I had never been here before Lovely atmosphere and managed to get a seat near the window as it was mid week. Not a good start As it was very hot outside I wanted a cold drink Asked for one of my favourite drinks and they did not have it in stock although it was on the menu. After asking for two other drinks which were “out of stock” whilst deciding on the drink that they actually had the waitress decided to serve someone else. Really sorry but I was still going through the list of drinks at the time so I pointed out that I was still in the middle of being served . I settled for a sandwich but was not told what bread I was getting !! So not a good start really Shame as the lunch...
