Signal Box Cafe

Today was my first time of visiting this establishment. So start with the pros… great location and a beautiful conversion and repurposing of an old signal box. There was a reasonable selection of items and food appeared to be cooked to order and the pricing was fair. The The drawbacks: Service at the till was quite slow but what I will say is that this seemed mostly to do with how orders were being passed over to the kitchen which felt a little disorganised. Might have just been a busy spell when I visited so I’ve not marked that down too harshly, as I note other reviews speak highly of service and to be fair whilst a little slow, the guy on the till was incredibly polite and customer focused. One thing I would like to see is a better air conditioner or more of them, or even fans to get a bit of air movement - the portable one by the till wasn’t coping with the heat which made things rather uncomfortable - but I accept it was a rather hot day compounded by the heat coming from the kitchen. But I think diner comfort is something to consider for hot days. Would I go back again? Yes! It wasn’t perfect today but much better than the average and indeed better than some branded outlets found at stations.
