“We have been staying at Burgate lodge. We decided. To venture into Fording bridge .Fantastic breakfast for three and dog friendly so our Bella enjoyed a sneaky bit of sausage under the table. Brilliant Pork sausage and Bacon. Well recommended.Thank you.”

“Haven't been in for a while but the cafe has been spruced up to be a very pleasant place for breakfast or a light lunch”
“So, my Husband and I visited Belinda's today (10th October 2025) for breakfast. What a lovely experience! Smiles upon entering, lovely clean and friendly bakery come café. We were able to order any combination of a fabulous array of breakfast items, and it was no trouble when we asked if our eggs could be poached ... they were lovely. The staff were fabulous, one of the nicest breakfast experiences we have had. We are on holiday but are definitely going back again before we go home. Thank you Belinda's we had a great morning. Tania and Kevin Well, we did go back again, TWICE! Today's 3rd visit (20th October 2025) we had a late brekky and again it was superb. My choice this time was Bacon, Halloumi, Avocado, Grilled Tomato and two Fried ggs to die for! The staff at Belinda's are so welcoming it's like eating at a friend's house. What a wonderful way to spend a cold and drizzly Autumn morning, the grey sky was soon forgotten and our mood was lifted ... just like our eggs ... sunny side up! 🍳”

“Great little old school bakery. We visited the bakery whilst on holiday this week and enjoyed some freshly made sandwiches, meat and potatoe pies and some lovely pastries which were all very delicious 😋. The ladies working here were very helpful and polite. They helped us choose as there was so much to look at. Forget Costa go visit a real bakery 👍”

“Lovely cafe with lovely staff! Have stopped by to have a coffee a couple of times. Really nice sweet pastries and cakes and other bits too, the selection is amazing. It's a shame there is no toilet for customers to use, and that there are only four tables to use at the moment, but understandable during covid-times.”
