  2. Of the MCN options the only ones I am familiar with are the Ace, Bike Shed, Loomies, Rykas, and Super Sausage. Of those, Bike Shed is of far superior quality. IMHO

  7. Would be well off my list. Over priced, terrible food, takes for ever even just for a coffee.

    You must have done the riders cafe too...that was in the list (Harry’s cafe??)

  12. Yes. And they can tart it up but it wasn’t that different, except the coffee was even more expensive

  16. Maybe worth a visit to look at what's parked in the car park but I would not eat there

    Food is dire

    Smells of an open sewer around the back

    Super Sausage is just the other side of Towcester

    I am surprised that Jacks Hill is still in business

  17. The Ace cafe food is not value for money, cold, they don't heat the plates, especially close to opening time.
    Once up and running the chilli, cheese and chips is acceptable.

    I've never liked tea made with a steamer.... water should be off the boil and not 110°C!

    Don't look too closely at the vinegar.
    It contains dead flies..... loads of them.
    I complained on each and every visit. The simply take them off the table, then put them back after you leave.
    Vinegar should be clear, not cloudy with wings and legs.

    I did wonder how the insects managed to just get their wings and legs in....
    then I remembered the chemical formula for Vinegar..... now I feel very sick.
