    Hands on the best big breakfast you can find in Reading. Good variety of food but can be quite packed during weekend's morning/noon. Be patient with the waiters. Warning: The wait on food can be long.

    Talk about value for money here!!! Make sure you arrive before 10:30am on Sat/Sun otherwise you will have to wait 30mins. Huge portions so come with an empty stomach. Great decaf latte!

    Great breakfast and coffee. You often need to queue for a table so take along a coat/jumper. Visiting when the students are on holiday also means a shorter queue!

    I almost tried all of their menu to be honest. From the pancakes to the eggs Benedict, Açai bowl and their new Turkish eggs .. they keep surprising me

    The Veggie Burger advertised as "Stuffed Portabello Mushroom" contained Mushroom but not stuffed. On questioning was advised by a staff member that the Menu board needs to be changed.
