Tucked away in St Albans, Little Star Cafe at 90 Sandridge Rd offers a delightful mix of British café classics and Mediterranean-inspired comfort food that shines with homemade charm. The Little Star Cafe Menu is refreshingly diverse, catering to both hearty appetites and those seeking lighter bites, making it a go-to spot for breakfast, lunch, or a casual brunch with friends.
A standout from the breakfast selection is the Full English Breakfast, generously plated with eggs, sausages, bacon, baked beans, grilled tomato, mushrooms, and toast-a robust option that’s cooked to order and never greasy. For those leaning toward something lighter, the Avocado Toast with Poached Eggs delivers freshness and balance with a touch of chili flakes and lemon zest.
Lunch offerings on the menu include comforting classics such as the Homemade Lasagne, layered with rich Bolognese and creamy béchamel, served with a side salad. Another popular item is the Chicken Panini, filled with tender grilled chicken, melted mozzarella, and a tangy tomato pesto, all pressed to crispy perfection. Vegetarians aren’t left behind either; the Falafel Wrap with hummus and salad is both satisfying and well-seasoned.
Drinks and sweets round out the experience. The Cappuccino is rich and aromatic, and pairs beautifully with their homemade Victoria Sponge Cake, which strikes the perfect balance between fluffy and indulgent.
What makes Little Star Cafe stand out is the genuine warmth of its service and the attention to fresh, quality ingredients. Unlike larger chains, the experience here feels personal-like dining in a friend’s home. With fair pricing and consistently well-executed dishes, it’s a hidden gem for locals and a welcome find for visitors to St Albans. Whether you're after a relaxed breakfast or a cozy midday meal, Little Star Cafe is a star worth discovering.
