Popped in for an impromptu lunch on a Friday in June 2024. I had heard great things about the variety of vegan cakes on offer, so thought we'd try it as we were passing. Unfortunately, as was explained to us, because we were late the vegan cakes had sold out But, whilst there wasn't anything explicitly vegan on the menu, they could adapt some of the items for us. So we had a gorgeous toasted salad styled baguette with balsamic glaze with side salad. The staff were extremely friendly & welcoming &, as stated, were very willing to adjust food options to our dietary requirements. The cafe is nicely decorated out in a relaxed tredy style & it is also larger than you first think as there is sitting both above & below the ground floor that you walk into off the high street. Take aways are possible, & certainly many took cakes away with them in cardboard boxes. The atmosphere is friendly & relaxed, it has WiFi should you need to have a working lunch, etc. It is a highly recommended place to pop into whether eating in or take away.

Came today and had a Frappuccino, cappuccino, cheese and onion toastie and a lemon meringue tart! The food and drinks were gorgeous - the staff was so so lovely - they came and said hello to our dogs after they’d finished cleaning up at the end of the day. I was with my family and stayed there a while just because the atmosphere was good.

What a cute little place. Great value and great quality cafe offerings! Stopped in for a takeaway as there was nothing at the train station. I ordered a club sandwich without bacon. I fully expected a tin foil wrapped toastie but instead recieved a lovely box full of a double decker toastie, with extra chicken to account for no bacon, coleslaw, salad and crisps. Delicious! Great decaff flat white (not all decaff is good) and the most delicious brownie (photographed from my train!).

Small place in close quarters with other diners, making it quite noisy. Plenty of seating on the ground floor with more downstairs. The decor creates an ambiance with a cosy atmosphere. Staff very friendly, smiley and happy to help with great table service. About a 30 minute wait for the food. I got the Barbeque Boston Butt (Special) - pulled pork, chorizo, melted cheese on toasted sourdough bread with a side of salad, coleslaw and crisps. A handful of crisps on the side. Small, standard salad with a drizzle of dressing and a smattering of coleslaw. The main focus is clearly the ‘Butt', which tasted great! The pork was well flavoured with the bbq sauce and the cheese well melted. The chorizo was a good addition flavour-wise, but meant that the toppings all easily slid off the toasted sourdough. I also had a cup of tea and cake. The tea was very good, a decent sized cup and a Speculoos biscuit on the side. The carrot cake was very moist, well spiced and full of walnuts. A light, creamy, very complimentary icing, topped with more walnuts. Though I did find the cake fell apart a little too easily, so I had to chase a lot of it around my plate. Overall, a very good place for a tasty lunch.

Wow! I’ve been coming to Mama J’s for the past year or two to enjoy the odd cup of coffee but today I decided to go for lunch and try some of the food out. Firstly, I discovered a new part of the cafe which has recently been renovated at the back of the building in a small courtyard but very well furnished. The space is beautiful and very peaceful. The food was impeccable and the quality of the ingredients was very impressive. I ordered a BOB from the special menu and it was to die for. Value for money and I would definitely have food there again. If I could give 6 stars I would. Thank you :)
