The best bacon roll (I think) I've ever had. I'm not exaggerating either. I'm no expert, merely a bacon roll enthusiast of some 40 years. It reminded me of bacon rolls from some eastern European countries. Czech Rep, Poland maybe. My tip, do not add sauce. Who doesn't like a bit of brown sauce on a bacon roll, but trust me when I say, DO NOT add sauce to this one as it only distracts you from the taste of the bacon and the well buttered, slightly toasted roll (which is equally as important as the bacon). Really good coffee. Really good sausage on a roll. Really friendly service. Reasonably priced. Nice venue.

First visit to Starosta yesterday and I liked it. Plus points are the friendliness of the owner and staff, the look, the ambiance, the comfort, the outside terrace and the amaaazing cheesecake. Negative points are that dogs are not allowed inside and the coffee is not very sexy. The cappuccino I had was ok but it was a fairly bland, old fashioned cafe style coffee, not a vibrant, rich, substantial, smooth and sexy modern coffee shop style coffee. We will return but only when the weather is good enough to sit outside, unless the "dogs not allowed inside" policy changes.

Fantastic addition to Inverkeithing life. My favourite was the sandwich with proper sourdough bread. My latte had the right sweetness. My little one hot chocolate was heaven in mouth (yes, I helped my child drinking it). The rocky mountain cake and Nutella cake ARE massive. I strongly suggest sharing the cake with your companion or take it with you home! The atmosphere so homely and fellow customers are polite too. My dream of nice cafe is fulfilled.

Beautiful cafe. Amazing looking selection of rolls and cakes. Varied menu board for hot drinks. Even though it wasn't on the board I enquired about a Chai Latte and yes it was no problem and got one made for me. Along with the Chai latte I had the pistachio and cream doughnut which was delicious and fresh. Lovely comfortable seating, with excellent and friendly service. Would recommend.

Excellent service today by the team at Starosta Café. They were happy to adapt their menu to accommodate my plant based diet. Friendly atmosphere and reasonably priced. Will definitely return.
