Runaway Cafe - Lewes

Simply superb! I was delighted to see tea made from real tea leaves. Good tasting brew and gorgeous cake. This is how you do it.

We stopped for lunch whilst travelling. I had a delicious smoked trout salad and the rest had panini sandwiches and salad. With a lovely photos on the wall it is reminiscent of ‘Brief Encounter’. Staff were friendly and efficient. We will be back.

Warm, friendly cafe with so many choices of cakes, including gluten free! Lovely cup of twinnings tea and many others on offer. Such helpful staff too. Tables inside and really feels like an independant cafe. Certainly worth a visit!

I recently visited this cafe and tried their delicious porridge, which I found to be the best I've ever had! Packed with nuts and whole grains, every bite was a delight. Just a heads up though, it's made fresh so it does take about 10 minutes to prepare, which might not be ideal if you're in a hurry for a train. I also tried their vegan, sugar-free hot chocolate as a non-vegan and was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful and not too sweet it was. The service was friendly and overall, I highly recommend stopping by this cafe if you're passing through.

The service at the restaurant was good, but I have never tasted such disgusting coffee. It had almost no flavor until after I finished it, and it took me 3 hours and a whole pack of mints to get rid of the taste! However, on a positive note, it was at least warm and wet.
