(In case you were wondering, the Cornish style is to spread the jam first then cream. At this point, Dan saids "Just turn the scone upside down then...")
The other day we found this lovely little cafe just opposite the big Tesco in Hove. Mind you, its windows are quite dark and hard to look inside, if you are focused on the big supermarket its easy to miss the cafe. Now everyone knows that its a silly thing to do, going to a supermarket on an empty stomach. So I salute the cafe owners for picking the best location for their cakes heaven. There were easily ten different cakes to choose from (around £3 a piece) and many more cup cakes lying about. We saw a tag on top of the scones saying "Cream tea for two with a pot of tea £4.50". When the waitress came back with four warm scones, a honey pot of homemade strawberry jam, a generous cup of clotted cream and a pot of English tea, we thought "Bargain!" but of course, it turned out that the price was per head.
Another "feature" is their collection of vintage cups, saucers butter knifes with fainted yellow colour handles.
Location: Church Road, Opposite the big Tesco in Hove.
