After winning a breakfast for two at The Coffee Roast at Vale House a few weeks ago, we visited this morning. The rain didn't stop us, just made the lovely breakfast even more needed! The parking was easy enough, it wasn't busy in the cafe and we got seated by the window on a pre-booked table for 2. Richie the owner came to speak to us, shaking hands with the lucky winner and explaining the changes in venues from Seaview originally to 2019 when he moved to Vale park, and also the changes in menu as they had to condense, as the location and weather can make the cafe busy serving up to 500 customers on a busy summer day. We took a few pics while we waited but we were served promptly: flat white for me and oat flat white and orange juice for the misses. We both went for a full English breakfast, I had to be awkward and asked for no beans or black pudding 😂, which were substituted for mushrooms and extra toast. The toasts came already abundantly buttered and the breakfasts were succulent: the herby and garlic tomatoes and mushrooms were delicious, the 10 inch sausage was juicy and the addition of the Ulster fry was a nice surprise to go with the bacon. Hash brown was crispy and the fried egg just how it should be. Beans were served in a separate dish and everything on the plate married well together. A very enjoyable experience and we most certainly will be back with our little one in the near future. A big thank you to Richie and everybody at The Coffee Roast for making us feel very welcome. I had breakfast at 9.30 this morning and it's kept me going all day 😃
