And this is our favourite café in Bath. It wouldn't suit everyone as it is the epitome of cheap-and-cheerful. But where else could you have a cup of tea and two scrambled eggs on toast for £5.50 and be transported right back to the 1960s? The staff are delightful, the formica, lino and lighting are incredibly nostalgic, and we cannot recommend it enough. However, as we said, it wouldn't suit everyone. But, in addition, it's in the wonderful Guildhall Market which visitors to Bath often miss but is really the jewel in the crown – it has literally everything, although let us pick out three indispensables: knitting wool (not at all expensive), blue berets (ditto) and the kind of things it's usually impossible to buy except from the website we don't mention: 13 amp fuses, large Chinese lampshades, and those white enamel bowls with a blue rim but not at crazy prices. It's ten minutes walk from the shop and shouldn't be missed by anyone coming to Bath to see us.
