I visited Red Brick Cafe and ordered a matcha latte and a brownie. While I had high hopes, my experience was a bit mixed.

Firstly, the matcha latte wasn't as strong as I prefer. It lacked the robust flavour that I usually enjoy in my matcha drinks. On the other hand, the brownie was very dry and could have definitely been better. I was hoping for something moist and rich but was left disappointed.

That being said, the staff at Red Brick Cafe were incredibly friendly and accommodating. During my visit, I accidentally left my phone at the cafe. The staff found it and kept it safe for me until I returned, which I truly appreciated. Their attentiveness and honesty in this situation were commendable.

The atmosphere inside the cafe is quite decent, especially for students looking for a place to study or work. However, the outside seating area leaves much to be desired. Sitting close to garbage bins detracts from the overall experience, which is unfortunate considering the potential for a pleasant outdoor spot.

In summary, while the food and drinks didn’t quite meet my expectations, the friendly staff and decent indoor atmosphere make Red Brick Cafe worth a visit. However, there is certainly room for improvement, especially in the quality of the brownie and the strength of the matcha latte. If these issues are addressed, I believe the cafe could be a much better spot for both casual visits and study sessions.
