Village Cafe - Medway

Not sure why the last few reviews were so anti. Popped in with my partner Sunday morning at 9:45. Busy but still some tables to be had. Service with drinks was pretty much instantaneous and with a smile, sone chat, and warm welcome. We both ordered a different large fry up breakfast, and both were superb, and very reasonably priced. Sausages were large and tasty, eggs well done, everything was hot and delicious. Toast was thick uncut bread with lots of butter. I had an OJ, large, which came as a pint, and was proper juice, not squash. Tea was piping hot and well made. Decor was classic greasy spoon but tidy and clean. Lots of happy faces in there enjoying good food and a natter, and the radio was on for some nice Sunday morning background music. These sort of classic English cafes done right seem to be a dying institution, which is a shame. Use them or lose them, I'll definitely be popping back soon!

Used to go to this cafe regularly with my parents growing up, visited recent with my parents for first time in few years and totally dissatisfied, burnt sausages, tight portions, rubbish service.

Cheapest nastiest sausages ever it seemed like everything was just deep fried the worst full English breakfast I have ever had

My family and I went to this restaurant for breakfast, but two of the meals were missing items and the quality of the food was poor. The sausages were like sponges and the meat content was questionable, the poached eggs were hard boiled, and the bubble consisted of only mashed peas. There was no apology for the missing items and one breakfast was missing eggs, fried slice, and bubble - all of which were brought over on separate plates at different times. The plates were collected with uneaten food still on them, and no one asked if the meals were okay or why so much food was left. Despite the low quality of the food, the prices did not reflect this - they even charged us for a cup of hot water. When we went to pay, we mentioned that we were not impressed with the food, but were told, "if you don't like it, don't come back" - which we won't. It seems that they were not concerned about losing our business as the restaurant was packed, although I cannot understand why people would enjoy eating there.

I recently visited this café for the first time and I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the food and the presentation of the breakfast. The items were haphazardly piled on top of each other, making it difficult to locate certain components like the eggs buried at the bottom. The sausages were of the poorest quality I have ever experienced at a café. The serving of beans was insufficient, clumped together, and of low quality. It was evident that the eggs had been left out for a while. I would advise those seeking a satisfying fried breakfast to explore other cafes in the area as there are many better options available.
