OH WOW! First time trying here the other day and my mind was blown! Pulled pork baguette was one of the best i have ever had and the atmosphere was lovely. Black and white photos of Watton along the walls which sparked a conversation amongst myself and various other diners. Friendly staff and divine food!

This is a great Cafe. Great prices and value. The staff are friendly and will allow you to make small adjustments to your order. I'll often drive to Thetford from Swaffham to eat here. I'll buy the biggest breakfast on offer, get a coffee and a can of pop. Fried bread, tinned tomatoes, bacon and egg, what's not to love? My only gripe, is the mushrooms, I'm old fashioned, I prefer them open or closed cup, stewed tinned mushrooms don't really look good. The cafe was refurbished around 2 years ago, but still looking great. ( it used to be a USA themed thing, it was a guilty pleasure I miss. Lol) Great job
