Wow what a wonderful cafe and bar. Dog friendly too.
Staff welcoming with a huge smile.
Food quality is sublime and presented fit for a king. Roast dinner on a Sunday tasty and filling, Had the neopolitan sundae that was so tasty and enjoyable. All washed down with a sharps cider. This was all for £25.50 per person.
Location is by the bus and train stations so ideal.
You cannot fault this cafe it's 10 out of 10 for me and we be back again. Even a menu for your pooches as well.
Thanks for a real special meal.- Meal type

Picked this cafe for lunch this afternoon pretty much by random; it was open, and close to where we had parked.
Was pleasantly surprised with the quality, particularly the Sunday Roast special, which was excellent. We also tried the ploughman's lunch (a non-traditional, but tasty take on the dish), and a milkshake (we ordered one of the less fancy options, but it was still very good).
Note: Hellys can be quite busy and are very proactive with managing their capacity; do not expect to just wander in and sit down. You may have to wait a few minutes to be seated, even if there appear to be free tables (To my knowledge restaurants do this to help match the number of guests to their actual kitchen capacity; It seems to be working here, once seated our orders were taken quite quickly, and our means were delivered promptly).- Service

I previously ordered the avocado toast for breakfast, and the green sauce drizzled around the plate was absolutely delicious. I really want to know what kind of sauce it was! I left a negative review because I was worried the restaurant wouldn’t see my feedback, but I’ll change it to a 5-star review after you reply🥹🥰🙏yeah you did saw it thank you! could i know the name of sauce please

Came for a quick bite at lunch, just ahead of the main kitchen closing at 15.00. Pleasantly surprised to find a very decent selection of gluten free options, and a wide ranging menu. Orders quickly taken and food arrived in good time. All delicious. Thank you!

Went on a Sunday and they managed to fit us in within 10 minutes of us arriving. Excellent service and great choices. Was surprised that it offered Sunday Dinners, my son ordered the large Sunday dinner and it looked amazing. As I was Gluten Free I was a bit sceptical but I was amazed at the choices offered to me. In the end I only wanted something light so I ordered the toastie and it came with a salad and I have to say it was the best toastie I have ever tasted! I would definitely recommend and I will definitely be returning in the future. Fantastic Staff and very helpful, and the choices of food was impeccable.Owner response

You Made My Day
Arrived late to the district and found that most of the restaurants were closed at 3pm, which was crazily early.
Had no other choice but get seated in this cafe. The only restaurant that close later than the rest. The food was surprisingly tasty. So hot and so fresh. Different style with reasonable price.
Would try other things in the menu next time. It's a place that shouldn't be underestimated.
What a shame. Such a stunning tourist district but most of the restaurants and shops close so early.
Good luck to Hallys Bistro and wish you the best!- Food

Hi Andrew, thank you so much for your great review and 5 stars. We’re sorry to hear your eggs were overdone as we usually pride ourselves on perfect eggs, hopefully next time they’ll be perfect but if not then please do let us know at the time as we’d always replace them without question 😊
