Good, no nonsense food from a traditional breakfast bar/grill. Value for money menu geared towards breakfast items and a takeaway menu that is competitively priced. The site is situated near an industrial complex public carpark, easily accessible from the main road, plenty of space which leads towards the entrance. The site is next to a hand car wash, which leads to the entrance becoming obscured at peak times, the nearby water source causing a little mess. Inside, the cafe is a little dated with the traditional tables found in cafes nationwide, can also be a little gloomy during late hours. Once inside and at the service desk, the staff are outstanding, quick to take orders but slower to prepare as all the food is cooked on demand, fresh every time. The kitchen staff are often the serving staff as there seems to be either one or two people on duty at a time. Personable, always smiling and interacting with the customers, the atmosphere is always happy and light, it truly makes the dining experience here the reason to keep coming back. Cleanliness of the cafe is average, sometime slightly below in peak times, the kitchen appears operationally clean and ready for service. No visible dirt is seen, but as is the nature of the type of cafe, the restaurant smells of grease, owing to the fact that a majority of the menu is cooked on demand in the style of the traditional English Breakfast. I enjoy going here as it does what it says on the tin; honest, cheap and voluminous food prepared when you want it, how you want it and a bit of banter while you wait. Good stuff

A truly excellent cafe. I've not missed a Springwood large as my Saturday morning sustenance in over 2 years (bar the times at Xmas when he's closed). Great owner and staff, great prices and great food!

I've had far too many breakfasts for my own good, the Springwood Grill definitely does a good one! I've been here while getting some tyres changed. Now I need to think up a new excuse to come back.

I have just ordered breakfast for collection for my colleagues at work, the phone was answered promptly and I ordered a sausage baguette with various other items. The baguetter was fresh bread with a perfect amount of butter and tomato ketchup, I would definitely order from here again and recommend to anyone who is thinking about ordering from here! Great stuff!
