Perfect brunch meet up with friends very inviting and friendly staff catering for the groups dog and toddler too. Great choice on the menu and portion sizes good. Easy to park and then walk along the river to the park for a walk. Only critic is too much potatoe items on the veg meal still very enjoyable a quorn sausage with hashbrown would work best imo.
Beautiful atmosphere with stunning breakfast and desert. Lovely people with exceptional service. Was with there with my wife and the breakfast and desert i ordered were so good she had to steal from my plate. Would definitely recommend visiting when your there.
Very happy to find this place as it was a beautiful day and everywhere was so busy. We easily got a table and a waitress approached us to take our order pretty quickly. Plenty of choice on the menu, if a little pricey for some items! The food was nice with good portions and the side salad was fresh and lovely. Now our experience was let down when we came to pay. My wife went up to the counter to pay, but she was told so go sit down and the waitress that served us originally would be over to take payment. She sat back down and we were left waiting for sometime and still she never returned. By this time my son was getting fed up and it was so hot in there, so I took him outside for some fresh air and my wife continued to wait. Now sitting there alone with empty plates on the table and no drink she was still not approached to pay. In the end she went back up to the counter and asked if she could pay as she didn't want to wait any longer, this time she was allowed to finally pay and leave. Why she couldn't have paid when she first approached the counter is beyond me, would have saved a lot of waiting around!
Amazing! This place is well worth a visit... the staff are super friendly and genuinely wanted to welcome you in and for you to have an enjoyable experience. The food is lovely and its dog friendly too which is always a bonus. Perfect, thank you
Popped in for lunch as the reviews were so good. Hubby had English breakfast and I had the river eggs Benedict. Both great portions and good quality. Lovely coffee and great staff with a lovely atmosphere.
What a find! Food, service, staff, prices; all ten out of ten. Forget everywhere else, if you miss this place you will regret it. Wished we lived in the area as would visit every day. Update: visited again today. Wonderful food and ambience. This is how all cafes should be run. Asked for tweek to menu and was delivered with a smile.
We found this gem of a cafe by chance and went in for breakfast, from the moment we entered it was easy to see the owner was very proud of his establishment and was enthusiastic, polite and attentive. The breakfast was amazing, very tasty and loads of it. Really good value for money. Thank you.
A gem of a place hidden away. Dog friendly cafe with lovely staff. We had the all day breakfast which was 10/10! Cooked to perfection and everything was hot when served. Thank you!
