We had a little break from Brunch Club over December and January as we were all so busy, our last one was at Oast Farm back in November! However we were back with a bang today at Hartfields in Uckfield. I had originally tried to book Wilderness Woods but it turns out they only do their full breakfast menu on the weekends and we didn't want to be restricted so I went with an old favourite which was on the list, Hartfields.
I've eaten in Hartfields a few times and have always enjoyed it. Service is always friendly and efficient and nothing is too much trouble. As there were 5 of us with 7 toddlers between us, they had to shuffle some tables around to fit our booking in so we could be comfortably seated in the window with 2 tables together. On the day though, 2 of our usual brunch clubbers couldn't make it but we managed to recruit a willing temporary member and Tessa joined us with her son so we still had 4 adults and 6 kids. There's a big window seat along the front of the cafe which is ideal to contain a few of the children and we had a high chair at either end of the large table. There is plenty to keep the wee ones occupied looking out of the window (including the occasional photographing Mummy!) so we managed to eat in relative peace.
Hartfields is a deli as well as a cafe and sells local produce and amazing cakes. Their coffee is lovely and food all freshly prepared.
We got there a bit early (I know, I don't know how that happened either!?) so I ordered myself a latte and the 1st Class Breakfast for the twins to share (and I stole some eggs and a taste of everything else since I knew I'd have vultures at my own breakfast) which came really quickly, ideal for hungry toddlers and mummy, even though they'd had Mini Wheats and banana already at home! When Zoe arrived I ordered my Eggs Royale and she got the Full Monty to share with her kids while we waited for the others to arrive. As usual, the food was amazing, I love their homemade beans and the scrambled eggs are delicious.
By the time everyone else was eating breakfast, my two were STILL hungry so I got us a piece of Plum Crumble Cake to share - it was AWESOME! So sticky, rich and sweet and with a yummy crumbly top, I'm hoping they do this one again!
I am so thrilled with Brunch Club! Since our very first one at The Grove in October, we've enjoyed some yummy food with fantastic company. The twins have really come out of their shells since hanging out with their new little friends and their Mummies and I am loving having regular catch ups with some awesome ladies, they all go to our playgroup on a Tuesday too. Both Kalyan and Priya are always asking for "Holly and Ockar" (Oscar) whenever we get in the car these days and get SO excited when I say we're going to see Martha! I believe K has quite the crush there!
