Visited 17/05/2024 - Good food, waiter could have been a little more attentive as was holding a child but had to get the high chair myself (while still holding my child). Generally good atmosphere and friendly people.
Decent cafe. Slow service as it’s very packed. The breakfast was okay. Very expensive though and the portions are quite small - 1 egg , 1 bacon, 1 sausage and half toast in a £12 full English. Coffee isn’t the best too. Nice vibe though!
Lovely cakes Inc vegan and gf. Breakfasts are quality and decent size. We had the house breakfast, avo toast and sweetcorn fritters. All delicious. Very very fast service. Staff are very friendly. Definitely worth the price. There is a shop with nice gifts and a gallery. Highly recommend.
Really enjoyable 11am Sunday brunch. Coffee and orange juice were great. Very adventurous menu, for example, the cooked breakfast had a wonderfully tasty polenta slice instead of the usual potato hash brown. This was really, really good. Homemade beans were a bit al dente for my liking and I thought they they tasted a bit funky for a breakfast item. The black pudding, sausage, egg on buttered sourdough were all fantastic. The cooked tomatoes were grilled and slightly charred to a caramelised perfection. My partner had a sort of salmon avocado eggs benedict royale but it was on a herby scone base instead of the usual muffin. Again, I thought it tasted a bit funky and I'm not sure it's one for the puritans.
