Mamawu Café, nestled on Main Road in Nutbourne, Emsworth, is a bustling spot that captures the essence of a warm, communal dining experience. As a food reviewer for Goto Where, I'm thrilled to share my impressions of this charming café, where the rhythm of morning rush hails from the enticing aroma of cooked breakfasts and hearty lunchtime fare. The breakfast menu boasts delightful options like the classic Full English Breakfast (£13.50) and the innovative Breakfast Burrito (£8.95), both receiving accolades for their flavor and generous portions. Vegan and vegetarian diners will appreciate the thoughtful options like the Vegan Breakfast (£9.50) and Breakfast Muffin (£7.95), showcasing their commitment to inclusivity in dining. Patrons consistently rave about the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere, evidenced by reviews praising staff who connect with regulars. Whether it's a spontaneous visit for a comforting Bangers & Mash (£12.75) or a post-ride stop for refreshments, Mamawu Café goes beyond mere sustenance; it cultivates a sense of community. The café manages to strike a balance, offering great value without compromising on quality. This café has quickly become a favorite destination that promises not just a meal, but a memorable experience for all. Whether accompanied by your four-legged friend or family, Mamawu Café deserves a spot on your culinary map!

Very busy. We arrived about 10:30 in the morning and there was only one free table which was a surprise. Lots of free space around. Chose this because I could take my doggie in. I would’ve liked something on the menu for him but gave him a sausage out of my bap and he was quite happy. Expensive, but I expected to pay that for the quality.

Regular visitors of Mamawu and can’t fault it! Staff are great and have taken the time to know my son’s name and interact with him on every visit. Food is always great and reasonably priced! Probably the best all round cafe in the area!

Great find. We were visiting my dad in a local nursing home and popped in for lunch. Good selection of food and drinks and the tables are nicely spaced, rather than being jammed in. We will definitely be back!

Was out on a McMillan charity 50mile bike ride from Brighton to Portsmouth and was hoping this lovely little establishment would accommodate a load of riders needing a top up on waters and drinks. The man that served us was more then happy to help and even Iced all of our drinks. Will definitely be popping by when me and the misses are in the area! We made it home and made 2800 for charity! THANK YOU!!!!

First visit to Mamawu and decided to go for lunch with my best friend. I had the American pancakes with bacon and maple syrup which was delicious. My friend had Mamawu eggs with bacon which was also cooked to perfection, I have never seen such golden yolks! Staff were friendly, service quick and the restaurant was clean with a lovely calm atmosphere. Will def be returning.

Lovely lunch stop here today! The place was full and the food took a little while to come out but was worth the wait. We had the katsu curry and Korean fried chicken, both of which were delicious. The staff were attentive and very friendly. We will definitely be back :)
