The Good Honest Food Company - Coventry

Good food, but got order wrong offered to swap but when your tucking into a full English you don't wanna wait for your toast, got had over asked for 2 rounds of toast charged for 4 as when you ask for 2 you get 4 ?? Some roudy loud music blairing away impression genre music was for staff not customers asked to put down which they did but said no one else has complained ...but people don't .....

Went for lunch to The Village Cafe after a trip to Allesley Parkk with our granddaughter. We had an all day breakfast which was excellent, all item nice and hot. Cafe was very clean, airy and modern and the service was superb. Looking forward to my next visit.

As I am currently on a diet, I am very picky with what I choose when it comes to breaking it on any particular day. After a series of difficult events during the morning, I decided it was one of those times to treat myself. When I noticed on the Specials board Baconm, Brie Mushroom Melt , I got excited. This is one of my favourite sanwiches. So I ordered it minus the mushrooms. Wasn 't the cheapest at £5.85 either. At that price, I was expecting something special. What I got would be better descibed as a Brie melt. After a few puzzled bites I opened the thing up to wonder why I wasn 't tasting any bacon. What greeted me was a few meager strips of cut bacon amonst a sea of melted brie....why is it cut? Surely you wern 't trying to make 1 rasher of bacon cover an entire panini? OK, the meal included a packet of crisps, what I wasn 't really after but I wasn 't told it was available without the crisps as an option, so hey ho, just went ahead. Sooooo exspensive for such poor quality item.

The cafe serves nice cakes and looks great inside. Service is quite slow. Not great for small children. Had to wait over 10 minutes for a high chair and when it came it was filthy. The waitress gave it a quick wipe with a tea towel, not very sanitary. Might just be a one off so will try it out again.

The consistent quality of the food, the friendly ambience, value for money and excellent service have always been the hallmark of this highly recommended venue. It’s not a large establishment but during the restrictions brought about by COVID some considerable internal upgrading has been taking place. All of the previously mentioned attributes are still very much in evidence but the physical changes have provided a more space-efficient and comfortable environment. The establishment seems to have been renamed ‘The Village Cafe’ but the experience of the delight of a visit to ‘Good Honest Food’ remains and, indeed, has been enhanced, just when I thought that things could not get any better! Well done!!!
