Clare’s Cafe & Catering

Clare’s Cafe & Catering in Mayfield House offers a straightforward and welcoming spot for those craving a solid, no-fuss café experience in Hull’s HU5 area. This isn’t a place for intricate dishes or fancy plating — instead, it specializes in hearty breakfasts, generously sized sandwiches, and a range of burgers that locals appreciate for their value and portion size.

Most visitors here are locals popping in for a quick breakfast or lunch that stretches beyond the usual grab-and-go. The £5 breakfast stands out for combining freshness with a sizable serving, making it a practical start to the day, especially on weekday mornings when the café hums with polite staff offering friendly, attentive service. Sandwiches come in several classic varieties, from ham and turkey to chicken and bacon mayo, all served fresh and often enjoyed with a side of homemade baked goods that add a bit of indulgence to the casual meal.

The atmosphere is relaxed and approachable, with a trio of regulars and staff who maintain a warm, helpful vibe throughout the day. It’s easy to see this spot as part of the local rhythm — a place where you can grab a decent bacon and tomato sandwich that’s notably generous in size without breaking the bank. The café also provides catering and buffet options, reflecting its role as a local hub for both everyday dining and special gatherings.

People who enjoy Clare’s are those looking for comfort and practicality rather than trendiness — perhaps workers from nearby offices, families seeking a reliable breakfast, or anyone wanting a familiar sandwich or burger in a straightforward setting. Visiting mid-morning or just after the lunch rush offers the chance to enjoy the friendly smiles and dependable offerings without feeling rushed.
