Always tasty food and coffee and they have a big indoor and outdoor space. Porridge with peanut butter was nice but it was too sweet for my taste. I'd rather having it without or with less honey.

Good atmosphere and friendly staff. Food menu is a little limited, but the options that were available were very good.

Food was out of my price range, not a fan how most dishes had extra charges. Coffee however was amazing (I have my coffee black) paid for a large mug. Taste was incredible. Little loud for me as I struggle to hear in busy environments. The cafe was very popular and I can see why. Decorated nice. Clean toilets.

Nice, cozy restaurant where the brunch is simple and the right amount of fussy (understated). Pretty relaxed vibe. The polenta cake was good.

It's my favourite brunch place/cafe in Cambridge! The food is amazing and the whole place has a really nice atmosphere, super relaxing and enjoyable for a date or catch-up with friends. The service is great and the staff is super friendly. I've been here quite a few times and it's always nice to come back. Definitely one of the best brunch places in Cambridge, if not the best.

Managed to snag a table on a busy Saturday morning and had a lovely coffee and breakfast. It was pretty pricey but a lovely venue and the food was super yummy. I got Shakshuka and my friend the avo toast

Great interior and generous full-on Porridge-like-no-other, almond milk, rolled oats, whole banana with added nut butter and berries compote, almond flakes and chia seeds (finish that and you'll last til dinner). Pricey food and coffee, coffee tasted a bit meh (when you compete on coffee at Cambridge the competition is tough) and very small portions (flat white came in a double espresso cup) though staff were kind enough to change the size and accommodate.

Nice place which is open even on Sundays at yearly morning. Good coffee and friendly staff. Tasty food.
Slightly over priced , in my opinion, but good portion size.
Overall: strong 5.

Nice, friendly cafe with a nice menu and great coffee.
The service is nice and friendly here, table service, even outside, which seemed a bit odd but I guess the way they do it. Things are a bit on the expensive side but good quality. Coffee was fine, not amazing but pretty good.
Great for larger groups due to the seating outside. Excellent for summer too.

Really nice place for brunch. Bright, airy and high ceilings. Service was quick and attentive. Really enjoyed the avocado toast with salmon and capers, very flavorful so you can tell the ingredients are good quality. Chemex drip coffee and chocolate Tiffin was good as well.
