Located in Friar Gate Studios, Derby. It's a near miss - in fact, we drove past it twice before we had the 'AHA - IT'S THERE' moment! *Caps necessary as if I remember rightly, I let out a rather loud squeal upon our discovery... Aside from it's high-rankings, awards and even décor - What I loved most about the Bean Caffe is the fact it's owned and managed by mother and daughter - Sarah and Liv. They have perfected the art of ALL things breakfast (or brunch in my case) and offer a range of favourites from Eggs Benedict to Toasted Banana Sandwiches. I opted for the 'Smashed Avocado': Toasted Sourdough topped with avocado, poached eggs and a shake of hot Sriracha Sauce. SO delicious and for just £5.50 an absolute bargain.

The decor is fantastic, relaxing, and quaint, but more importantly, the food is superb. Everything we tried, from the milkshakes to the desserts, were absolutely finger-licking good. The quality was simply superb. This place is worth going out of one's way to visit. If you're looking for a fantastic lunch, it's where it's at. One note, the place tends to be busy, so it can be a bit of a wait for the food or for the staff, but the food is worth the wait.

And this time I didn't get any flipping food AGAIN, more's the pity (think next time Em, THINK), but I swear, on a Saturday around midday, it was like entering a library. Not for lack of custom, there were people dotted around, but they were all alone, reading or laptopping, and everything - was - silent. My companion and I found ourselves speaking in whispers while we awaited our order. Perhaps it was study day. This particular review is based on two items, one of which I didn't experience. Or at least experienced by default thanks to an occasional satisfied food noise and I myself being fed delicious morsels of sundried tomato from the ciabatta which encased... you guessed it... a meat sandwich. Salt-beef and gherkin to be exact. As you know I don't eat meat, but heck, that bread seemed awesome from the tomatoes I snaffled and my flat-hunting companion was all kinds of happy. Now, we come to the other thing. Thing two. The coffee. The oozing black nectar of the jittery gods. This was my area. I have to say, Engine House, bravo. If you can give me an early lunchtime caffeine high amidst me going back and forth between Deansgate, Castlefield and this little edge of the Oxford Road Corridor no one else sees taking in apartment buildings and living dimensions and kitchen units and such on very little sleep, then I commend you. And considering to eat that sandwich at the table would have cost a fiver alone, to take out, that and the coffee came to £4.50. Takeaway it is! Bonus points for having Anthony Worrall Thompson strawberry handsoap in the bathroom. Did you know such stuff existed? I didn't! Check my photo. It's for reals.

We enjoyed the New Mexico pancake, which I'd definitely recommend - great flavours and very filling. On my second visit, we were seated immediately, and decided what to order within 30 seconds. Unfortunately no one came to take our order, and we had trouble flagging down a staff member due to the position of our table behind a partition wall. Eventually, a lovely staff member named Lynne came over, advised she'd seen us sit down a while ago and was sorry that we hadn't been served. She immediately told us our meal would be free of charge, and continued to serve us very quickly for the rest of our visit. I had the Cookie Monster pancake, which was delicious but, again, very filling - I'll likely have the smaller portion next time. I would always recommend The Pancake House, and will take advantage of their great food every time I visit Center Parcs.
