"Lovely British run cafe with specials like the “Cornish pasty* “ I had with chips and beans for about 10.50. (*Whilst it was lovely and homemade and I’ve no complaints, in fact a more accurate description would be a meat pasty or even Yorkshire pasty as it wasn’t cramped on the side but the top and the filling wasn’t quite exactly Cornish ). But that’s just so you don’t get too excited and disappointed if you are from Kernow! Great option of a big mug of coffee too and the carrot cake was also delicious (nice touch, served with ice cream which looked & tasted like clotted cream Cornish ice cream - delicious! )."

"A great spot for breakfast in Mijas Pueblo. The food and coffee are very good, especially the pancakes and scones, and the prices are reasonable given the quality of the food and service and that you are in a very turistic place. The waitress was very kind and helpful. Note that it is often busy, but the wait is worth it."

"What a lovely place. I had the large lemon breakfast and it was amazing, it set me up for the whole day, I didn't need anything else to eat. The service was first class and it seems to be very popular as there was a lot of tables with reserved on them. If you're visiting Mijas then give them a visit, you will not be disappointed."

"We have visited here three times now and there's a few good reasons for our return... Banging breakfast (hot, fresh, tasty as hell, and very good value for money)... Lunch-time menu is just as good and there's something for everyone... The setting outside is great, as is the speed of service. Massive credit to both the owners & staff for giving it's customers a great experience, thank you!! Please give it a try, you won't regret! Same time next year guys"
