This Cafe is an absolute gem. Clean & tidy with a really good selection of foods on the menu. I had the large breakfast which I only just managed to finish and my pal had jacket spud with cheese and beans which was so lovely and fluffy with generous toppings and a really nice fresh salad on the side. Great portions with great service. Thank you

Prior to my visit to Atherstone I was informed that a few new Cafe's had opened in the Town so I decided that I would try both to see which one I would choose to have Breakfast at for the rest of my Stay. Cafe Resta won hands down in all area's! If you are visiting Atherstone and wondering where to eat then do yourself a favour and give Cafe Resta a visit....you will be glad you did....

Been coming here for two years now and really enjoy the breakfast baguettes. I always phone ahead and collect my order soon after and we're always happy. I say we cause I do the breakfast run at work and normally collect up to 8 sandwiches. Good food and the girls are always welcoming
