Greedies in Hounslow

Really busy. Took a while for food to come. Signage needed for extra seating at the back

I have been recommended that place for few people in the past, but after read all the reviews, I decided to go Richmond close to the river for breakfast, as price ways is the same but more enjoyable views then seating by the road.

Completely lost its touch.This place was unbeatable a couple of years ago but the service & quality of food has plummeted whilst the cost has risen. Was always pricey here but after eating a meal you left happy. Not any more.My 3 egg omelette (with ham and cheese) with chips and salad for £9.50 came out without salad. The cheese in the omelette was almost invisible. It used to ooze out of the sides and the omelette was always stacked with filling… this was dry and almost flat, The minute it landed on the table I knew it wasn’t the same, absolutely nothing like the way it was just a few months ago.I asked for the salad. A side of salad came out eventually with literally a tea spoon of the dressing it comes with, so that was dry too.Asked for a refund, got it, but even that was 50p short.Gutted as this was my favourite. Completely different place now. Won’t be coming back. 😢

30-40 min to wait for breakfast. Very slow service. Quality is ok but not the best. Very expensive. Set menu is including one slice of toast which not enough for the breakfast at all. No chance to order more!Not going back .

5 of us visited and the food was what you'd expect from a cafe; good stuff, simple and tasty. Unfortunately the price and service just isn't value for money and we agreed we won't be going back.Checked the menu on their website to save time but prices on the chalk menu board were all higher. If you're paying £8.50 for a breakfast you at least expect flexibility but they DO NOT like requests at all. This is even written on the set menu to be fair but I've never been in a cafe (and I've been in a lot) that employ that stance and rudely stand by it.A tea/coffee comes with set meals. 1 of the group doesn't drink tea/coffee so politely asked for a juice instead. The snapped response was, "That's £2.75 more". Canned drink instead? "1.50". He paid the extra and they didn't even chuck the free tea on the table.Note - unlike most cafes, a latte is not included in the 'free coffee'. 1 of our group assumed it was until he was charged extra with no explanation.Another of the group had to pay an extra £1 to have eggs scrambled instead of fried. You'd think the cook would at least scramble the eggs. Nope, just a gelatinous blob of powdered egg slapped on the plate to remind you of school dinners circa 1993.£9.50 and ya wouldn't scramble eggs?!?Tip... order things individually to save money!Poached eggs are £1.20 eachToast is £1.00Want 2 poached eggs on toast?That's £4.00 on the menu so save £0.60 by asking for it separately.We weren't brave enough to test this theory and I see a tense staredown if ya pointed out the loophole and tried it.The place is clean, well laid out and easy to park near. The food is what it is. For us the cost, inflexible approach and unfriendly staff just made it a rubbish experience.

Brilliant place offering all types of grub to suit the pallet! Around lunchtime can get busy, toilet freezing as backs on to kitchen and I think they like to air it out! Conservatory nice to sit in, kids 4 item breakfast good size for a diet portion for an adult, eggs Royal lovely as was avocado and poached eggs on toast! Staff lovely and efficient. Could do with menus with full options available on instead of just on the boards though!

Well today was a disaster. Queued for 15 minutes (behind only 10 people) and then waited a further 30 for food. 45 minutes later and the parking meter expiring I had to put a further £6.40 in the meter (the lowest fee the meter would allow). Food itself is okay although the scrambled eggs is more of microwave job. Its okay here but definately not as good as it used to be. Moving toward being more greasy spoon with premium pricing.

Nice local cafe! Food portions are huge so not complaints there! The eggs Benedict is what has me coming back time and time again.

What an amazing cafe. So much choice for everyone and the food was superb, all cooked to order.

We went there for brunch on Sunday. As we are not local decided to follow our friends recommendation for a brunch place in Isleworth.All together for eggs royal, ‘world cup’ breakfast, two coffees and one glass of orange juice we have paid over £28. The price wouldn’t have been too bad if the food was delicious, but... my eggs royal were hard boiled (see photos), by boyfriend’s most expensive full English was without beans (they said were were supposed to choose either beans or tomato but nobody asked us when ordering!) When we asked about the beans the lady didn’t even offer them at extra price or apologized. We also asked for well done scrambled eggs but they came quite runny.The place looked a bit dirty and I think they need more staff as they clearly were too busy to clean after the customers leave.I give them 2 stars for great freshly squeezed orange juice - it was delicious.
