Popped in for breakfast today. Top quality ingredients in the full English and they have the best decaff coffee Lavazza none of your jar stuff here. Frankie has extra special qualities mind-reading and I'm sure she can lipread too. Very friendly atmosphere and portions good. Was full up but took some lovely cake home for afternoon treats. Highly recommend top quality breakfast.

Awesome little cafe in Hatfield Peverel, great coffee and breakfasts, but the absolute star of the show is cakes and brownies. These things are amazing, I've been several times and always end up taking a couple away. Great food, friendly service, free parking and even a little playground in the back for kids if you need!

Went to Carrie’s for breakfast and cake. The sausage sandwich was amazing, the bread was so fresh and the sausages were really flavoursome. I followed this with a Bruce cake, no words will do this justice! The sponge was moist the ganache was amazing, honestly one of the best chocolate cakes I’ve ever had. It was so good that I had to get more cakes to take home. The staff were friendly and the place was clean and decorated lovely.
