It's on the UK mainland! :-)

Abergavenny?

No, but it is in Wales.

I'm sure I've been past it if not in it, and I'm racking my brains

You don't half get some strange results if you do a Google image search for "Dorothy's Cafe"...
It was either the first or second hit when I searched, though it was red rather than blue in the associated photo.

A bit more urban than anywhere suggested so far.  I think Andrew is teasing us but, of course, googling means he's eliminated..

They do a wicked chicken curry and chips..

I'm afraid, on that basis, I'll have to self-eliminate too  ;D

Not too far from the Station, IIRC. Caerdydd. Pretty shitty area with pretentions.

Tony is very warm but I want the name of the street, or should it be the alley?

In which case it's gotta be on that filthy alleyway that leads away from the station, at the southern end of St. Mary Street and pretty much opposite the 'Spoons pub The Prince of Wales.
What on earth am I doing here on this beautiful day?! This is the only life I've got!!

I cannot remember the name without looking at google maps. Probably because I'd only go down there if I were pi$$ed.

That's good enough for me!  It's Caroline Street, Cardiff, otherwise known as "chip alley".

Yes, the main square in Marrakesh. Obviously too easy  :)
