Cons:

  • "The service was extremely slow and haven’t eaten there before we were extremely disappointed."
  • "Food was delicious but the service was incredibly slow."
  • "Service is slow to start with, waited 45 minutes for our food whereas the drinks came straight away."
  • "Very slow service, long wait for food, when you’re spending £42 on two portions of eggs Benedict I think £4 for portion of hash browns, a fruit juice and a coke you expect it all to be better."
  • "Service was a touch on the slow side but it was busy and the waiter made up for it with enthusiasm and friendliness."
  • "Food was lovely but the service let it down. Took ages for our food to come maybe 35 minutes for a the pancakes. Also wasn't as warm as would have liked."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The All American Pancakes are exactly what they claim to be a lot of places try and fail but here is spot on."
  • "All I can say is wow, the food here is just amazing! Probably the best breakfast I've had in a long time, serious compliments to the chefs!!"
  • "Probably the best breakfast someone else has ever made for me, I'm fussy, and i LOVED it."
  • "The food took long but was outstanding and definitely worth waiting for."
  • "Eggs were cooked perfect, sausages are probably the best I’ve ever had."
  • "The avocado and mojo picon on toast was finger licking good. The reggie veggie was very different and very tasty."
  • "The food and the portions were amazeballs!! The pancakes were soooo fluffy and the food combos were different but worked a treat."

Cons:

  • "Great service but the food was luke warm and quite frankly, over priced."
  • "However, the club was bland and the avocado really didn't fit."
  • "The beans, hash browns, sausages (were also awful, some kind of herbs and whatever), the crispy bacon wasn't; but fatty and dry."
  • "The rancheros was okay, not enough sauce for my liking and the Avo tasted like the defrosted type."
  • "Visited based on reviews but left severely disappointed. Took my family as a half term treat and we were very excited to try their famous pancakes. Unfortunately, they were stodgy, and the whole thing looked unappetising with the cream smelling like vomit my 8 year old said."
  • "Potatoes tasted like they were frozen, dense pancakes, weird crumbly sausages, tasteless scrambled tofu."
  • "The toast was overdone and dry, as were the hash browns."

Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "The atmosphere in the restaurant is very informal and homey."
  • "Nice retro styling inside, booths with banquette seating, high tables with stools and lots of kitch objet d'art."
  • "The atmosphere and decor was really good, with good music playing in the background."
  • "Such a nice vibe - came for breakfast and the staff were just lovely!"
  • "The atmosphere is casual, but music sometimes is a bit too loud."
  • "The cool and energetic vibe of the place sets the stage for an unforgettable breakfast experience."
  • "The vibrant atmosphere created a lively and enjoyable breakfast experience."

Cons:

  • "The atmosphere is great, but unfortunately I will be finding somewhere else for my smoked salmon and eggs now."
  • "a little loud for the music upstairs."
  • "It's very busy tho, so not the most relaxing atmosphere also the table top was very small and no sign of wifi."
  • "The place had nice decor but the lighting felt very dim, like the cozy feel but this was a bit too dark for my liking."
  • "Good atmosphere with plenty table space, although lighting was odd."
  • "The music was a little loud for my taste - but everything else was perfect."
  • "We were placed in a virtual queue in an app; that was very convenient, every restaurant should have this system!"

Value

Pros:

  • "You don't need to queue though as they SMS you with a 10 minute notice of when your table is ready."
  • "Popular and always busy but worth the wait. Rather than queue they encourage you to scan a qr code and they'll text you when your table is ready."
  • "Reasonably priced with size options to cater for all appetites."
  • "The prices were incredibly reasonable for the quality and quantity of food you receive."
  • "I had the all American which is a great value for money."
  • "Every person felt that they were truly looked after and could not find a single fault."
  • "Thought price was OK, less than £20 each for breakfast and drink."

Cons:

  • "Probably won't be returning as I expected a lot more for the money I paid."
  • "We was extremely shocked at the price, this is way over priced."
  • "Why are 3 quite small sized pancakes £14??"
  • "Accept it was £24 for a full breakfast and an orange juice… (oh and the cat park was £21.50 for 3hrs)."
  • "The drinks prices are mega expensive."
  • "The prices aren't cheap either so was expecting something special or at least a lot more filling."
  • "For 3 packages some crème,maple syrup and fruit it cost £13 each! I thought it was way over priced."
