Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers rave about the friendly and attentive staff at Bentleys, with particular mentions of Leanne and Charlotte for their helpfulness and warmth. Many diners appreciate the large portion sizes, stating that they leave satisfied after every meal. The full English breakfast receives consistent praise, especially with its perfectly cooked scrambled eggs and bacon rolls.

Most Disliked
While the overall reviews are largely positive, the occasional inconsistency in the preparation of poached eggs has been noted by patrons who prefer them runny. A few diners have also mentioned their discomfort during peak hours, which can lead to a bustling atmosphere at lunchtime—especially on Wednesdays when the café reaches full capacity. This can result in slight delays in service, which some find frustrating when on a tight schedule. Despite this, many agree that the food quality remains high, even during the busiest times, and the atmosphere makes up for any minor inconveniences.

The staff in Bentleys are absolutely amazing - so friendly, caring & helpful. (Especially Leanne & Charlotte) My dad is recently widowed and has been coming in for his sausage or bacon, scrambled eggs & chips very regularly. Leanne & Charlotte really look after him, and I’m so grateful to them, and all the staff. They’re just so friendly & helpful to all their customers. The food is great too, very large portions and they’re always accommodating to your needs. Brilliant place, thank you!

An absolutely lovely place, the staff is so friendly and the food fresh. I go regularly fir breakfast there, they really have a good choice. Only small improvement would be that the poached eggs are not always runny.

Been here a few times now since its changed hands and had a great meal each time. Very large menu which takes some going through, including Turkish dishes. Very reasonably priced. Large portion sizes; last time had a jacket potato with curry that could barely finish (see photo!) Attentive friendly waiting staff. Look forward to next visit!

The food never disappoints, even at the busiest times the service is swift. They have a waitress (with blond dip dyed hair) who is incredibly friendly to everyone she serves, I apologise for not knowing her name, she is always smiling and is a gem of an employee.

I've eaten here several times and the food has always been good. The portions are large too, which I like. Unfortunately today, part way through my mushrooms on toast today, I found a long hair in my food
