Been house hunting around the Alderley region lately and have stumbled upon the Green Oven on Samford Road. This place is a bit of a laid-back gem. It's not bold and brashy, but a great little cafe, which does food well and serves good coffee. We've been for lunch a couple of times and they have loads of delicious goodies like lasagnas, pies, quiches and sweet treats. But the real hit was breakfast. It's a simple menu featuring good produce - largely including organic eggs and spelt bread. Clint & I both had the special, which was Boston bacon beans on cornbread and it was just fabulous (see below).
This area in Alderley is apparently about to undergo some serious re-development around the train station and I think it's well past it's due date. Most of the shops are pretty decrepit or empty - I guess there's no point doing up your shop if the whole precinct is about to change. The Green Oven itself is an unobtrusive space in amongst all of this, but still has a nice vibe with some rustic and retro furniture. Hopefully the cafe will still be there post the re-development.
