"Cake lovely, smallish portion. Cappuccino not nice at £3.50 a cup expected better, left unpleasant taste"
Naively assumed that a ‘traditional’ station cafe might be able to present a decent breakfast… along the lines of similar establishments around the country. Very poor quality sausage lacking any sort of meaty flavour, lukewarm and with a nasty soft texture. I could well believe it was a veggie version but no suggestion anywhere that this was the case. Flabby bacon, hash brown tasted of old cooking oil as did the fried bread. A nice idea… but using up the crusts from the loaf is a bit of a cheat as they go hard. Also only half a slice of fried bread… seems a bit miserly. Egg was the best bit… clearly just cooked whereas the rest of the food looked and tasted as though it had been hanging arou...
Unfortunately we arrived just in time to see our train, with our friends on board, departing. We went in and had a really warm welcome, and a nice cup of coffee. We ere welcomed to stay until our friends caught up with us.Our friends eventually came and we had lunch together. The staff were again very helpful. There was a good choice of sandwiches, baguettes, warm food and so on. The service could have been a little quicker, but we were in no real hurry. It turned into a most enjoyable time together.Our thanks to the staff.
Tried to order a assam tea that took 4 attempts. Also ordered a cheeseburger and chips. Burger arrived at 13:18 but no chips after the second time asking staff. The chips arrived at 13:54. Reason given was that they had new staff, who started that day. But why would you have new staff members operating a till and taking orders with no-one with them. The answer to that is no-one who is a good manager.
This has to be the worst post-dog walk treat for a Sunday morning. The bacon bap I received was old, cold, dry, and stingy for £4.90. If I had seen it before getting home, I would have returned it and asked why it is acceptable to serve this to paying customers. This does not seem financially sustainable. Word of mouth spreads quickly.

Situated in Toddington station, the cafè has lots of tables and space and is very well organised. We did not wait long for our food and it was really nice and tasty, perfect in between trains. Staff was very helpful and did their best. I believe is generally open to the public too so it is definetively recommended
Enjoyed a lovely HOT pot of tea for 2 no skimping on tea bags so a decent cuppa accompanied by a good slice of delicious coffee and walnut cake and a generous cheese and pickle roll 2 happy customers enjoyed our pit stop between our steam train journeys to/from Cheltenham a great atmosphere and experience
I arrived at this restaurant with a coach tour group after visiting Cheltenham and enjoying an afternoon train ride. We had booked afternoon tea, but unfortunately, I was not impressed. The sandwiches were very dry, and the tea was not hot enough. I left feeling disappointed.
I have to agree with Kathleen, we visited yesterday. The brown bread sandwiches were quite dry, but the white bread ones were not too bad. Our teas were very weak and light in color. Overall, it's a nice little cafe located at Toddington train station.

Great breakfast baps before setting off on the steam train! Friendly and efficient service. Clean and well decorated in keeping with the location.
