About This Pub

Oh, mate, let me tell you about Fountain Cafe; it's one of those hidden gems that really brightens up a day out in Waltham Cross. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the staff are just lovely – always greeting you with a smile and getting things sorted quickly, like that efficient waitress who's become a bit of a legend. The food? Well, it's spot-on; affordable and packed with flavour, whether you're tucking into a full meal or something lighter. It's clearly a favourite with the locals, which gives it that proper community feel, and being open seven days a week from early morning till evening makes it dead handy for any time of day. On the flip side, without a website or much online info, it can be a faff to plan a visit, and it does get busy, so you might end up queueing a bit or finding it a tad overwhelming if you're after a quiet spot. All in all, though, it's a solid choice for anyone looking for good value and a warm welcome – I'd say give it a go if you're in the area, as long as you're up for that lively vibe.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The service is absolutely spot-on – staff are super friendly and efficient, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • The food is a real winner; it's tasty, well-priced, and hits the spot every time, with plenty of options to choose from.
  • It's a lively spot buzzing with locals, which gives it a welcoming, community vibe that's perfect for a casual catch-up.
  • Open every day from 7am to 9pm, so it's super convenient whether you're after a hearty breakfast or a relaxed evening meal.
  • Tucked in a great location near Cheshunt, making it easy to pop in after a walk or while out and about.
Cons
  • No website or online presence means it's a bit tricky to check the menu or book ahead, so you might just have to wing it.
  • As it's unclaimed on Google, there could be room for improvements in how it's managed, like more updates or extras for visitors.
  • It can get pretty busy, especially with the locals, which might mean a short wait for your food or a table on peak times.

Great find! Busy cafe with lots of locals. Service was fantastic, the girl (with long hair) was very friendly and efficient. Food was great, very tasty and at great prices! So happy that M&S cafe is no longer as we would have missed out on this little gem. Will definitely visit again 👍

Best cafe/restaurant I’ve ate in. Travel up and down the country for work every week and eat out most days. But this is miles above the rest. Waitress is lovely and the back staff are friendly also. Food is amazing!!
