This bright caff looks out through large windows at the broad flank of St Leonard's church across the street. Plates of prodigiously steaming dishes are delivered
promptly from a reheat, along with a mug of strong tea, in portions designed to satisfy local brickies as much as local media bohos.

The preparation area consists of a display case for salad and clingfilmed cakes, a counter for big pots of own-made stew, curry, beef pie and lasagne, and a range for frying the breakfast eggs. The staff are obliging but admirably unfussy (cakes arrive with a teaspoon rather than a fork), and the food, although a little sludgy from the microwave, is still tasty and satisfying.

Love the food, the place, the conviviality and relax attitude. Bring your own wine few friends watch the owner cook.

The place was empty Sunday lunchtime but me and the kids were turned away in the pouring rain - the owner was sitting chatting to her friends with her back to us, gave a dismissive shake to the waitress and we were rudely declined for just wanting drinks. Terrible and very short-sighted!
