As of June 2011 the premises were occupied by another cafe serving both Thai food and greasy spoon food, but this also closed in its turn. As of March 2014 the occupant is Costa Azul <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/13348973404/ photo]</small>, a Bolivian and Ecuadorian cafe (which is planned to move to Elephant and Castle at some point). |
[[bob]] visited on a Saturday morning in June. There were a couple of other customers in. There is seating for possibly 20 people. [[bob]] had set breakfast number 6(£3.95) with an extra egg(80p)<small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/4714046038/ photo]</small>. The eggs were slightly overcooked and lacking yolk. The bacon was very good. The black pudding was fine. The mushrooms were okay. The set breakfast came with a generous cup of tea with the tea bag left in and some decent toast from a white bloomer. |

[[bob]] visited on a Saturday morning in June 2010. There were a couple of other customers in, and a TV showing Saturday Kitchen with the sound on fairly loudly. I had set breakfast number 6 (£4) with an extra egg (80p) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/4714046038/ photo]</small>. The eggs were slightly overcooked and lacking yolk. The bacon was very good, the black pudding was fine, and the mushrooms were okay. The set breakfast came with a generously-sized cup of tea with the teabag left in, and some decent toast from a white bloomer. |
