Great little cafe. Your not gonna get smashed avocado and poached eggs on toast but for £7 you will get a decent fry up and a mug of tea and coffee and toast.

We had a few nights in Scarborough and found Fairways close to the apartment we had booked. We had breakfast here each morning. The decor is a little dated but the food is fine. Good quality and plenty of it. We had the Special breakfast with 2 of everything, thick toast and a brew all for £5:50. It was enough to keep us going all day. As I said , don’t walk past because of the decor , you get good food and it is a fraction of the cost of what other places charge. Hope you enjoy as much as we did, you won’t leave hungry.

Lovely traditional cafe. Fast polite service. Basic menu that's well done. Cash only. Go to this place! It doesn't look great from the outside but it's the food that counts and it's worth it.

Good old fashioned greasy spoon. The decor is dated, but the cooked breakfasts taste great and are good value. Well worth a visit if you want a tasty breakfast at a good price. Cash only.
