Café De Paris — Restaurant in England

Would have liked it to have been a welcoming experience as it looked lovely and cosy all tucked away down the alleyway... But we left annoyed that we wasted our money there. And disgusted that they had poor hygiene as they were stroking dogs then serving food without washing their hands!! The reason we went was to have a treat with tea and cake... The tea was awful... A tea bag tea - in a pot at least, but would have been far better to have had loose tea! Then the cake we ordered wasn't available and we weren't told until they were serving us the cakes so one of us had to miss out... The cakes we did eat were awful. A complete waste of money!

I believe this café has the potential to be nice however, this was unfortunately not reflected in our experience. The atmosphere inside was dark and small. I am not sure if there was a staffing issue but we couldn’t find any staff. We were not greeted when we arrived and after waiting for a member of staff, we had to go searching for our own menus. We saw two elderly gentlemen having to call over a waiter to place their order as they appear to have been forgotten about. The prices are very high, even for Nantwich, with just a baguette being £10. Instead we decided to leave, finding a cheaper...
