This has become our favourite sandwich place! We loved it so much the first time that we've been back twice more! We've tried all of the sandwiches now (except the chickpea one) and we've loved every single one! The breakfast bagel is probably our favourite. The coffee is fantastic and the tea good too - I especially like their choice of Earl Grey as it has a slightly different flavour profile to most - perhaps something like a touch of cinnamon?

The barista got our coffee wrong, which can happen. So on our way back we went back with our coffees and explained that they had got our orders mixed up. The barista’s attitude was almost as if ‘yeah, so what?’ So we had to ask her to please make us fresh correct coffees. On receiving our coffees we thanked her and she had her back to us. The other ladies there were genuinely happy to fix the order for us and responded to our thanks. Still, hate to start the day with negativity and bad energy so will not be going there again. 3 stars for food as we tried the pastries which were ok but not...
