Read moreWe had such a fantastic experience at Teebox Cafe! The place has such a vibrant energy the moment you walk in, and the staff really make the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Booking was completely hassle-free, which made the whole experience even smoother.
We ordered the Avo on Toast and it was absolutely amazing – fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. The food here is clearly made with care and attention to detail.
The staff deserve a special mention too. They were friendly, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic. The younger team members especially stood out – they brought a lot of positivity and charm to the service, making us feel right at home.
Overall, a brilliant cafe with great vibes, delicious food, and wonderful people running it....
