Duran's Cafe, tucked away on Chalfont Road in Maple Cross, serves up a straightforward and welcoming spot for locals and visitors alike who need a solid meal with no fuss. This is very much a café-restaurant hybrid that shines during breakfast and lunchtime hours, attracting a mixed crowd from early commuters grabbing a bite before heading out, to families and local workers dropping in for a filling meal.

The atmosphere leans towards practical and clean, with a focus on quick, friendly service rather than lingering over coffee. You’ll find well-prepared, hearty dishes like their Cheese and Mushroom Omelette with Chips or the more traditional Black Pudding Beans—both offering substantial portions that feel just right after a morning walk or a long drive. The menu also features comforting choices such as homemade milkshakes and a range of paninis, including interesting options like Halloumi & Sucuk, which add a touch of local flavour without overcomplicating the menu.

Locals appreciate the spot for its reliability and value—meals come hot and satisfying, served promptly by staff who know regulars’ preferences, adding a layer of ease to the experience. The clean, no-nonsense environment makes it a good place for a quick breakfast or a straightforward lunch on the go. Whether you’re passing through heading toward Heathrow or just nearby in Rickmansworth, it’s the kind of place that provides a pause with quality food rather than flashiness.

Best times to visit are around breakfast and lunchtime when the food is fresh and the pace is steady, making it very suitable for those who don’t want to wait long but still crave a well-made meal. The vibe stays low-key but welcoming, fitting for anyone who prefers a fuss-free dining experience where the food and service speak for themselves.

The food was 10/10 and had good portions. The service was excellent. She knew exactly what we would be asking her to get next, which is impressive.

Stumbled upon this great little place on the way to Heathrow, nice and clean with good service and excellent food at very reasonable prices, would recommend to anyone passing tbro' that way. My only regret is that it's abit to far away for us to use more often. 10/10

One-stop for your breakfast: Duran's Coffee! Every time I come here, I enjoy it and leave with a full belly—delicious food every time. The prices are competitive and offer great value for money. Their classic Full English Breakfast is a must-try! One of the best things about this place is the staff and the chef—always helpful, smiling, and offering great hospitality. Chef Huseyin knows what he's doing. After just a couple of visits, he already remembers how you like your eggs, toast, and everything else.
