There is silence, peace and smell of a really old quarter, unlike central London. The staff was very quiet, even confused by foreigners. The portion of food was really big for an adult guy, but the quality of the food was worse. The hamburger was tasteless, and the curry chicken was very spicy. The environment is a little bit old-fashioned, but affordable. The English breakfast and the price of the food is the only positive thing. Very cheap, very simple food.

I recently tried the special 1 from the breakfast menu and it was amazing! It included bacon, sausage, egg, beans, bubble, two slices of toast, and tea, all for £5.50. I was impressed by how delicious and satisfying it was.

If you want a breakfast and not go to the generic menu at Wetherspoons this isn't too bad. They have increased their prices substantially of late but maybe that's for the rich hipsters and millennials in the area!

I have absolutely no complaints about their breakfasts! The food is fresh, hot, and served promptly. I would highly recommend this restaurant to both friends and locals. They have a diverse menu selection to satisfy all palates, and the window seats are ideal for watching people.

I went to this restaurant with friends for breakfast. The food was prepared with care and was delicious. The staff provided excellent customer service. However, some tables were not suitable for four people, which could be improved by management. The prices were reasonable and I will definitely visit again.
