<b>Note:</b> According to [http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/193237 a May 2015 comment on the LondonSE1 forum], Al's Cafe will be closing down. We haven't yet confirmed this. |
[[bob]] visited at about 11:30 on a Saturday morning in July. There were a couple of other customers in and few more turned up while I was there. The cafe can seat 42 in fixed seating. I had the special breakfast(£5.50)<small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/4779106171/in/set-72157624340154803/ photo]</small>. This normally comes with Egg, Bacon, Sausage, Black Pudding, Mushrooms, Onion Rings, Hash Browns, Beans, Tea and optional toast. I swapped the beans for the tomatoes. The egg was well cooked and still had a runny yolk. The bacon was slightly crispy in a good way. The black pudding was cooked just about right. The tomatoes were very tasty tinned ones. The onion rings were slightly disappointing since they were the mashed onion type. The hash browns were fine. The mushrooms were okay. The sausage was a bog standard greasy spoon deep fried one so nothing special. The toast while not mentioned on the menu was free. It was made from a decent enough bloomer. |

[[bob]] visited again in December 2010 and had an egg and bacon roll (£1.90). Accessibility info: Large step to get in and quite narrow once inside. As mentioned above, the seating is fixed in place.
