| Brekkers Cafe was a basic roadside greasy spoon on the A23 near [[Locale Coulsdon|Coulsdon]]. It has now closed. Google Street View suggests that the closure happened around 2016. |
This is a basic roadside greasy spoon, almost (but not quite) as good as its near neighbour [[Full Monty Cafe, CR5 3EA]], and a little further south, so if you don't notice the Full Monty in time to stop, this one is a good alternative just a couple of hundred yards away. If you're south-bound on the A23 having gone through Coulsdon, it's on the left after the Full Monty caff. There's a small car park. If you're northbound, there's a layby on the northbound carriageway and you may then risk life and limb crossing the dual carriageway on foot. |

Food is basic greasy-spoon fare - good big breakfasts. It's slightly more expensive than its neighbour, but has a wider range of food on offer. All of it fried, of course. |
