"Fantastic food at a great price. We had our breakfast within 10 minutes of ordering and they were made from scratch. The chef takes great pride in the presentation and quality of the food. We couldn’t have been more pleased with this place! We would absolutely return!"

"Visited May 2025: This place is NO-LONGER, Lilly's Cafe - I came here based on the reviews & pictures that I saw from previous customers. It is now called The Oven, I decided to stay as they had veggie options. It's presented as a Turkish cafe.

On my visit, there were too many small details which needed attention, and I also had an issue with the food & coffee.

I never want to hurt a business and hope that constructive feedback will improve the service as I can see the owners are hard-working people. On the day there was one person cooking, the lady, and a gentleman who was out front taking orders & serving etc

Pros - service is friendly and polite. The cafe is clean & well presented inc toilet. As well as the main menu, they have additional snacks in the cold counter e.g. Turkish flatbread sandwiches inc veggie options (which can be heated) also cakes and other sweet treats. They also have alternative milk - oak, coconut etc
Music was nice (I assume instrumental Turkish music) until I realised it was the same song over and over - I was there for about 50/60mins
There were a number of other customers there, so that's a good sign.

Cons - my chosen table was cleared upon arrival, lovely seat by the window. But the guy didn't restock the cutlery pot, serviettes, or check the salt & pepper shakers. When I received my food, I had to ask for cutlery, serviettes and pointed out that there was no pepper in the grinder. After clearing a table, these things should always be checked. They are very basic.

The ventilation is poor, and you will leave smelling like a fry-up. They should open the window wider above the door or open the door as it was a warm day.

Food & Drink - I ordered a flat white with coconut milk. It wasn't nice as 2/3rds was a thick whipped like froth. The cup was small so hardly any coffee to drink.

I ordered the veggie breakfast & forgot to say how I wanted my eggs & whether I wanted toasted white or brown bread. I realised this was an option after looking at the menu again, however, when my order was taken, I should have been asked if I wanted my eggs fried, scrambled or poached, also white or brown bread. Thankfully, I was able to give them my choice in time after I had realised.

My food arrived nicely presented, but one of my poached eggs was not cooked properly. The white of the egg was still clear/see-through. I was concerned and scraped the egg away. I know I shouldn't feel uncomfortable about raising the issues in the moment, and the guy did approach me & asked if everything was ok, but with other customers around, I actually felt uncomfortable to complain about the coffee, food being too cold for my liking & the egg not being cooked properly, especially as I had to ask for cutlery, serviettes etc which even upon serving me, they didn't even realise I had none.

I also observed that the guy on the table next to me was surprised to receive scrambled eggs. He wanted his eggs fried, but he was not asked this during his order, so they then had to provide him with fried eggs. Again, it highlights a lack of attention, and there were also other tables without sufficient cutlery, etc

With better organisation and attention to detail, this place could improve. The location is great. It also has outside seating. The owners are very nice people, and for that, I would hope they will improve things.

Unfortunately, my battery died, so I couldn't take a pic of the food when it arrived."

"What a beautiful place! The staff are extremely friendly, always greet you with a smile and they are are really fast with their service!

Now the coffee! Their coffee machine is one of the best brands on the market, paired with the skill of the staff, you are guaranteed a consistently great cup of coffee every time!

The food is excellent and affordable too! Not only does it taste great, I haven't seen food presented so beautifully in any other coffee shop in Windsor!

This place is a must go! You won't be disappointed!"
