Naively assumed that a ‘traditional’ station cafe might be able to present a decent breakfast… along the lines of similar establishments around the country. Very poor quality sausage lacking any sort of meaty flavour, lukewarm and with a nasty soft texture. I could well believe it was a veggie version but no suggestion anywhere that this was the case. Flabby bacon, hash brown tasted of old cooking oil as did the fried bread. A nice idea… but using up the crusts from the loaf is a bit of a cheat as they go hard. Also only half a slice of fried bread… seems a bit miserly. Egg was the best bit… clearly just cooked whereas the rest of the food looked and tasted as though it had been hanging around for too long and kept barely warm. Maybe my timing was wrong as I was there about 20 minutes before the end of breakfast service… that’s no excuse, quality should be up to standard whatever time the food is served. Disappointing… convenient location for a snack or meal when going past

Tried to order a assam tea that took 4 attempts. Also ordered a cheeseburger and chips. Burger arrived at 13:18 but no chips after the second time asking staff. The chips arrived at 13:54. Reason given was that they had new staff, who started that day. But why would you have new staff members operating a till and taking orders with no-one with them. The answer to that is no-one who is a good manager.

Situated in Toddington station, the cafè has lots of tables and space and is very well organised. We did not wait long for our food and it was really nice and tasty, perfect in between trains. Staff was very helpful and did their best. I believe is generally open to the public too so it is definetively recommended
