This Cafe boasted of Outside Catering and Cappucinos. I couldn’t resist it. I went it. The last time I was here I had been given a coffee in a polystyrene cup. Things have changed, the place has had a facelift. I was the only customer, it was 8.55 on a Saturday morning. I ordered the breakfast platter and a coffee. I was asked if I wanted Bury black pudding and toast. I declined the former but accepted the latter. There were no chittys involved in this ordering process, my order was not written down. I sat down with the Saturday Sun. The woman who served me was keeping busy, she was re-filling pots of coleslaw and I saw her rolling knives and forks in paper napkins. She brought me a steaming mug of coffee just as the door opened. In came two young chaps wearing shell suits of varying shades of grey. They both ordered sausages on toast. They were told there was a 10 minute wait for sausages. They said that was ok. Next, came my knife and fork, rolled in a napkin, closely followed by my toast. The youths were talking about a fight that had broken out the night before. One of the young lads was absolutely disgusted that someone could fight in front of kids. I turned my head to the left to look at this youngster. I heard a microwave ping and then got back to my newspaper. I noticed there was a five pound money off voucher for Tesco in The Sun. I made a mental note to keep the paper. My food arrived. It was on a square plate, which matched the square mug. The food was piping hot and bloody lovely. The lads got their sausage on toast and I ate up. The woman asked me if she could open the door to let out the steam, but if the place got draughty I was to let her know. The door stayed open for less than 30 seconds before I complained it was cold with the door open. I actually said “cowd”, instead of “cold”. I have no idea why I said this. The food was amazing, it was all freshly cooked. The sausages had just the right amount of crunch on the outside. The egg was exactly how I like it (soft yolk, cooked on both sides, don’t like runny egg white). I had asked for well done bacon. It was. I don’t normally like hash browns but I gave them a go, I was not disappointed, they had a lovely, crispy, hot crust. I will not put up with luke warm beans, I didn’t have to. Toast had butter on. Mushrooms were tasty, non greasy. I paid £4.80 for the lot and could also have had a tomato and black pudding for no extra charge. I struggled to finish it but I did. I took my crockery back to the counter and told the woman that the meal was fantastic and she looked chuffed. She gave me a big smile and said tara
