100 percent agree with all of your points. They were valid. Constructive and to the point.
I was disappointed with the coffee. But it doesn't mean your cafe isn't a 5 star because your cafe is a 5 star. I admit I was a disgruntled customer and I let my frustration get the better of me. But I'm glad you helped me see the light.
I will continue to compare cafe's. But I will focus on strengths. For majority of the cafe's I visit in the area, I will always include the big 3 cafe's, as I believe these 3 have the most to offer, and I will compare, but in a strength focused approach, that way people have an informed but strengths based opinion.
I appreciate the way you helped me to see my review. It was the most nutritious humble pie I have consumed in many years.
So thank you for reaching out and not giving up on me. I have high respect for your rebuttle. It shows the true heart of your cafe. Will be back for a...

Came in on a Saturday morning. Ordered a coffee and croissant to take away. The staff who took my order at the counter was pleasant and friendly. Great start!

I had enough of the chaos after 30mins of this and proceeded to leave the venue without my goods... Shame as I was looking foward to trying out a place in the...
   Read moreThis place has definately taken a backward step. It has been one of my 84yo moyhers favourite places for lunch for many yeards. But, recently, it appears to have fallen off a cliff. Eggs benedict watery(not properly drained before plating) and missing the dhuka and balsamic. Bacon and rgg roll ptesented on a plate, but wrapped in paper as if for take away. Bread roll was dry and crusty, hard to eat. Coffee was luke warm. I am used to people not understanding that a flat white should not have an inch of foam on top, but when i ask for a coffee with no foam, i dont expect the cup to be presented showing that the foam jas clearly been scooped off the top of the coffee. I thought our last visit had been a 1 off, or a down day, but seems from other recent reviews there has been changes which have been...
