Yum Yum is a classic British cafe in which you can enjoy freshly cooked meals. You can pop in for breakfast and enjoy a full English or grab a delicious handmade sandwich for lunch.

Once a gem, now going quickly down hill!
Prices have been masively raised and potions have shrunk!
Recently ordered a lasagne with salad- the salad comprised of one leaf, one slice of tomato and one slice of cucumber- not impessed, and not the 'Deli' standard it used to be! This 6 month ago would have also included garlic bread, and the salad much more inspiring! Also would have cost £4 max, now at least £4.50!
This is just one example, but I could carry on about many a yumyum meal.
Also the woman who I assume is the boss does not seem to care less about customer loyalty, once they had no lettuce on the shelves, so she offered me a salad box full, she then shamelessly charged me the price of a salad box around £3, for what was less than a bag!
(must say though the rest of the staff are lovely, and always provide a bit of friendly banter- they are the reason for the 2nd star!)
Now I just feel its convenient if I really have to go, but won't really eat there out of choice.
The food is of a good standard, I just dont feel like I am getting value for money or customer loyalty.

Overpriced with unfriendly staff. It felt like I was doing them a favour spending my own money.
It could be so much better with the right customer service.

The idea behind Yum Yum is excellent - if it was only three times the size. Just try actually shopping in here at 10am on a Sunday morning (one of those times when you actually need and use a convenience store), and it is nigh on impossible to get to any shelves past all those people that are eating - packed in right next to the area of the shop that contains all the produce. Since Simpson's (my, how I miss it) closed, this is my closest amenity, and as such I would quite like to be able to make it to a shelf without having to squeeze between 20 people having their breakfast - and feeling like I am being rude for trying to use this shop...as an actual shop.

Popped in for a coffee and ended up having Sunday roast. Lovely relaxed informal atmosphere. No pressure to buy or move on. Really friendly staff happy to help. Next time will go for breakfast looks to good to miss. Roll on next Sunday

nice food, had a really nice time here with family, made to feel bvery welcome which is always nice!

Try the casserole its a lot better than my mum used to make.
