the little cafe and coffee shop in Chelmsford

Lovely breakfast!!! As usual!!!

We stopped here for a breakfast recently and it was very nice. Always enjoy a full english and coffee and will use again if in the area.

Lovely café, had the roast chicken and it was lovely, lean chicken, lots of veg and the roast potatoes were lovely. The staff are friendly and the prices are reasonable with a lot of choice in the menu. Clean toilet and premises. Worth a visit.

Been here a number of times, and staff are always friendly and welcoming. Normally, for tea or coffee but the food they serve looks good.

As the name suggests, small cafe off of the main drag, lovely coffee and good service.

As most people have put reviews regarding the breakfasts I’d like to add, im yet to try them. however their pie and mash is spot on. Proper old London cafe style and the chilli vinegar is excellent! Been meaning to pop back in when I’m in Chelmsford again

I can be pretty picky with my food, I can't stand soggy, stoggy old food, and this place was on point and perfect! I will certainly be back!!!! Fantastic crispy chips freshly cooked to order, with a wonderful chicken mayo burger, and a cappuccino made with half the milk swapped for water, personalised, delicious and couldn't ask for better!!! Staff are lovely and charming, soft music in the background and everything is clean and bright. Will certainly tell everyone that this is the place to go to eat!

Cute little man server, wanna put him in my pocket

Best breakfast in Chelmsford, simples. I’m a well toured full English connoisseur and hands down it’s up there! The staff are more than welcoming and the food is great value for your money! P.S. please don’t take my window seat on a Saturday morning, it’s reserved 😉

Best breakfast in the town. Absolutely delicious bacon, beans, hot chocolate, and everything.

Great service, fast and welcoming, tasty food at a decent price

I had lovely coffee and full English breakfast. Nice friendly service and excellent value. I would definitely recommend

Delicious breakfast - all cooked to perfection (the bubble and squeak was particularly good). Will definitely visit again.

I had a full English breakfast and it was delicious. Staff are very friendly and attentive.

I can confirm this business is not over priced, if don't believe me try the over cafés around town..we are regular customers and pop twice a week for either breakfast or lunch..Memmit always gives us a warm welcome. First rate food at a reasonable price and cooked to order

Great little cafe and cheap. The staff are friendly and the food is good 👍

Could have got a 5 for the food, but the eggs were not free range and had a really milky look, not like a nice yellow middle that you get with free range. Apart from that all good otherwise.

Well over priced and very small portions, ordered scrambled eggs on 2 toast, barely enough egg for 1 slice of toast, mushrooms deep fried, could only taste the oil, £1.30 for two thin slices of tomato. 2 sausages and a glass of fresh Orange juice £11.50

Friendly local cafe. Good typical British cafe menu. Good friendly service with spotlessly clean tables. Seems like a lot of regulars there too which is a good sign.

Excellent service... Nice staff... Good food. What more could you want? Thank you.🤓💖

Best café in the area in my opinion!

A real treasure, food is great and consistent, great value, and I keep coming back as the server I think is called Memet, he is a real credit and asset to this business and is absolutely amazing, so friendly and nothing is to much trouble, And he remembers you and what you have previously order, and makes you feel wanting to go back. Service like this is rare now. Would 100% recommend a visit

Great place for breakfast..all freshly cooked, friendly servi e and good prices

i wanna demolish your cory like i demolished that sausage earlier. 10/10 gonna take the mrs here very soon as she is jealous.

Beautiful cafe great service great food would deffo come again

The coffee is so good, I keep going back.

Lovely place, excellent staff great prices and everytime I visit food exceptional.

Great little place,just like a London café xxx

Great choice if you’re looking for a full English brekkie. Proper sausage and great toast, nice mug of tea whats not to like. Well priced £££

Just what you would expect from a little cafe.

Ordered 2 special breakfasts and paid 50p extra for a latte coffee. Been here once before and the food was delicious and I can say that it was delicious once again! Very affordable cafe and great customer service. Thank you 😊

Lived in Chelmsford for 15 years but only ended up trying this place a few months back out of curiosity. I will cheerfully kick myself forever more for not having been here years before - both service and food are absolutely superb. Our family is three veggies plus one meat eater and no problem to have a lovely meal here whatever your personal setup. There are the usual 'breakfasts' on the menu but the staff are more than happy for you to chop and change what they come with plus other options like ham, egg and chips (which my youngest absolutely loved) and sandwiches, toasted if you fancy. The menu is best described as 'traditional' and done superbly well and with high quality ingredients. There's no shortage of cafes and restaurants in the middle of town that do breakfast/brunch offerings but despite the expensive, modern looking facades and menus, seem to be staffed by disinterested owners and kids working them who can't even get a coffee right. Eat here for a fraction of the price, leave stuffed and happy and wish you'd also tried it sooner.

This café is worth finding. We had delicious coffees here and the service was friendly. The owner has a very nice approach to people.

Great place, friendly staff and good reasonably priced food, well worth a visit.

Great little independent cafe. Friendly staff, naughty comfort food and reasonably priced. Recommended for a hangover cure. 5☆☆☆☆☆

Found myself at 8am in Chelmsford with an hour to kill before my appointment, busting for the loo and desperate for a decent cuppa. Stumbled across this unassuming café by chance, ordered poached eggs and tea. Perfectly cooked eggs, tea in a Pyrex cup (not seen those in a while) but tasted great. Service was effective today, polite and attentive without being ingratiating. Great start to my day.

Have to admit we went here when Wetherspoons couldn't serve breakfast until late morning. We were in Chelmsford for 5 mornings and ate here for 4 of them. Excellent choice, very reasonable price, delicious food and very friendly service. Thank you

Went there two days in a row while visiting Chelmsford. Firstly, spotlessly clean. Went to the counter and ordered a small breakfast: Egg, sausage, bacon, hash brown and bread and butter. Beans was on the menu but I was offered an extra egg on day 1 ans an extra hash brown on day 2 as I don't like baked beans. The sausage was a proper sausage: Cumberland and not the cheap one you can get from cash and carrys. Everything was cooked very well and was just right for what I wanted. However, the very best part was the tea. Served in a good sized mug but with a saucer and spoon, a separate jug of milk and a dish for the tea bag. Why can't other places do the same? It is not difficult or expensive and it just makes a meal so much better.

Tasty food, cozy environment, friendly staff and affordable prices! Will definitely come back.

Great cafe & great owner - super clean - best omlettes in town 🙏

This is the best cafe in Chelmsford, best food, best prices, best Mem. 11/10

Good to see the little cafe open again after their holiday, really missed breakfast here. Friendly service, good food and great price. Tried other cafe's and will not be going back to them

Well done Memmit, five stars, very friendly cafe a great place to relax and meet up with friends. Food is excellent quality and very fresh. Price is reasonable. Thanks for the service k

Extremely friendly, but what I had was better in a very near by cafe , and less expensive, very clean though.

Popped in here for an early breakfast one Saturday morning having read the good reviews and was very impressed. Friendly and efficient service and good quality food at a very competitive price.

Lovely breakfast and great service. Very clean and good value for money

Excellent cafe. Very good quality bacon and sausages. Me and my kids love it here. The staff are friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this little gem.

Mem and his family run a beautiful little cafe right in the heart of Chelmsford. The food is amazing and the prices are insanely good. It’s personally my favourite go to place for food, whether it’s raining or sunshine. Mem is always friendly great at conversation with all customers. If you’re looking for a great place to eat, you’ve found it. There’s something for everyone on the menu whether it’s a light bite, a full English.. a burger or a salad. This is the place to be. Absolutely love it here!

This is a cracking little cafe. Expect slightly higher prices, which are forgivable because they seem to use quality ingredients, none of those filthy "cafe sausages" here. Friendly staff, decent food, reasonable prices. I'll be going again.

Seriously good and tasty food - excellent service. Went above and beyond to accommodate us. The nicest breakfast we’ve had so far.

Friendly and efficient service, great quality food

Nice honest good value cafe. Proper sauces. Friendly service and great coffee. Does pie n mash too.

Good service, and food good apart from the mushrooms which. Were over cooked.

Good breakfast, friendly staff always a winner. Never had a bad meal here ever. Top place for a decent breakfast and other nice foods.

Great staff, very friendly, serving the best omlete that I've had.

Great service, great price, food cooked to perfection and very good quality, cooked meals always nice and hot and always made to feel welcome by the lovely chap who serves us

Excellent Food. Nice staff and fantastic coffee.

Had a lovely meal here yesterday lunchtime. The gammon steak was lovely & soft & my wife's baked potato was cooked to perfection. Also the cappuccino was really nice. Good prices & excellent range of food choices. We will use again in the future.

Might be a small place but there food is 10/10

Very friendly, very clean, food lovely. Tucked away in a side street with small entrance, I nearly missed it! Varied cafe menu. I had egg and bacon sandwich in white bread and a cup of tea. Milk comes in little jug. Also given a little container to put teabag in. Definitely worth a visit.

I had the big breakfast but I wanted to make a couple changes, that was no issue for these guys. they were very friendly and helpful. Will be returning again

Lovely. Friendly, good food and great customer service 👍

Excellent service and the food is impeccable. The chef is a cheerful chap as well 👍

Lovely cappuccino! Quick, polite service.

Outstanding breakfast, the bread was really fresh and tatsted fantastic, highly recommend!

I came in here with some friends recently and the service we received was good

Good bacon good service, nice 👍

Popped in this morning at 8.15am. Pleased to see cafe open. A warm welcome, as I was the 2nd customer of the day. They have just reopened after COVID-19 closure. Food arrived quickly and was very good, plus a reasonable price. All COVID measures in place, including signing in.

This place is great with a real friendly staff.They sever the best pie and mash around. All the staff are so welcoming and extremely friendly and actually want to talk to their customers and engage in conversations which is wonderful.

best fry up pie and mash in the city hope you open up soon been in loads of times i am in need of a nice fry up

A lovely, family friendly cafe with excellent service, tasty food and caring people. Really good attention to detail, especially on allergens etc. Brilliant

Traditional cafe. food is lovely. staff very friendly worth a visit

My Wife and I go there whenever we are in Town.The Staff are brilliant and very friendly. There Roast Dinners are good. For customers who have food allergies can be catered for also.We recommend all of our friends to go there. super Place.Thanks

Lovely food, great service. We will be back!

Great place for a fry-up, superb every time. Always cheerful service too.

Tucked away in Moulsham Street Chelmsford is this little gem serving THE best Pie & Mash in the city and always service with a smile.

Lovely food and pie and mash nice and tasty

Literally have come here every day for the past 3 months and they have never let me down, excellent service, excellent food, friendly staff. Best cafe I’ve been to in Chelmsford.

Wonderful little gem of a cafe. Food was great and so was the staff. Very positive experience.

Good service, excellent coffee and food. I should say that I'm very fussy about coffee.

The food really nice but that No EastEnd pie n mash. They do a Killer allday breakfast ..

A great little gem close to town centre precinct. Good food in a friendly atmosphere. Definitely go again.

love it .. a nice relaxing family run and lovely eating place .x special place for us

the steak chips as good as there fry up so if you need a break from shopping its worth a visit to see the menu just a good old fashioned proper cafe

Absolutely love this place, the staff are always so welcoming and accommodating. It’s lovely to walk in and get greeted with a smile every time! Me and my friend have been coming here for almost 2 years now and will continue to go as long as the building stands. Definitely the best fry up in town.

We love this place and we return time and time again. If your the type of person who only enjoys free range, hand raised, organic, vegan hummus this is not the place for you!However if you like a well cooked, simple menu. Made with quality ingredients and lots of choice that does exactly what it says on the tin. Severed by fantastic, friendly and accommodating staff then this is where you need to be.

Excellent food and great service and friendly staff.

Good customer service and selection of food

Had tea and breakky. Lovely owners and food

Lovely breakfast great service top nosh

Went in Sunday for breakfast. Service friendly and quick. Can't do enough for you. Food excellent and good value too. Definately going back.

I always pop in here whilst the wife has her haircut next door, nice clean cafe, food beautifully cooked and the staff are friendly and clean....

Small, friendly, reasonably priced.

Called in for a coffee before going to the cinema. Nice friendly team of people, good coffee at a reasonable cost and it is obviously a place that is used by regulars

This is a small family run café, but there is nowhere in town that beats it for good, freshly cooked, honest proper food and great customer service. We are regular visitors and Miriam & Mehmet greet us by name, as they do many of their customers. They are happy to amend anything on the menu to accommodate your preferences, or let you make your own selection, something you would never get in a "chain" café. All very reasonably priced too. Best bit - Miriam makes by far the best cappuccino coffee in town!!!!

A small friendly café. Cheap, good food. The full english is excellent

Great little place to grab a bite to eat and good prices as well. Staff very friendly and would recommend to anyone.
