I called in this morning and it's good, freshly cooked food at a reasonable price and the coffee was very nice too.
The staff are really friendly too and they had quite a few customers in whilst I was there.
It is a bit confusing when you go in because it's not clear whether you order at the counter or whether they take your order at the table. It's the former but quite a few people were waiting at their table to order before they realised.
Also it is cash only at the moment and a few people left when they realised.
I also suggested that they put the menu in the window so that people can see what they're serving and the prices.
Will definitely go back next time I'm at that end of town for food or coffee.

That certainly is an impressive menu! The fry-up looks awesome too!

We walked past yesterday, and I'm sure there was a A board outside with the menu & prices on...

Do people still cook at home? Now that rationing is over

No, they forgot how to during rationing.

Although quite a few learnt new cooking skills during those long lockdowns days.

Yes there was an A board with one of the staff standing outside with menus yesterday. To be honest I didn't read the A board because I knew I was going in anyway to try the place out.
My suggestion of putting a menu in the window was more for those looking at the pictures in the windows or those coming in to read the menus or even those passing by when the cafe is closed.

Enjoying a drop of red.
Mmm. It's not like they haven't been setting up long enough to arrange card and contactless payment. So there must be some other reason for cash only...

Maybe they don't want to pay the commission for accepting card payments.

I know pubs that don't even have a till but that doesn't suggest any wrongdoing to me.
If it's tax you're thinking of maybe it's Government politicians you should be looking at.

Most of the takeaways near me don't accept cards & direct me to the nearest cashpoint round the corner.

When I lost my wallet I had to use cash and it was strange having to ask shops and pubs if they took cash, some didn't!!

Couple of years back the cashpoint next to the Bear was beeping, to my enjoyment there was £30 in the chute.The slip reported less than£10 balance. My own bank was able to ID source
Anyway long story short, cash was reunited with guy who was panic walking Greengate St with his carer
