"Popped in to get a sandwich and didn’t realise Cuckoos had expanded from Christchurch to Mudeford. I recognised the menu immediately. Particularly the Scottish Breakfast. It’s a smaller place so the food is more designed for it but still yummy. I had a bacon Brie and cranberry sandwich to takeaway. The staff were friendly and the music had a really good chill vibe. Perfect place to stop for food, tea/coffee or an ice cream."

"A good little old school style cafe doing English breakfast favourites. A full English is £10.50, which is good value in this area. It is standard fare, not special. The staff are friendly and service is quick. There is outdoor seating and parking on the road outside."
