Erol's Cafe

Great breakfast spot, very filling and cheap.Asked to swap black pudding for extra hash brown and they were totally fine with it.Very friendly staff.

Great little cafe. Food is simple, but cheap and tasty. Portions are also relatively generous. It is clean and the staff were friendly. My daughter and I enjoyed our visit.

We both had very good breakfasts, food cooked well and served piping hot

Have visited this cafe multiple times over the past 2 years & i can say amazing service everytime! Everything is reasonably price and the staff are very friendly

Away from home, I couldn't go to my usual haunt, so I gave Erol's a try! After all, breakfast must be had...And so I ordered Breakfast Number 6 - the closest to my usual. Egg, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, hash brown, black pudding, mushrooms and toast, with a cup of tea. No pictures. I was too busy eating.The dining room is surprisingly large for a cafe. This allows it to be much less cramped than many - which is a good thing of course!The staff are very friendly and perfectly happy to accommodate reasonable changes (number 6 was meant to come with bread and butter, not toast). And the speed the food came out was exceptional. Though on that, I think maybe I'd be happy to wait a bit more for certain things - as we'll detail momentarily.On to the most important thing of any cafe review... The food! In short - it was good! I will definitely come here again if in Hatfield. In more long form...Let's start on a high. The toast. Strange one to mention I know. But the toast had a perfect amount of butter. Was nice and warm. It was just great toast.Hash brown - ok so... This was good. Great even. Crispy and hot. Soft inside. But. There was only one. How can you erect a barricade between the beans and the rest of your plate with hash brown singular? You can't is the answer.And the beans. There were... A lot of beans. I personally think a few too many. On a large plate, so they could spread out, they cooled down annoyingly quickly. Thankfully, the plentiful toast portion at least helped by pairing remaining beans after the hash brown was done, with toast.The egg was good! Nice and runny yoke. Only thing I would like is a little bit of crinkle crunchy but on the edges/underneath but that's expecting too much really.The mushrooms... Not bad. These guys absolutely could have benefit from a little longer frying. I would happily wait 5 minutes longer to get some proper caramelisation going on on these. But still, they were not bad mushrooms.The bacon was good! Again could have had a TINY bit more caramelisation going on on the fats, but this was absolutely good bacon. Not over done and really not under done. Any complaint is simply me being picky and personal taste.The sausage was yummy. It was a good sausage. Perfectly cooked. Good flavour. Yea. Nothing wrong with that sausage.Finally the real star of the show. The black pudding. This was amazing. A good slice, perfect thickness. The outside had a satisfying crunch, that for a moment had me worried it might be quite over done... But no. Inside was a lovely soft texture. It was perfect. I will take no arguments on this.I very much enjoyed my meal at Erol's. Thanks for a good Sunday morning breakfast my peeps who work there!

Best breakfast in ages, served with a smile and great service and price. Had scrambled eggs on toast with tomatoes, lovely and hot, plentiful, cooked perfectly and thoroughly enjoyed. Latte was fab too. Thank you we will be back.

I went with my sister, and my nephew and his partner, I treated us all to a meal, it was very nice
