Lovely place for Breakfast. We stopped here on a Sunday morning for a cooked breakfast. Service is good and friendly, food is tasty and the restaurant and toilets are clean. Will be back. :)

I recently moved here from Germany with my daughter and we can hardly stay from this place. It’s like an Allrounder. Food=perfect, service=perfect and atmosphere=perfect. We keep coming back for all three! The hosts are so welcoming and warm and the food is über delicious. We leave the establishment totally satisfied, every time. They offer a big variety of foods, shakes and waffles and they make everything fresh! Phenomenal!

A small shop in Colchester town which sells Indian snacks / street food (like vada pav, samosa, bhel puri, etc) tea/coffee, pastries, juice, ice creams etc. Nice ambiance and good customer service . You can find it near to the river island outlet.

Very nice casual cafe. Really like that they are open late (until 9pm) for Colchester's standards. Other cafes are usually closed much earlier than that.

What a gorgeous cafe! I hae been here many times and it is always my go to place to eat in Colchester. The Indian Street Food especially is absolutely incredible, and the desserts are divine. Such amazing food for such amazing prices as well.

A lovely cafe tucked away from the town centre with a mix of classic cafe food with Indian Street food. The cafe also sells ice cream and sweet treats. Food and drink were high quality and will be going back when I'm next in Colchester

The staff there are amazing, very friendly. There was a new guy not so good but he is being trained really well. And they honestly seem very friendly! Coffee and the cake is lovely! One of my top three in Colchester

The food and atmosphere here is unbeatable its such a cozy little place. If you have a sweet tooth look no further, home made cakes, muffins, waffles and on top of that ice cream and sundaes. I'm not sure if the nice lady behind the counter owed the shop or not but she had the kindness and professionalism like she did. Will defo return in future. The only thing I could possibly say that might be bad is that is a little bit pricey.... that being said you get what you pay for and is worth the money and the service is an added extra
