Edit: there seems to be a new floor manager. She's lovely and attentive. I appreciate being able to place a phone order for pickup. If you want to dine with your dog, enter from the rear / side lane, for outdoor courtyard seating. Dine in and enjoy the fresh air and peaceful vibe in the rear courtyard. Flawless breakfast, tea and service. Very friendly, quick and attentive service. Lovely crockery.

Staff were very friendly and service was prompt. Prices were good. Lovely atmosphere with the garden out the back. Good location near public transport. Iced latte was great and generous serving size. The egg and bacon roll was impressive as well.

❄️ Freezing cold café, even colder attitude. The staff couldn’t care less, and the manager was straight-up rude — I honestly felt thrown out rather than served. Zero warmth, zero hospitality, zero respect. 👎 If you’re after a friendly local spot, look elsewhere — this place is all attitude and no atmosphere. 🚫☕
