Popped in to try a breakfast roll after seeing good reviews about Mr Pat's and I was not disappointed. Really soft section of a french stick with a nice long sausage, 2 rashers of bacon and an egg, all cooked to perfection. I will be back for more.

The food is good but not a perfect five star. Tried it when I was working there the other day as this was recommended by the locals. It took quite a while to order and also to come but when it did it was really nice. They did forget the chips initially so had to wait for those too but generous portion and taste was good too. I would go there again if I was ever in the area but it's not a must-visit.

I went to go get some pats wraps very cheap but such good quality only £4.50 for something of such excellent quality. The work atmosphere is absolutely amazing and they work as a team to complete tasks efficiently and effectively.The workers are polite and welcoming and check for wether you are allergic to any ingredients. They also have a great hygiene maintenance.
