I wasn’t impressed with this place, I was looking for a small cozy cafe, my “to go” cafe with a good service and coffee where I can spend a couple of hrs working on my laptop and enjoying my lunch, but it seems I will continue looking. Checked this out only because of high rating on Google.
First negative point is not sure people with laptops are welcome there, at least doesn’t feel this way, second point is I felt staff are too busy getting home on time which they prioritise above customer satisfaction.

The member of staff who served me asked for my card, as the machine required this. I explained that I didn't have it. Unfortunately the member of staff became quite rude, stating that "you don't have the money to pay" and "I don't know what you aren't understanding about this". So we left without buying anything and went to Wetherspoons, where my phone was able to purchase a pint of Guinness with no problem at all!...
