Came across this family-run café on a day out to Fleetwood Market. Just across the road from the market entrance, it looked small and unassuming on the outside, but inside it was homely and inviting, with comfortable chairs and some lovely decorative plaques and pictures of bygone Fleetwood on the walls. It was also very clean. The lady who served me (Carol I believe her name is) was so cheerful, chatty and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble for her. The café is obviously a favourite with locals, who go there regularly for lunch (always a good sign!). The extensive menu (displayed under glass on the tables) includes breakfasts, sandwiches, toasties, jacket potatoes, and good old-fashioned cooked dinners. They also do pensioners' specials. I ordered the liver and onions with potatoes and veg. It was cooked to perfection, with ample portions. Both food and plate were hot. No fewer than six different vegetables on the plate, and lovely rich gravy. The pot of tea was nice and hot. They also do a great selection of traditional puddings and ice-cream. Tried their homemade apple crumble with custard, and it was really good! Delicious strong coffee to finish. Payment was cash only. At £15.10 for the entire meal, including drinks, it was excellent value for money. If you're looking for good traditional homemade food and warm, friendly hospitality, you can't go wrong here. Would definitely come again.

This is a cash only cafe. They did not have a vegetarian breakfast option on the menu, but were very happy to modify and help create a lovely dish.
