"Highly recommended. We had an excellent caramel latte and a green smoothie, the bacon bagel and the black pudding bagel. All delicious 🤤"

"Unfortunately, I never had a good experience when I visited, we were left standing at the counter, the girl that was working payed no interest in us being there, and certainly didn't look as if she wanted to be there. We left after standing for around 5 minutes without as much as a I'll be with you shortly, the cafe was relatively empty and she clearly wasn't run off her feet. I have given 2 stars because the cafe is dog friendly and my dog got a drink of water inside, Lucky him."

"I came here today with my boyfriend and his family and it was lovely. The food was very good, we got bagels and a desert. My boyfriend said to mention he really liked his blueberry and matcha latte. The decoration and atmosphere feels very comfy and welcoming, and the staff were so lovely. They accidentally made another bagel so gave it to us for free. I'd definitely recommend coming here!"

We came in near closing time for a coffee & were welcomed in regardless.If you love good coffee then you will love it here. Not too hot so the beans aren’t scorched, smooth & delicious - better than a chain coffee any day.
