Had a gluten free version of the Satay vegetables Baguette (which is vegan) which cost £6.90. It was generously filled with roasted vegetables like peppers and courgettes. Though there was not much of a 'satay' taste, it was yummy and I liked the fact that the gluten free bread had seeds in it rather than being white bread. I asked for it to be toasted and I can recommend. It was warm and filling and wholesome. Gluten free bread is smaller than the gluten full bread, but this is to be expected everywhere and it was made up for by the generous amount of filling. Lovely service and a great location. They had lots of unique food options on the menu which I haven't see in any other cafe, and I loved the creativity and choice. They have jacket potatoes and salad options too.

Price was OK, location is good, the place itself is a little...

The wrong order came but there was back and forth between wait staff and myself over what the order was which was just odd. The cups for tea were not clean, I asked for a clean one but was met with hostility. When the drinks came most of the boiling water from the teapot was poored on the table. This is hazardous and could have been poured on a customer. The woman serving was holding the glass for water underneath her arm - unhygenic and unprofessional. All of this could have been avoided if basic care was taken by bringing drinks on a tray. The food was average at best. I noticed a number of customers asking to be served after waiting prolonged periods. It was a Saturday around 1pm but there were...
