We didn't expect to find such a nice cafe walking down the High Street in Chesham, so I feel compelled to write a review. The place was nicely decorated, creating a calm and chill vibe. We ordered a turmeric coffee latte that was beautifully presented, while the lemon and ginger tea was packed with slices of fresh lemon and ginger.

I said I would leave and wanted a refund and they tried to still charge me for my drinks! We had been in the establishment about 4 minutes!
Awful! Horrendous! Worst place I have ever been! I think it was the owner who said this to us and I hope she feels worse than she made my wife who was...
