On this visit I went for the cookie n cream milkshake, first time having one but was definitely nice. The wife went for a strawberry milkshake & she also thought the same about hers.
For food I had the cheese & ham quiche, with chips & salad, Ive had a few quiches from here both cold & hot, & they are always packed with tasty ingredients.
My wife had a salmon salad, but unfortunately the salad was dirty, we didn’t get chance to inform the staff, due to being busy with our daughter & family.
One improvement would be for some sort of air conditioning, or fans, as in this current weather its very stuffy/hot for both customers & staff.
Got a table easily, and ordered our food and drinks without having to queue. Drinks (a pot of tea and an americano) were served within a couple of minutes (coffee was nice and hot, teapot didn't dribble, plenty of milk served with both), and the food arrived a few minutes after that. Both of us had ordered the wide beam breakfast (to set us up for the day) and it was perfection! 2 butchers style sausages (deliciously herbed), 2 generous rashers of bacon, 2 eggs (fried, but not crispy on the edges), 2 incredibly crispy hash browns, a slice of black pudding, baked beans, some of the best mushrooms I've had in ages and a pot of chopped tomatoes. Plus 2 slices of toast each, with plenty of pats of butter. I was asked what kind of bread I wanted for the toast, and the menu says that you can specify how you want your eggs (fried, poached or scrambled) but I didn't ask for them to be changed.
Managed to eat all but the last 2 pieces of toast, and that was only because I didn't want to have to waddle back to the car! This is going to be my new end-of-term treat (teacher in a secondary school)
Free parking on the marina site too.
