Good food. Good service. Lovely lady!

I visited Aveda Cafe as a tourist in the area, and it was a wonderful visit. The cafe and its owner are loved by everyone who comes through the doors. I was surprised that no music was playing like in most cafes, but it seems so common for patrons to strike up conversation with the owner, music would distract from the socializing.
The owner also freely welcomes mail deliverers and others working outside to use the toilet, and she'll even give them a bottle of water.
The food was great at such a low price (5 pounds for a full English Breakfast), and the coffee as well.
Come by for an affordable meal, and stick around a while for some good conversation in a friendly, homey atmosphere.

I actually enjoyed breakfast at this place. TWICE with my partner. Only issue is there is limited parking and it’s nearly 5£ per hour!

We popped in for coffees when we were driving out of London last Saturday and were really impressed by the lovely lady who runs the cafe. The coffees were great and she even did some whisked-up milk for our toddler, free of charge. We'll stop by again next time we're in the area and hope to try some of the food on offer.
