Went to Fields Cafe in Birchington for Sunday dinner. It’s best to book as we did. The food was delicious, hot and the portion sizes are generous. The staff are really friendly and are happy to accommodate any food requirements. We had 2 vegetarian roast dinners and one chicken roast. The place is clean and tidy and the service is excellent. So good that we booked for next Sunday. The prices are very reasonable as well. If you want a tasty Sunday roast dinner then you’d do well to try Fields.

Calm cafe atmosphere, festive for the holiday (Easter) great selection of cakes, friendly staff, free WiFi, decent coffee with a nice selection of syrups. I love this local cafe (I'm assuming it's a family run business), I'd definitely visit again. Only thing I can think of for constructive criticism, is that there was a few grains of ground coffee at the bottom of my latte, but that's me looking for things to improve on as I know it can happen. 10/10 visit
