Who we are — Corner Café, Par Market

who's behind the counter

The Famous Café In The Corner

The Corner Café servery, with the full menu boards along the wall and Home of the Sunday Roast signs hanging above the counter — The whole lot, up on the wall where you can see it.

There's no concept here and no small plates. There's a hot cabinet full of pasties and pies, a fryer that's been on since nine, and a kitchen that will happily rebuild any plate on the menu around what you actually fancy eating.

WhereStall 6, over on the far side of the market — not in the food hall.
PortionsChild's and senior portions at one end, the 13-item Belly Buster at the other.
OrderingGrab a table, note the number, then order and pay at the counter.
AllergiesTell us before you order and we'll talk you through it.
PricesKept where locals can afford them. Tea is £1.50 and we'd like to keep it that way.

Child's and senior portions at one end, the Belly Buster at the other — and a table for whoever walks in. That's the whole idea.

plenty of room

Big tables, so bring everyone

It's a proper sit-down seating area, not a couple of stools by the window — long tables built for families, market regulars and anyone who's just done a lap of a hundred stalls and needs to put their bags down.

Families and market regulars sitting at the long wooden tables in the Corner Café, with the menu board on the wall behind them — Room for the whole family.

The full width of the Corner Café, with tables on both sides of the servery and the roast counter running along it, under the Sunday roast price banner — The whole corner — tables either side of the counter.

The Corner Café chilled cabinet, with scones set out with jam and clotted cream, doughnuts, a custard tart, and bowls of grated cheese, coleslaw and salad — And scones and cream teas, to finish.
