Maries Cafe is on Lower Marsh, close to Waterloo station. It looks like your typical 'greasy spoon caf' - complete with formica tables and squeezy bottle of tomato ketchup. But they serve really good value and delicious simple Thai and Brit food - stir frys, currys, egg & chips etc. So you can eat well for under a fiver and the helpings are large. The Thai staff are friendly and efficeint - which is just as well as its often busy and you somethimes need to wait for a table. More the sort of place to go for breakfast or lunch - but I think they are open until early evening.

This little BYO cafe is truly cheap and cheerful. The setting might not be much (plastic tables, mismatched glasses) and the service doesn't always come with a smile, but the food is some of the best Thai I've had in London. I used to live around the corner and would go there about once a week with my flatmate. We'd bring a bottle of wine, tuck in to pad thai, basil prawns, yam salad, chicken satay, and walk away stuffed having only spent around £20 between us.

Top cafe with basic but tasty fried breakfast options, as well as a selection of good-looking Thai dishes and curries. Very cheap but very cheerful, it was a joy to eat there.
