The staff were friendly and the service was quick. While the food was satisfactory, we found the haggis, which we were trying for the first time, had a rather interesting taste.

I don't see myself ever being back here. The staff were very unfriendly. No, hello or good morning when I came in. …

This is a very traditional and very nice café. We stopped here and we got double egg on toast and it was absolutely delicious. I had a coffee, it was very nice but slightly strong for me but I’m sure most people would like a strong coffee. …

One of the best dining experiences I’ve had! The food was delicious and full of flavor, but what truly made it special was the lovely lady ( Maryam) running the place. She was incredibly kind, warm, and welcoming. You can feel the love in both the service and the food. Highly recommended — will definitely come back

Basic but good. Been going here for ages and so far haven't been overcharged. Menu is basic but good. Your not going to find any smashed avocados here. Friendly staff every time I've been. Can recommend for simple hearty food.
