Set up in the signal box by the swing bridge in Folkestone Harbour. A small compact cafe (with outside seating in warmer weather)
Coffee was great & tea was served in enamel mugs with milk in small glass bottles.
Food looked tasty (would have had some but we were shortly due to eat out & didn't want to spoil our appetite) - there was noises of appreciation from the other couple in the signal box.
Was a great chance to reminisce as I remember when it was a busy working line, so was nice that all the levers were still there & status panel lit up.
We visited in late June 2020 so lots of the social distancing measures were still in place and they were only able to do takeout.
That said we all really enjoyed our bagels and were massively impressed by the kids meal which was really good value (it included a drink too that's not pictured).
We drove for about an hour for this as a Father's Day treat and it was well worth it!
A lovely spot in a unique setting for a bite to eat. Very very yummy salmon bagel and indulgent banana bread - what more could you want! By the window, an excellent spot for people watching!
Great place to replenish yourself whilst exploring the harbour. Take the time to eat in if you can. Splendid views stretching across to Dover ferries. Iconic location. Options for kids too. Not cheap, but good quality.
Excellent bagels. The menu is a perfect selection of toppings for the beautiful soft inside and crispy outside bagels. Love the use of the old signal box, a little treasure being well looked after. We had a lovely family lunch here in half term. Quote from 11 year old son.... "best lunch ever". 🙂
Amazing coffee, a lovely place and cakes like I have never tasted before, and I know cakes!
The pastry on the sausage rolls looked lovely too, so thin but crispy/crunchy, 'I'm saving that for my next visit.
Amazing bagels, good strong coffee. My new addiction I think.
Great place to pop in, friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunately the hot salt beef was not available, only because it hadn't finished the cooking process at the time I was there, so opted for the chicken and bacon bagel, which was delicious, as was the coffee, will be back, thank you.
The best bacon roll I've had in ages the bacon really well done just how I like it nice and crispy .And great tasting flat white coffee
Amazing bagels and one of our favourite lunches in Folkestone!
