"Heard so many excellent reviews about this place I thought I 'd pop in and see what all the fuss is about. And I wasn 't disappointed. My GP has given me some tips lately, like leave the sugar out of your tea and seek the places that serve gluten free bread so I consider myself something of a fussy eater. None of which fazed the staff here in any way, shape or form. They had gluten free toast readily to hand and never batted an eyelid at my request for honey in my tea. But everything I 'd read about their Full English Breakfast turned out to be true. It was delicious. And the staff really pride themselves on their warmth and their ability to be helpful. Jen has perhaps the warmest smile and kindest nature in Southport. If I was being a nuisance with my camera (and I usually am) she never showed me anything except her huge and ready smile, and it was such a joy to be treated with such appreciation and kindness. The word of mouth reviews all call this place one of Southport 's hidden gems and I can understand why. I really will be back, if only because the lunch menu looks even better than the incredible breakfast. And the welcome that Peter, Jen and Katrina offer is stunning.

Me and my dad went in for a bit of a Halloween/Bonfire weekend treat at around 6pm. Lovely food drinks and staff. Really good vibe. I've got anxiety issues and this place is very suitable and calm for someone with those problems. It's not overwhelming as an atmosphere. Just good for nom and chats.

Wanted a bite to eat at lunchtime, but had the dog with us so couldn't just pop in anywhere. Then we spotted this place tucked away up a side street. What a discovery. Great food, excellent service, lovely atmosphere and dog friendly too. Reasonably priced as well so it ticks all the boxes. Highly recommended. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I went in as I passed the place on the way to a more well.known coffee shop. Thankfully I did. The place felt great, so relaxed and I was immediately greeted to let me sit anywhere free. I ordered a coffee whilst reading the menu. The coffee came and I was ready to order an avocado based breakfast. It came whilst the coffee was still warm. The presentation was superb, not like the packaged food in other places. The flavours and the cooked eggs were second to none. So glad I found this place and I will be back. They prefer cash, but I paid with card as I didn't have cash with me. Brilliant place. 2 coffees and a lovely plate of food. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Noise level: Quiet, easy t...

"Before the Covid pandemic, my wife and I used to visit this restaurant twice a month. The portions were excellent, the menu was extensive with some unique dishes (like doorstep rarebit and soup), and we always looked forward to dining here. After Covid, we were excited to return for our first visit. The restaurant still had its interesting interior decor with oddities hanging on the walls, and the menu seemed unchanged. However, our experience took a turn for the worse. Our starters arrived quickly and were okay, but then we experienced a significant delay with our main dishes. Other diners who had ordered after us received their food 7 minutes before us. There was no explanation for the 20-minute wait, and we were concerned about our car park ticket expiring. My wife's beef stroganoff was good, but I wish I had ordered it instead of my sirloin skewer with rice. The skewer was presented hanging over a small pot of rice, along with a small salad and a flatbread that was barely large enough to hold the food. It was difficult to eat the dish in this setup, and the lack of chargrilling on the skewer was disappointing. The peppers, onions, and steak were undercooked, and the meat was tough and gray. I had to eat plain rice until I could free up enough space to eat the skewer. It was frustrating not to have a plate to cut the food on, and I wish the staff had communicated the situation to us and offered us another drink while we waited. Overall, I'm unsure if I will give this restaurant another chance, even though it used to be our favorite lunch spot."
