Fantastic cafe serving yummy homemade food and snacks. Awesome breakfasts to set our day up for our football days home and away! Staff are friendly, efficient and well-mannered making sure our food and drinks are served in preparation for every train journey we take and at respectable prices. So nice to have independent food and drinks outlet at our disposal, as opposed to chains. The Runaway Café every time for us - faultless.

My favourite & the best station café around. 30 years old this year as well!

Why do they still have a 3 minimum charge? Ended up paying 4.25 for a 2.50 drink as I had to buy an inedible stale piece of flapjack as I didn't have any cash. I thought this was against EU directive? Or are they proactive Brexiteers?

My favourite station café in the South East! Not a franchise, plenty of staff at busy times, rapid friendly service. It's on platform 2 don't use the chain place at the station hall, you'll pay double for something half as good.

The Runaway is one of the few independently run station cafes and is celebrating its 30th birthday. There is a fantastic display of cakes, many homemade including gluten free. They also do hot snacks and a variety of sandwiches and there is a bar serving alcohol. Staff are amazing and they even make sure you don't miss your train. Prices are very competitive and the coffee is really good. Much better than a chain and long may they continue!

Its great, but old fashioned - mostly in a good way. The fact it doesn't take cash is either refreshingly quaint or insane. That's up to you i suppose. The sandwiches are brilliant, hand-made and taste great - but don't forget your coins. Decoration could probably be updated by 20 years or so. Still - better than the generic offering of most stations.

Beware if you just want a coffee for 2.30 they will charge minimum of 3.00 if you pay by card. Won't going there in future.
