It wouldn't be Christmas with out a visit to Blakes, our go to place for a family brunch...so many good memories over the years. Yes it is VERY busy but all the staff are excellent, friendly and super efficient. The food is really good, big portions and yummy cakes to finish with. Lattes and hot chocolates piping hot and a wonderful atmosphere

We had the Veggie Breakfast Plate. We paid £10.95 per person. The price for a teapot of tea for one person was £2.75. The portions of tea and breakfast plate were good. A more filling and appealing option could be added instead of spinach. I liked the atmosphere.

This place is a really excellent venue for serving breakfast. Much cheaper than a hotel breakfast and the food is cooked fresh to order. Full English, pancakes, stotties with sausage, bacon, egg etc options. Get there early as it gets popular and busy!
