Popped into the village to get some meds from the chemist and asked the lady who served me for recommendations for the best place to grab a breakfast. She recommended Bennet’s without hesitation.
I ordered the full English and the Mega milkshake because I’m a pig.
The food was lovely except for the bacon which was really dry as if he had been sitting around for a while. Everything else on the plate was fine.
The milkshake was also great.
The cafe is small and cosy and is clearly a favourite for the locals as many customers coming in and leaving seemed to know each other.
If you’re visiting the village as I was and wondering where to grab a brekky, then this would be the place. Internal and external seating available and dog friendly.
Definitely recommend going for brunch/ lunch if you are in the area.
Really cool place with great selection of cakes, breakfast and brunch options.
Went for the first time today with my little girl, what a lovely place, staff treated my little girl like a princess! She loved it! Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Would absolutely reccomend and will 100% be back. Thanks 😊
This is the best place for breakfast in Thrapston. Now, you might argue that it's the ONLY place for breakfast in Thrapston, but that doesn't detract from the fact that this is a fantastic place. The breakfasts were very good indeed, with great butchers' sausages. Staff were very attentive and accommodating. It's not huge, and there often seems to be a little queue to get seated. They do takeaways, too. A couple of tables out front and outside seating at the back, too. The toilet is a bit of a mystery-tour trek but nice enough. Dogs and children are welcome. Should I find myself in Thrapston again, I will have to pop in again!
We were travelling from Rugby en route to Cambridge when we decided to leave the lorry populated drudgery of the A14 and take a break. We left at Thrapston and parked up at the free car park next to the Co-op. The town was small with a few pubs, the usual charity shops and a couple of coffee places. We were going to check out one of the pubs, when Bennett's café front caught our eye. Feeling hungry we decided to give it a go, and we were not disappointed! We were greeted with a smile and were immediately made welcome. There was more than adequate seating space, and the menu was excellent; lots of good choices, with some imaginative creations one wouldn't expect at a high street café in a small town. We were served by three people, all of whom were sweet and attentive. From the general conversations we gleaned that the place was popular with the locals, no surprise really when we saw the kind of food being served up. The meals were all freshly prepared from good, locally sourced produce. We had omelettes, generous portions which were full of delicious ingredients, including ham, mushrooms and sausage. Our meals were served in good time and in a genuinely friendly manner. We thoroughly enjoyed our food, you could tell that the chef had real quality. What a delight to discover such a gem, I highly recommend this place if you need great food, good service and don't want to pay the earth for it.
What a great find. Made an off A14 stop as we were hungry. It literally is just off the motorway. Lovely market town. We had a small all day breakfast. Very friendly people. Food good and great specials selection. Popular place. One small off putting thing was dust and dead bugs in the window. Not where people sit but visible from outside.
i love this café, the staff are polite, the food is well made and affordable, the atmosphere is relaxed and mostly quiet despite being located on the road, it is a great place to eat out, but bring empty stomach because the portions are large :)
I absolutely adore this place ❤️
I always make the effort to visit them when I’m visiting my parents who live close by. The food and coffee are great and the staff are so friendly!
I can’t recommend enough
We found this delightful café almost by accident due to the rain. However, what a gem. The food is delicious as is the coffee. The staff are attentive and friendly and the atmosphere is good. Highly recommended.
Always a pleasure going to Bennett’s. The service is great, the menu has lots of options, and the food is delicious!
