What a wonderful little place! I surprised my wife and 9mth old baby for my wife’s birthday for brunch this morning, all I can say is wow. All of the staff were so friendly, and the brunch was amazing! They had a high chair for the baby which was great, and the atmosphere was so friendly and welcoming. Service was great, food was great, drinks were great, no complaints at all from us. And an amazing extra that we weren’t expecting,
My wife got a free slice of cake for her birthday, so lovely. We went for the special, a Biscoff brownie. Oh my god… sublime! Can’t wait to come back again soon ☺️
Came for bottomless brunch for the first time and we’re not from round here. Was very busy so the initial service was understandably slow but the staff definitely made up for it later on. They were attentive and always made sure we had what we needed. The breakfast was amazing and the cakes are next level, would definitely recommend :)
Popped in without booking a table and luckily got one! Friendly staff, as always, quick service and delicious brunch. I enjoyed the Half Goo (English breakfast) and a pot of tea. Just perfect 😋
Just passing through and we got lucky and found Black Goo! Fabulous place, we sat near kitchen pass and watched plate after plate of tasty food leave the pass in a timely fashion. We had a full goo breakfast and Mac and Cheese. The breakfast was fantastic,all good quality ingredients well cooked enjoyed all of it very much. My wife had Mac 'n' Cheese, again very tasty... little stronger Cheese would make it perfect. The cakes are just splendid and approx 1 trillion calories and worth every one of them. Will definitely go back again.
Very cool, dog-friendly restaurant. The service was excellent. We waited a bit for food (eggs Benedict and the veggie goo breakfast) but when it came it was really good. The veggie breakfast could have taken some more seasoning (particularly the tomato and avocado) but overall it was a great experience.
Bonus points for being so helpful with our doggo and bringing him water and a bed!
What a great find, fabulous for breakfast, dinner and so much more!
With some great vegan and veterinarian options, not withstanding the most wonderful range of cake...
Hard to find a reason not to visit, and very much on the food map of Thame, I cant wait to pop back....
And I did today, 28th April 2023 ... Still amazing...
Absolutely amazing place and brilliant service. I think this must be one of the most dog friendly places we have been to. As soon as we were seated, we asked if we wanted a dog bed and water for the dog. Makes you feel valved want to go back, need to book as it gets really busy from opening time.
I've been to Black Goo a few times now and I've always thoroughly enjoyed the food and my time there. The staff are very friendly, caring and attentive. They are careful to check for allergies and intolerances. Today they went the extra mile when we ordered cake to check if it was for a gluten free family member. We had half goo cooked breakfasts which were delicious. My latte and tea was lovely too... we loved the sweet little house tea pot! The selection of cakes is great and they quite magnificent! They offer a great variety and they are absolutely huge - great to share or take home in a box for later or to share with the family! I would highly recommend this lovely cafe - but, a bit of advice, if you're planning on having cake, do allow enough time to browse the selection as it could take a while to decide!
Lovely, attractive cafe that is well-equipped to maintain social distancing with nicely decorated perspex screens between tables. Their afternoon tea was simply sensational. I have never been beaten by an afternoon tea, but this one was so enormous that I had to take some bits home. The sausage rolls and scotch eggs were really delicious and there was an abundance of lovely sandwiches that were quite different to a regular afternoon tea (coronation chicken, falafel...). The cakes were lovely and scones were as big as your face! The staff were very attentive and made sure we could get the most out of bottomless experience. They were in no hurry to get rid of us either! Highly recommended
Best scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage I've had in while. Worth every penny! Also nice selection of goodies ( White chocolate rocky road 🤤) Definitely recommend.
Bright, bountiful and bursting with flavour.
My partner and I sat down for breakfast, we didn't book but they managed to squeeze us in. Very friendly welcome, staff and space well dressed. Food was good, pricing was standard and was very quick to come out. Possibly too quick as we like our sausages and bacon a little bit more well done. We also ordered a tea between us and it was massive!
9/10 would come back :)
Wonderful staff found us a table for an hour in-between bookings for a coffee and cake even though we hadn't booked and they were really busy .. cake was lush.. thanks so much
Walk by...we saw their window show case of bread and cakes, they are too attractive to walk away!!
Staff are friendly and nice atmosphere.
All day breakfast are great, many choices and bread are good as expected from windows look.
Just one thing...they don't accept Amex card, so give 4 star.
Nipped in today as I saw gluten-free on the cakes in the window. Decided to give the cherry Bakewell cake and a Nutella brownie thing a go. They were delicious me and partner preferred the cake but both were lovely. I will be going back for sure waist line permitting
Visited Black Goo for the first time this morning with our Spaniel. Only had coffee, but service and staff outstanding, and even brought over a bowl of water for our dog, without asking for one. Will definitely be going back again.
Last week a group of us cycled from Marlow to Black goo to celebrate a friends birthday. We were welcomed with a complimentary glass of bubbles each and the food and customer service was excellent. Needless to say it was a struggle to get back on the bikes to cycle back to Marlow after the nosh up 😋... We will be back!!! 😊
The most beautiful cake at very short notice for an 80th birthday, could not be more helpful and the recipient was very very pleased, delicious elder-flower and rhubarb sponge, multi-layer with amazing icing and glitter blackberries. Thank you very much !!!!!
