Glutton & Glee

Today a new café has opened in Guildford. Called Glutton & Glee it serves food sourced only from the South East of England that includes breakfast favourites such as two boiled eggs with sourdough soldiers, yoghurt with fruit compote and granola; lunches that include homemade quiches with a choice of salads; sandwiches, cakes and pastries.There are gourmet coffees, special teas and soft drinks that include locally made Gran Stead's gingerbeer.
The little shop on Tunsgate (no 6) has been completely remodelled and now sports a tiny outside terrace with white tables and chairs as well as the cosy upstairs seating area. Everything gleams with fresh white paint, light wood and pastel shades. Their food for sale is artfully displayed in square spaces on the shelving along one wall upstairs. Here are locally sourced jams and chutneys, biscuit mixes, biscuits and chocolate - Easter themed at the moment.

We enjoyed cappuccino and americano coffees with almond croissant and pain au raisin. This was brought upstairs to us, although the coffee machine seemed to defeat the user as the americano took some time. All will be fine with a bit of practice, no doubt. Everything was delicious. Other people were sampling the boiled eggs that came complete with delightful egg cosies; quiche and salad; and filled baked potatoes that looked very generous portions.

Glutton & Glee look like a welcome addition to the Guildford scene.
There is a web site, but at time of posting it is just an announcement.
