Greetings, burger enthusiasts and roadside café connoisseurs! Grab your napkins, lean in, and let me tell you about a magical place that’ll turn your average highway pit stop into a gourmet getaway. I'm talking about Nice Baps, a gem of a spot where they take your baps seriously. And no, not those baps; I mean the bready ones, you cheeky rascal!
Nestled in the culinary wonderland between Wadebridge and Camelford, just off the A39 (so easy to find, it practically waves at you as you drive by), this family-run café is so heartwarming, it could melt butter on a cold scone.
Missed Kevin, the owner? I did too! The guy's a character who probably high-fives unicorns in his spare time. But fret not, his wife Laura was there, holding down the fort with her sister. You know it's all love and laughter when the family's in charge.
The food? Imagine if taste had a superhero; it would be Nice Baps' Atlantic Chicken Burger. Not just one, but two juicy pieces of chicken lounging on a bed of bacon, cheese, and fresh lettuce, all cuddled up in a soft bun. It's like a delicious family reunion in your mouth, minus the awkward conversations with Uncle Bob.
Portions? Bigger than your grandma's hug. Prices? Friendlier than your dog when you walk in the door. And the fact that they turned down Costa's offer of £750k? Priceless, like a winning lottery ticket dipped in gold.
Gordon Ramsay pops in. David Cameron's been seen munching away. If this place had a VIP list, it would read like a who's who of "People Who Know a Good Thing When They Eat It."
Compared to that other spot up the road (ahem, St Kew, I'm looking at you), Nice Baps is the café equivalent of a rock concert headlined by a burger-toting Elvis.
Open Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 3 PM, and oh-so-cruelly closed on Sundays. It's like a little roadside tease, reminding you of what could be if only you’d passed by on a different day.
So, dear fellow travelers on the road of deliciousness, make a pit stop at Nice Baps. Special journeys deserve special burgers, and this café has them in spades. It's a place where every bap is nice, every customer is family, and every bite is a celebration.
I'll be back. You should too. But not on Sundays. On Sundays, we weep, dream of chicken burgers, and count down the hours to Monday. 🍔🚗⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
