It’s a genuine, down-to-earth spot with a welcoming atmosphere that captures that perfect roadside café spirit.
Food: 5/5
The food at Billy’s is top-notch. The menu is packed with variety, from classic full English breakfasts to lighter bites and homemade cakes. Everything is cooked fresh, served hot, and portioned generously. Whether you’re after something wholesome or indulgent, you’ll have no trouble finding something that hits the spot.
Service: 5/5
The service here is consistently excellent. Even during the busy breakfast and lunchtime rush, the staff manage to stay cheerful, efficient, and attentive. Orders come out quickly, and there’s always a sense of genuine hospitality that keeps regulars coming back.
Parking: 3/5
Parking is available, but it’s shared with cars, which can make things a little cramped—especially if you’re riding in and want to keep your bike safe. If you’re lucky, you can snag a window seat where you can keep an eye on your pride and joy while enjoying your meal. Despite this minor drawback, it’s rarely a dealbreaker given how enjoyable the rest of the experience is.
