What Polly F doesn't like about Sainsbury's Cafe:
They closed down the restaurant, and I'm not sure why. Many people miss it, so I recommend they go to Waitrose instead. They have tried it and prefer it. Sainsburys has declined in quality. Christmas sweets that were £3.50 last week are now £5 this week. Shame on you, Sainsburys. View all feedback. What User likes about Sainsbury's Cafe:
I visited sainsburys, alton invite for my Christmas shop this morning (a day I usually dread). I was very impressed by how well they were organized for the huge masses who did the same as I did. there were many additional employees engaged to help and re-encamp regale, all with a smile. Many thanks for having my shopping so much better than expected. well done and a happy christmas and a happy new year for all of you... View all feedback.

Sad it's now shut. Taken over by that awful Starbucks.

The restaurant recently closed, leaving many patrons reminiscing about its offerings. While some suggest alternatives like Waitrose for groceries, the café remains a favorite for breakfast lovers, especially for its light, fluffy scrambled eggs, though seasoning is self-service. Customer service varies; while most staff are friendly and helpful, a few reports mention occasional surliness. Limited menu options—soup, sandwiches, and porridge—are complemented by decent coffee and good value for snacks. Although cleanliness is noted, diners might find better variety at nearby competitors. Overall, it remains a reliable yet simplistic choice for casual diners.

Good for breakfast and midday hot snacks, but not full meals. Excellent retreat for a relax and coffee while spouse shopping.

My husband and I really enjoy the bacon sandwich at this café. The bacon is always high quality and the bread is fresh. It's very tasty.
