Diners rave about the quality of the food at The Mess Room. The Mess Breakfast is a standout—a generous plate perfectly cooked, with flavorful sausages and fresh ingredients that never disappoint. Customers also fall in love with the coffee; patrons appreciate the rich, expertly crafted brews that elevate the dining experience.
Desserts receive high praise as well, especially the indulgent waffles with Nutella and cream, which often leave customers wishing they had room for more.

Most Disliked
While The Mess Room is loved by many, some guests mention occasional waits during peak times, particularly on busy Fridays when the café reaches full capacity. This can lead to a bit of a rush, which may detract from the otherwise relaxing atmosphere.
A few patrons have noted that the menu, although varied, could use a few more vegetarian options, especially for light lunches. However, the staff is always willing to accommodate dietary preferences, which helps ease any concerns. Overall, minor complaints do not overshadow the positive experiences most diners have at this popular café.

Lovely cafe, friendly, welcoming staff and good quality food. I had the Mess breakfast and a hot chocolate, both were scummy and just what I was after. It's a popular little place, and there is plenty of parking too.

A unique and independent run business. Staff are helpful, friendly and efficient. The menu caters for breakfast and lunches and the food is excellent. On a sunny day there is seating outside to soak up the location. It provides good food at a reasonable price. Definitely worth a visit.
