A very simple but quiet place, excellent food I ate an omelet with chips, good. One of the waitresses is Italian, very kind and experienced in her work. I will be back. Thank you .

Lovely cafe to go for brunch, a very spacious cafe with lots of seats. It was our second visit and the food wasn't as great as our first time but still good. I'm guessing some dishes are yummy so we just need to go more to see which ones are they. Coffees are similar for some odd reason, my mocha during my first visit was amazing but second visit wasn't as good, let's see what happens in my next visit.

Beautiful hidden gem if you hadn’t heard of the cafe, it is one of this that isn’t stood out very well but my aunt brought me here today. I ordered one of the specials and my compliments to the chef as was beautifully balanced on spices and portion was bigger than expected. Enjoyed very much. When I asked if had cream - I thought pouring cream so ordered a coffee with cream, had an americano with squirty cream but did work just as well. Staff were fantastically friendly and I recommend visiting here.

Tasty, reasonable and friendly service. Try the full veggie breakfast. The veggie sausages are lovely and a generous portion of beans which others skimp on. Keep it up guys. Will return.

Great little spot, which was surprising as I wasn't expecting much. The food was delicious, and we particularly liked the bright lighting.

I came here with a friend for the 1st time today and pleasantly surprised. Got a coffee and cake. Really like the light in the space and there's nothing quite like it close by. It was nice they had sofas so not all hard seating. They close the first part of the cafe earlier than the other at a bit of an unusual time but otherwise really nice.
