Masterfully Crafting Unbeatable British Classics

We offer a delightful array of classic dishes at friendly prices. Every meal is lovingly prepared by Netty, with almost 50 years of culinary experience. Through the decades, Netty has honed the art of crafting indulgent recipes, ranging from our signature roast dinners to our irresistibly rich cheesecakes that never fail to sell out.

Founded in 2019 by Netty, The Railway Cafe is just part of her 50 year long journey in cooking. After dedicating a lifetime to the art of cooking, Netty took a leap of faith to share her love for home-cooked food with the community. The Railway Cafe emerged as a retreat where each dish, from our signature roasts to our fish and chips, carries the hallmark of Netty’s heritage. Over the years, it has grown to become more than just a cafe; it’s a cherished local where good food and smiles make every dining experience a memorable one.
