for value! Coffee and tea can be improved.

I ordered the breakfast sandwich from Sanjys after hearing only good things from people in the area. The size of the serving was huge, although there was no need for the side “salad” or the chips - they did state for £1 less they would remove the chips. Overall taste was expected and reminded me of some of the best greasy spoons. The bacon had a fair bit of stringy fat, not to my liking but others may enjoy. The only real let down was that the hash browns had been deep fried and so had the chips - which added a lot of grease and oil to the overall flavour.

Full English breakfast always cooked to perfection and very reasonably priced.

Best breakfast in Tunbridge Wells 💖 vegan breakfast was delicious 💖 lovely staff as well :)

i have know Sanjay for 20 years and i use this lovely café regularly fantastic food and service and excellent chef i think i trained him he is that good good luck with the business just keep sending out excellent food

Amazing breakfast, that was brilliantly cooked. Went as a family of 4 and everyone was satisfied with the food and flavours. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of going!

My favourite place to eat always lovely

Can't fault it. Perfect breakfast.

Popped in for a bacon and egg sandwich. Probably the best one I've ever had! All the ingredients were top quality. Will definitely be back soon 👍🏻

Have to say this is no greasy spoon! A great breakfast menu which is sensibly priced with good portions and nice ingredients. Lovely to see a family business doing well and delivering great service with a smile in an efficient way!

Quite honestly the BEST cafe I have ever visited! And I've visited a lot ! The selection is awesome and tobe honest every dish is amazing! I absolutely love eating here!

The chef in this cafe really knows his stuff. The breakfasts here are incredible, it’s like having a home cooked breakfast, maybe even better! This is not a normal cafe. This is more bistro style fresh, very well cooked food. I would highly recommend 🙌 The staff are incredibly polite and the venue is small but clean.

Great breakie, massive portions

This is the place which u want to go for breakfast!! Best breakfast in town !! Everything fresh, very friendly staff and good prices!!

Licking fingers and plates good food

Hands down the best place for breakfast in Tunbridge wells. Such good value for money, not expensive, big portions and high quality food! Staff are so friendly and nice and cozy inside. It is our go to place every time.

Best breakfast place in whole Tunbridge Wells, really good prices, very friendly staff. And the food is amazing it’s always fresh and cooked to very high standards !

Quite simply, the best breakfast I have ever been served. Sanj is a special man! I'd go as far as to describe him as a local legend.

Nice food but not worth waiting 2 hours for!!! I get that good food takes time but this place is on another level, first off didn’t even get a drink for 25 mins before I was even acknowledged! 1 man trying to do to much! Next time I think il opt for somewhere else u less I have a free half day!

Always great food and service. Probably the best breakfast in T Wells!

Best breakfast in Tunbridge Wells. Amazing food, great value and good service. Very pleased to try Sanjays, kept meaning to pop in and glad I did, quality food in huge portions. No complaints. Will be back.

Fantastic food. We five 1 1/2 hours just for breakfast. Sanjay is an excellent cook

Absolutely amazing! About time we had a ‘proper’ fry up in Twells! Highly recommend. It’s only a small spot and it’s really busy but when your food arrives you’ll know why!

Lovely little cafe with fab food and reasonably priced.

Small, family run, lovely staff and amazing fresh food, highly recommended to anyone looking for a good breakfast.

Giving 1 star because the coffee was nice as were the hash browns. Once we had squeezed into a tiny table in the corner of the busy cafe we waited nearly 10 minutes for someone to take our order because it was "very busy" and we ordered 2 coffees and 2 breakfasts. Some 20 minutes later someone came back to take our orders? They then found our original order on the counter. Another 40 minutes later we finally got our food none of which was right by that point we were past caring. The food was not great quality at all and the sausages were dreadful. I have had better fry ups in greasy spoons for half the price. Luckily we aren't local so it's no great loss to us but honestly save yourself the time and don't bother. Wish we had gone next door.

As small local breakfast place it’s - great! Quality ingredients, such as eggs, bacon, sausages and large portions. Ventilation could be better.

The absolute best breakfast + baguettes in Tunbridge Wells. Sanjay is a fantastic cook, and gives such generous portions! A definite 10/10

Have left reviews for Sanjays before but wanted to leave a updated review. All breakfasts are cooked to order not re hearted

Outstanding. Tasty sausage and egg nap made to order and very well filled. My younger colleague couldn't finish his larger breakfast bar which is unheard of. Will be back when next working near Tunbridge Wells. Thank you

Once again Sanjay, you come through with the goods. Your black pudding is more addictive than crack cocaine Cheers Sanjay, I'll be back in this morning around 10am. I'll be wearing a blue jumper with red writing on it

Had a great breakfast here the food was good the service was also really good.

Amazing portion sizes and food tasted lovely too, good little cafe along the main road. 2 brunches and 2 drinks for under £20 in Twells, will be coming back!

Good prices, excellent food. Friendly staff. Only downside was a very cramped room with poor table layout, which made for an uncomfortable visit.

Never had a bad meal here and always bring our friends and family when they come to stay who are equally as impressed.

Best full English breakfast ever. Lasted me until dinner time and tasted fab.

Sanjays serves traditional full English and Vegan options. Staff are very friendly and keen that you enjoy your meal nothing is too much trouble as everything is cooked to order. I have been going for many years and personally feel they make the best Bacon and Sausage sandwichs in Tunbridge Wells!

Came on recommendation from a friend - clearly a very popular brunch location with tables turned quickly and filled again immediately! Looks like a regular caf but actually they have lots of meals to choose from, not oily nor greasy, nice coffee, delicious food and we will be returning! Thank you Sanjays!

Staff were very helpful. Portions were generous and very well cooked. Thoroughly enjoyed the food.

How kind & generous are Sanjays x I didn’t notice the closed sign & bowled in after seeing people at tables … 🙈🙈 it was their staff party & Sanjay cooking for them … 🙈🙈 I’d already asked for two takeaway coffees before I realised 🤦🏼‍♀️… not only did they oblige with the best coffee but wouldn’t charge me … there’s certainly good people in this world , sooo kind . Thank you ☺️

If you are after a piping hot full English this is the place to go in Tunbridge wells . All breakfasts are cooked to order not pre cooked then re heated, the quality of the sausages and bacon are excellent not cheap quality’s you get in many cafes these days .if you have never had a breakfast here I 1000% recommend it

My wife and I met our daughters while In Tunbridge Well. Sanjays’s is quiet compact, but that didn’t stop the guys serving up one of the beat full English I’ve had in an age. Very friendly staff, great choice on the menu and a superb food. I know it sounds daft, but their toast was amazing.

Excellent breakfast at a very reasonable price. I had the big breakfast for £9 and it was top notch. Friendly people - was even asked if I wanted more toast, which I had to decline as I was stuffed

Quality of the food is good. Prices are confusing as i ha e been charged for a bacon sandwich £6 takeaway when in menu the bacon sandwich with a salat and chips is 5.85 to eat in. I thought is the other way around cheeper when you take it to go. Been overcharged, the order, even if it was simple: bacon sandwich with brown toast and chilly sauce, got all messed up. I got a bacon sandwich woth bround bread no sauce no toast. When reported i have been told to take it or i have to wait 10 minutes. I forgot to. Mention that i have already been waiting for it for 10-15 minutes. The new bloke who was serving could barely understand what you are speaking with him. Mr Sanjay was always an amazing place to go for breakfast., maybe that's why i am so disappointed.

Delicious food, cooked fresh and all with a warm welcome too!

So glad I chose to call in at Sanjay’s. Sunday morning and was in much need of a good breakfast. Cafe was open early and I received a warm welcome and presented with an outstanding tradition English breakfast. Could not fault the quality of food and service received. I recommend highly

Lovely fresh food great service too

Amazing place to have breakfast on a Sunday. Friendly and accommodating.

The best way to start your day - whenever I have a free morning I head down to Sanjay’s for the best breakfast in Tunbridge Wells. The big breakfast which cost less than £9 will see you through to dinner and put a spring in your step. The coffee is great too. A nice friendly local cafe. Will highly recommend.

Kfc and McDonald's stand down .... Sanjay does the best chicken burgers, plain or spicy in town. For sure the best chicken burger Ive ever had .... truly yumski

Went with a friend for a traditional English breakfast, and we both really enjoyed everything Sanjay's had to offer. We arrived around 8:30am (mid week) and there were plenty of tables free, so we sat down at one and had a look through the menu. It wasn't long before our order was taken, we were given the option to sub out parts of the Full English, this isn't always something you get at other places. Our drinks arrived quickly and the food wasn't far behind. The food tasted great and wasn't a greasy mess like you might get at other cafes. Great value for money, and well worth a visit if you are on the look out for an amazing breakfast place.

Value for money on the Big Brekkie is hard to beat! Will be back.

Best place in Tunbridge wells for breakfast 😋 👌

I will only go to sanjay's I love the food and it is good value for your money

The Perfect Cafe. A Big Brekkie from Sanjay’s is the benchmark cooked breakfast by which all others must be judged (and will come off worse).

Just awesome! Delicious, well presented, tasty and very generous portions.

Sanjay's Cafe is by FAR the best Cafe in the area. The food is unmatched in quality and size. Easily the best big breakfast ever - and great coffee to boot. To top it all off, Sanjay is such a nice person and the customer service is on point! Try it, you won't ever go back to your old Cafe!

If you're after a no frills, honest and traditional fry up, you just can't go wrong. The friendly, welcoming and professional service was great, and the quality of the food and cooking was spot on. A real gem in Tunbridge!

Great food, excellent service. Lovely family run business. Highly recommend, especially good full English.

Best food ever not many tables but i still manage to always get 1 and the food very quick only take about 5 to 7 mins normally

Always unbelievable food every time I come here. Sanjay is the nicest guy you could ever meet as well. The portions sizes are huge and are very reasonably priced, particularly at the moment. I can’t think of anywhere else in the area you could have breakfast and hot drinks for 5 people for less than £50!

An excellent breakfast with lots of vegetarian options too. Opens early on a Saturday.

Was down for work and recommended this place by someone who lived in the area. Had the Sri Lankan chicken club sandwich was one to the best I’ve had. Highly recommend and will be back!

Really lovely (and huge!) breakfast at a very reasonable price, very smiley and helpful staff . We will definitely be going again!!

Sanjays is the best place for brekky, portions are huge, hot and tasty and the staff are amazing. Sanjay is THE MAN

Generous food portion, lovely vegan breakfast - very flavourful! Food are made fresh, lovely staff.

Honestly, the most amazing breakfast! 11/10 recommend.. Generous portions for a great price, can’t wait to come back!!

I went there with my friend Era.. had a tummy full brunch along with Sri lankan ginger tea... I highly recommend this place.. 👍👍😊😊

Had a delicious breakfast this morning. Really well cooked and very hot. Lovely toast with butter too. Quality coffee as well. Look forward to coming again but right now I’m too full to consider eating again! Looks like a very popular cafe and lots of customers greeting Sanjay by name, so he has lots of repeat customers.

Excellent food for prices charged, great choice and excellent & friendly service. Thank you, I will be back!

First time,but food was good and enough for anyone plus price was ok

Great food quality ingredients friendly helpful staff, been several times now and always to a very high standard

Absolutely fantastic in every way - quality, value, service and piping hot too

Seemed a decent place. Not cheap but good sized portions and mid-quality ingredients and all cooked well. Busy but they seemed to do a good job looking after everyone. I'd go again if I'm in the area.

This was an amazing breakfast! We had 3 Full English breakfasts and poached eggs on toast. The toast was thick, the poached eggs runny as requested. My daughter ate all 3 of the eggs! The Full English breakfast's were cooked to perfection, the food was properly hot and the bacon and sausage good quality The had browns were chunky and the beans and mushroom hot and seasoned grilled tomatoes - finished the meal off perfectly. We even ordered chips which were great but which we didn't do justice! It really was too much food and we were so full at the end... food comas were mentioned! It was a great big hearty meal for a small price served by great staff. This was our first visit but it won't be our last. They do black pudding too (so middle child sorted!).

What you want in the morning, 10/10 nice staff go here to get your belly full. Not too greasy but greasy enough. Not too posh but not too rough.

Best brunch in Kent! Biggest portions of the tastiest perfectly done food and great customer service. Extremely satisfied with my meal and time at Sanjay’s!

After an early 6am meeting (may sound oddly too early but it's the only time my clients had before their morning train commute to London), it's nice to grab a nice breakfast before getting started for the day... Have never been to Sanjay's Cafe before (even though it's 2 minutes walk from my flat) but glad I have now been as breakfast was a pleasure... Freshly cooked scrambled eggs on proper thick buttered toast, which was just what I needed... From what I saw of the other cooked breakfasts coming out to other customers i'm keen to return to eat more! 🥚🍞🧈🧃

Very good food good value for money friendly staff It's a small place so can get busy

Service and food is amazing. Sanjays never disappoints. A must try if in Tunbridge Wells. Perfectly cooked breakfasts and burgers. Their vanilla latte is amazing. Friendly family run business

Excellent value and great service. Local and lovely. Will be back and definitely recommend. Great portion sizes and flexibility on options

Thought i would pop in on the way to work. Had a tummy teaser breakfast asked for plum tomatoes as this was a option on menu never recived them. Sausages bacon and hash brown where all over cooked egg was under cooked and coffee tasted like a instant

Sanjays has become our top go to for a fry up , big breakfast with an extra fried slice, the coffee is a delicious added bonus 😋. The best breakfast in Tunbidge Wells.

Totally recommend this little Cafe, food was amazing and the size of the breakfast was out off this world! (It actually beat my son who normally never gets full!)

Food is great and will make you sure that you will leave the cafe full and happy. Friendly staff and nice cosy place.

Nice breakfast reasonably priced. Quick service and friendly staff It's our go to cafe when I am in the area

Without doubt the best cafe in Kent. Always cooked to perfection. Everything on the plate is hot and of good quality. Can't be beaten
