About Us
Take a look into what we do and immerse yourself in our story. We’ll take you through our journey and what you can expect.
Our Story
In 2018, The Railway Cafe opened its doors, operated by Netty, a seasoned cook from Hull with almost 50 years of culinary experience. The cafe initially served as a dining spot for lorry drivers in the evenings. However, with the onset of Covid, we saw an increase in patrons from Parkeston, Harwich, and even distant towns like Clacton and Colchester, all eager to taste Netty’s Signature Roast Dinners on Sundays and her home-cooked meals during the week.
Always aiming to meet the demands of our growing clientele, The Railway Cafe introduced a Friday Fish and Chips Evening, which quickly became a hit. We continue to explore new ideas and look forward to offering more delightful dishes in the future.
Don’t Forget, We Do Events!
We don’t only do all our homemade foods, desserts, Fish and Chips Fridays and our Signature Sunday Roasts.. We also do events! We cater for various events Wedding Receptions, Wakes, Christenings etc.
Whatever you need we can cater for. Usually we do this with buffets and cream teas but if you give us a call we’ll do our best for you! Just mention you’d like to book an event when you call.
