Nice little café. i have gone there in the morning for their very good eggs benedict until last Friday when I added sausages on my breakfast. It turned out they fried up pork sausages in the same oil that they fried up the merguez made of lamb. I am intolerant of lamb and goat cheese. It makes me sick immediately. Unfortunately, when I cut the sausages and put it in my mouth, I was shocked it tasted like lamb (as lamb fat is very strong so permeates the pork sausages during the frying process) but I couldnt spit out in front of the people i was sat with. I suddenly felt sick and had to reach out for some water. It was an awful feeling. Tbf, when i mentioned it to the waiter, he confirmed the sausages were fried in lamb oil but did not show any consideration of me coming to him feeling sick! Just an awful experience. Imagine the other way around, that for religious purposes I don't eat pork but yet the merguez are fried in the same oil as pork. This is something your management must look into so you don't offend anyone else...

However the staff are lovely, the flavours are good, food and drinks come quickly and my partners meal...

Looked great too. I can see why people say this is their staple brunch place. Some eggs hollandaise came out for the table next to us and they looked gorgeous! Made me regret not getting that too.
We enjoyed our meal greatly. They did have a new member of staff that was struggling with table numbers and got some orders confused. Also the walk space down the centr was quite narrow and People bumped into my fiancée very frequently as we ate and they passed through.
Aside from that I think it's rating is very...
