I really like this place normally - the food is delicious and the coffee very good. I've never left a bad review of a place before now but in this instance I feel I have to. I ordered an orange juice and when it arrived it was over 50% froth. I asked very politely for a replacement and the waitress seemed really quite angry. She tried to blame the machine and walked off. Having brought me another, she then told me unsmilingly that I needed to stir it (I know how to drink an orange juice!) I tried to explain that this had just been a very frothy one, but she walked off as I was speaking to her. It was so rude that it pretty much ruined my breakfast so I paid and left.
Like I said, the food is good I just think it's a shame that a valid and very polite complaint about something that should not be a big deal had to be so unpleasant. Maybe she was having a bad day but it definitely made me think twice about...

It was one of the regulars who suggested the french toast to me the first time I was there, standing undecided. He told me him and his wife go every Sunday just for it! It definitely lived up to the hype and I've since passed on the word to other locals.
My usual go-to dish is the Mix menemen. A mix of Turkish sausage, feta, tomato, spinach and eggs, it's a perfect sharing dish. It can get a bit repetitive as the dish is large, but I finish one to myself every time :)
I've never had the eggs benedict but can vouch they look tasty by sight. They also do English breakfasts, if you don't want to try something new.
It gets hot sometimes inside but thankfully they have a cute patio where you can bask in the sunlight on those nice days in...
Read moreExtremely poor service, it took us 3p minn to be able to order despite asking 3 times to get the food order noted down, kitchen was busy which was somewhat understandable, however waited for 50 minutes plus for our food to arrive when other customers that arrived and ordered later than us got their dishes before us. It also took 15 minutes from order to get the coffees on the table and after being finished, they never got taken out of the table. When the waitress appeared with the food it was the wrong order for which we had to wait even more to arrive. When approaching the staff to find out how longer would it take, rather than being apologetic about it, they responded by challenging us 'what do you want me to do?'. What it was meant to be a chilled Sunday brunch ended up being a complete dreadful experience. Food was average, definitely not...
