Daisy Chain Deli — Restaurant in England

I’ve been a loyal customer in the area for over five years and have always made a conscious effort to support local businesses. It’s really disappointing to say that I won’t be returning to this café after repeatedly experiencing what feels like unwelcoming and passive-aggressive service—specifically from one member of staff.

On my most recent visit (the third time this has happened), my takeaway order was handed over without a smile, a thank you, or even a word. It was simply placed down abruptly on the counter, and I was left feeling invisible. At first, I tried to brush it off, wondering if I was being too sensitive. But after it happening again and again, it’s clear it’s not just in my head.

As someone who values community and genuinely enjoys supporting independent cafes, it’s sad to feel pushed out of a space that once felt welcoming.

Will definitely be back again soon, would be an idea to reserve a table as it can get busy in the morning.

Staff were friendly, helpful and polite. Lots of tables and chairs inside and a few outside or under a shelter to the right of the shop. Will come again and highly...

A little gem in Coalpit Heath. We went out for a quick coffee while staying at our daughters place and discovered Daisy Chain. Good coffee, great cake selection and a breakfast and lunch menu that we will be back to explore. As we left we bought a couple of pastries for our lunch. All the tables were already reserved which points to its popularity. Friendly staff and good food and drink make for the perfect...
