Nice little cafe with a very light chill atmosphere. The full english breakfast was very nice. The hot chocolate with oat milk was delicious. Very filling and hearty.

There’s no doubt about the owner’s passionate personality—his dedication to serving excellent food to both the local community and visitors is evident. As someone from Blackburn, I thoroughly enjoyed my cappuccino. While I wouldn’t necessarily recommend the Eggs Benedict or American pancakes, I’d highly suggest trying the French toast and other desserts. The café also offers a charming, traditionally aesthetic atmosphere, thoughtfully crafted by the owner, which truly enhances the dining experience.

Found this place by chance. Amazing food, service and well priced. Staff are very welcoming and the cafe has a nice aesthetic. Ordered the desi breakfast, French toast and hot chocolate

The service was so excellent, very friendly staff. The food was so stellar, I will be dreaming of the French toast for years to come. Highly recommend the spicy chicken noodles.

The manager and staff are beyond friendly!!! The chai tea is by far the best in Bolton and the atmosphere of the cafe is so cozy and cute. Definitely a new regular customer here

I visited this cafe today with my friend for the first time and everything was 10/10. Such a lovely cute and homely cafe. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Had a lovely chat and giggle on many occasions. We ended up sitting for 2 hours because we enjoyed it so much. The food was lovely. Will definitely be coming to bolton to visit again. Thank you for having us x

Brilliant place for breakfast. We stopped by because we say it does gluten free options. And it did not disappoint! Both breakfasts (vegan and gluten free) were delicious and creative, the coffee lovely and the atmosphere friendly. The owner is passionate about the cafe and incredibly friendly. Would definitely recommend.

We spent a few days in the city to visit our mother/grandmother, and we came here for breakfast every single morning. From the very first day, we were greeted with such kindness and warmth. The owner is an incredibly sweet man. We had lovely conversations with him, and he made us feel completely at home. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared every time. We truly felt spoiled and cared for. The place itself is clean, cozy, and welcoming. You can really feel the love and attention that goes into everything here. We’re so happy we found this little gem with such wonderful people behind it. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town. Highly recommended!
