Blake Head Vegetarian Cafe, The

Booklovers are likely to find solace with like-minded folks as The Blake Head is something of a treasure trove of books at prices that are sure to keep you adding several to the cart. Then follow on with a stopover at the vegetarian café at the rear, a comfortable spot for an invigorating breakfast, a light lunch or just a cup of coffee.

In the morning rev up your body engine with a poached free range egg served with a generous helping of baked beans on toast, or a mixed grill of two vegetarian sausages, fried free range egg, sautéed mushrooms, tomatoes, baked beans and toast for those with a robust appetite. A Mediterranean pie, quiche of the day, Welsh rarebit or open sandwiches and savoury wraps to satisfy those midday hunger pangs, perhaps?

The drinks list at The Blake Head Vegetarian Café is assembled with care, embracing some refreshing organic wines, ale and lager.
