I usually go to the establishment next door but was full to the brim now I know why this place had lots of spare tables!!
I now khow why the croissant tasted like a supermarket one I saw a man delivery 3 bags of Tesco food to the cafe!!. Lastly the waitresses don't seem to give a damn about customer services as they just shrugged their shoulders when we and the table next to us asked about our coffees.
