Vintage Snack Bar & Diner in Stoke-on-Trent

Worst breakfast I’ve ever eaten. Woman behind the counter was polite and looked like she was listening although wasn’t at all as everything was wrong. Asked for bacon and sausage roll and a cheese and bacon roll, 2 cans of pop, 2 blue drinks and a white coffee. My friend ordered simple things too such as an oat cake. They didn’t have any oat cakes or nice bread. Waited almost an hour for food to be cooked. But we weren’t actually waiting for our food. We were waiting for the lady to cook everyone else’s food first even people who came in after us. Then said everything was in the bag. Burnt bacon. white normal basic bread. No sausages or sauce. Oh and they forgot the cheese and bacon roll so she quickly cooked it and was done in about 5 seconds so I have no idea why we had to wait for so long. Could have walked to the shop bought bread and bacon and sausages and oatcakes, walked home and cooked it all and eaten it in less of the time spent waiting here. Absolute joke of a place. Don’t make a sandwich shop if you can’t even cook a bacon butty or improvise when a delivery is late.

For a truly authentic taste of Staffordshire oatcakes, go for the 3 oatcakes + 5 fillings. I chose 2x mushrooms + 1 each of onions, bacon, black pudding: sooooo tasty. Order a pot of tea as well, and this is a great breakfast or lunch. Smiling, friendly staff; no-frills surroundings; great value-for-money.
