'Sunday, Monday, Happy Days... Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days... Thursday, Friday, Happy Days... The weekend comes, My cycle hums, Ready to race to you...'
Yesterdays only opened a few weeks ago and already it is a buzzing, packed out Americana styled 50's & 60's cafe on a side street in Polesworth. There are American state number plates bordered around the ceiling, a giant jukebox blasting out Johnny Cash and an aroma of hot dogs I can still smell.
The menu is made up of American actor and actress named burgers, such as the Marilyn Monroe or the Clint Eastwood and 8inch hot dogs known as the Paul Newman and Marlene Dietrich. They also offer milkshakes, with a list of flavours as long as your arm. You name the chocolate bar, fruit or sweets you want and they'll have it and transform it into an ice-creamed mix up dream. I had the Marlon Brando burger - a juicy chicken burger with cheese and salad and a Ferrero Rocher milkshake. The burger was good and though the milkshake didn't look like anything special it tasted amazing.
The only downside to Yesterdays is the size of the place. As it is so small there can't be more than 5 people in the queue before it leads out of the door. They did seem overwhelmed being in such demand - though it was a Saturday afternoon - I only wish the service was up to an American standard.
