    A nice breakfast. I been here twice and the food quality was exactly what I looking for. A little bit noisy and busy but doesn't affect me.

    Great place for a breakfast, and probably more. More a traditional cafe, nothing fancy but neither was the bill! Good value, food and service. Usually very busy so that says a lot in its favour.

    Great price, good food, and a very tasty coffee! Pretty busy so a long wait to be served, queued out the door and in the rain, but didn't take too long for food to arrive once order was placed.

    Proper old school workers style cafe that appeals to all sorts of people. A cracking feast of food cooked fresh and great value, I've only ever had the breakfast but the daily lunches on the board are very tempting.

    Great prices and food. Staff were great and service is prompt. Never mind the queue to enter & order, it’s quicker than it looks and enjoy the view of the lake. Has a genuine American diner feel to it.

  • 4/5 Sophiá 4 months ago on Google
    Lovely food, well portioned and very friendly staff, highly recommend, has a great view of the lake and is a great fishing spot, sometimes it gets really busy even the winter when they open first thing even on a Sunday we're queuing upwards of 20+ mins for a table!

  • 5/5 Darren L. 11 months ago on Google
    Great value for money. Good service too. Food excellent.

  • 5/5 patricia h. 11 months ago on Google
    Lovely place beautiful views of the lakes. Food is excellent and good quality. Sausages to die for get orange juice with it as well. Service good and quick. Recommend to everyone. Does get very busy in the mornings popular with workmen. Definitely worth a visit.

    This cafe is extremely busy, as long as you don't mind waiting in a queue for a table then I would definitely recommend here. We both had a fry up which was delicious.

  • 3/5 John P. 1 year ago on Google
    Had been meaning to try this place for a long time. Food OK, although not our type of menu, but lots of happy people eating.

  • 5/5 Oliver F. 8 months ago on Google
    Proper greasy spoon with a superb breakfast and a lovely setting.

  • 5/5 David B. 8 months ago on Google
    Though the food and service were both good, I’d say it’s more about the location, on a summers day you can enjoy food and beverages while overlooking the lake.

  • 5/5 Joe B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food at a reasonable price, fantastic views across the lake. Would definitely recommend.

  • 5/5 Chris D. 1 year ago on Google

    Nice food, good prices, lovely views. What else do you need? Plenty of parking and good facilities too.

  • 5/5 John C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great quality food at a very reasonable price. The Diner was understandably full with queuing customers. Staff did a great job keeping things flowing.

    Best breakfest in Ipswich. Well worth the drive. Owner is super friendly. Staff are always helpful and the food is amazing. The lake veiws while eating are second to none. Well worth a drive

  • 4/5 Steve M. 1 year ago on Google
    Not bad, nice views and breakfast is good. Nothing gastro just a good English breakfast. Bit sad seeing geese with broken wings but not their fault. Watch out for wasps too!

  • 5/5 Peter S. 3 years ago on Google
    What a lovely cafe. We were temperature tested and given hand sanitizer on arrival. The full English breakfast was nothing less than perfection in a plate. The view from outside looking over the lake was tranquility itself.

  • 5/5 Jonathan L. 1 year ago on Google
    They do a fantastic breakfast at a reasonable price. Located next to a large lake full of big fish on the water park complex. Super clean restaurant and friendly staff this establishment is always busy which may mean a short wait for a table, but is an indication of popularity and quality of the waterfront diner.

  • 5/5 CHELSEA L. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food every time quality service food . Views out looking at the lake. 10/10 Tomato sauce optional of course.
