Best lunch we've had for quite a while.
Food was fresh, tasty and delicious.
The bacon and walnut salad was so good and tuna melt very very tasty.
Coffee and music spot in as was all the staff.
Excellent value for money.
Staff is extremely friendly, approachable and helpful. They served me with a big smile in this faces what makes a huge difference.
I have eaten a influence XXL and was delicious, they have a hand made coleslaw and the bread, sausage, bacon and onions makes a great combination.
I will definitely come back.
What a find! Great menu! Plenty of choice! GF options and all freshly made to order.
Will be back next next we're in Darlington, with our dog.
Beautiful food I had the eggs benedict and they were amazing! Lovely staff and beautiful dogs too would highly recommend for a relaxing coffee
This place is magnificent. Food is exceptional. Seriously good. Also excellent coffee. Real labour of love.
Never been before and we called by for a light bite of lunch. Top marks from us both. Food and service excellent. Julie's coffee was very good and my hot chocolate was the best I've had since Christmas in Prague last year. The focaccia in the sandwiches was delicious. Will definitely go back.
Really enjoyed my Christmas lunch today the Turkey Sandwich was lovely and with a very good menu selection I will definitely be calling again. Highly recommend the Hot Sand Coffee. The staff are very friendly 😀
This is one of the best cafe's in Darlington I've found. For coffee lovers there's the Turkish coffee, and for tea fans there are a selection of more 'exotic' options that you'd not find else where. The baked goods seem to be homemade because they are divine.
The quality of the food and drinks are well worth the price.
Edit: Forgot to put that it's also dog friendly!
Walked past this cafe so many times, today was a first visit for a bite of brunch with a friend. Atmosphere was relaxed, staff friendly. First time in a while for loose leaf tea - but it was amazing along with Eggs Benedict. Place was busy so had to wait a little while forcthe food but we weren't disappointed. Cakes looked divine too - but alas another time.
The bacon and sausage roll was one of the best i have ever had. The service was excellent served with a smile 😃
