terry's cafe

came recently and was served by a moody and ignorant host. she was too busy messing around with staff than wondering whether we needed serving. 

just read other reviews and one customer is right - the owner doesn’t want to hear constructive feedback. whether you’ve been in business 1 or 35 years is of no consequence. people give up their precious time and cash to eat somewhere where they will feel welcome. 

it feels good to get value for time and money as opposed to moodiness, ignorance and lazy service.  

so please - take on board those customers who take the time to write a review and chat with your team who are not pulling their socks up. 
*** the owner wrote back to another customer review saying that they can “assess” whether they want to come back, which is fair enough. but it’s their loss. not the customer’s. 

the food is great. but if you’re looking for consistent, welcoming customer service - i’d give terry’s café a miss.

terry'scafeis one of my favourite places for breakfast. in my last visit i had ordered for a buck rarebit and it was very tasty and filling. the various sandwiches from the menu is also a must have the i totally recommend this place. i am definitely going to visit this place for more.

greatcafefor a fry up, one of my favourite places to have breakfast whenever i am in the area. lunch is quite good as well, particularly the sausage, mash and onions on fridays.

terry'scafelives up to the hype. great smallcafewith seating for around 20. get here early cause it will get busy fast. ordered the works for about £10 and it comes with everything you would ever need and more. sausage. bacon. black pudding. beans and mushrooms. bubbles and squeak. eggs. come get a great breakfast but make sure you get here before 1145 am

terry's is quality. although a bit of a strange one. limited opening hours give an air of exclusivity to acafethat looks like it has been on great suffolk street for centuries (as opposed to the few decades it has been there). the cosy old fashioned interior could easily just be fashionable decoration, but is instead fully authentic - the authenticity further reflected in simple, but bang on qualitycafefood. a straight forward cup of coffee for a quid, and a thick white bread sandwich that feels as homemade as they get.
(the special blt was top notch and hits the spot beautifully for 5£)
it's highly rated so expect it to be busy, but terry's is a perfect lunch spot. you're a lucky lucky man if it is your ~regular~.

thecafeis more suitable for breakfast than lunch. the guy running the place is very entertaining. he comes at your table cracks a joke and that is a good start to your mornings. they place offers daily specials that are a good value for money. the view from thecafeis also very good.

this one is an authentic britishcafeand there are very few in london so according to me this place is a must visit.
the food is always fresh and portions are generous too.
the ambiance is also very good , you will feel like you are again living in 40s.
if you are planning on visiting here i am sure you will have truly awesome experience.

i went their on a friends birthday, it was his favorite place. thiscafeis run by a family and they are famous for serving good variety of breakfast options. the restaurant was not fully occupied so we enjoyed our time there. they were serving a variety of pies all served with mash and vegetables on the side.

i visited thiscafeon saturday and i haven't stopped telling people about it since. the quality of the food really surprised me and with the tea, it's a bargain. i absolutely loved the decor of the place and with the music, it really felt like we had stepped back in time. me and my friend really saying want to go back and i hope it won't be long. i highly recommend this place. i wish it was open in the evenings.

i have now become a regular visitor at thiscafe,after a very good experience here.
as far as the decor of thecafeis concerned , it is your regular englishcafewith seating arrangement both inside the area and outdoors too. the ambiance to is pretty rich with cool music playing in the background.
the menu has a good range of typical english dishes which are priced appropriately.
the food was of a good standard and the presentation excellent too.i recommend trying the coffee here which is different and tasty than other such places.
definitely drop in , it is quite great!

the place is much suitable for breakfast. even my dog likes the place. we often come here to have bread and butter and no points for guessing, it is delicious. the atmosphere is very calm and friendly. they offer free sausages at thecafewhich is amazing. you can get decent alcohol in the morning too here.

this place seemed a very posh affair from its interiors. i thought it will be quite expensive but thankfully it was not. this is a main streamcafeserving good food with not very extensive selections in their menu. there was soothing music playing in the background. although still the prices were above standard for the portion size that we got.

i came back to terry's after a disappointing previous visit and i must say they have improved dramatically. i forgive all the mistakes they committed the previous time. the lunch was great! the food was amazing and this is definitely the bestcafeof all of those i have been to around london and the south east. thank you for the very pleasant meal!

i have been a regular customer to terry's since decades and the food is incredibly amazing. some of my favorites include mince stew and some really amazing stew. thecafeuses the best ingredients and cooks them perfectly.
terry was an absolute legend and was one of the best chefs in london.

in my opinion a greatcafewith its own distinct vibe in the heart of the city. the service here is exceptional. the food is outstanding and mouthwatering, to say the least. the ambiance of this place is very enjoyable and pleasant. eating here was an absolute pleasure and an experience of its own.
