THE 30 BEST Restaurants in Stockton-on-Tees
I'm still sat at my table after eating a fantastic breakfast and just had to share how good it really was. Everything cooked perfectly and the fresh coffee finished it off perfectly. At only 4.75 for a small breakfast which included everything you'd expect, including hash brown & black pudding, it's brilliant value for money.
