Went here in mid-December. Drove 40 minutes after seeing social media posts about it only to have the worst brunch experience. It was absolutely freezing in there. The cafe is tiny and they’ve put in so many tables in such a small space so it literally feels like you’re sitting at the same table as strangers - forget having a conversation in here unless you don’t mind strangers listening in. We were seated at the back of the cafe, next to some doors which were opened and closed several times and we didn’t notice just how cold it was and would continue to get until we’d already placed our order. Every single guest in the cafe was sat there with their coats and scarves on eating as quickly as they could - definitely not an enjoyable brunch experience. The food arrived and was cold within minutes so can’t comment on the taste, other than to say, I ate cold food that should’ve been warm and when mentioning this to the staff, they only offered to reheat the food - as if I’d want to eat reheated food that would only go cold again within minutes. When I complained about the cold, the staff literally told me that I was the only one complaining even though they agreed that it was cold and even after I pointed out that every single diner was sat there in their coats and scarves. Anyway, I was offered nothing for this awful experience. I went in and left, all within 45 minutes - maybe keeping the cafe cold is just a tactic to make sure people come and go as quickly as possible so the next customers can be seated. I paid the full extortionate price for cold mediocre food and left with my feet feeling like they’d been encased in...
Read moreI came here with my family for brunch. We travelled a good 10 miles. So this had to be worth the travel.
We went on a Saturday at 2 pm and easily found a space. I was worried that there would be a queue but there wasn't even though it was very busy inside.
It's not a massive cafe but they have done well given the space. Even though the tables are placed close to each other, they are laid out in a way where you still feel you are separated sufficiently. The decor, seating and ambience are welcoming and comfy.
We had to wait 30 minutes before our order arrived. That's a little too long in my opinion and that's why I gave it a 4/5 star.
We ordered the Mediterranean breakfast, pancakes, eggs benedict, oreo milkshake, pink tea and some cappuccino.
My very picky son gave the pancakes 10/10 and silently chomped away, enjoying the mixture of sweet and savoury items on his plate. It appeared to be a platter of pancakes, eggs, rashers and fruit.
My daughter enjoyed her egg benedict and liked the fact that the waitress gave her the option of a runny or set yolk.
My wife and I ordered the Mediterranean option which had 2 eggs, 2 beef sausages, olives, a selection of halloumi and white cheese, fries, spring roll and salad. It was of good quality and well-presented.
The staff were well mannered and always smiling.
All in all, it was a trip worth our while and I would visit this place again. What was also very nice is that just across the road, there is a nice Islamic bookshop that has a huge variety of gifts, literature and clothing. So we decided to do a quick...
Read moreI ordered the full cobbler which consists of... 2x beef sausages, 2x turkey rashers, eggs, toast, beans, 2x hashbrowns, mushrooms and 🍅's. This breakfast is the best breakfast I've ever had in the UK. It was absolutely faultless 👏🏼👏🏼. The beef sausages are the best ones I've ever had because it was packed full of flavour and it did not taste dry at all. It was cooked perfectly and so were the turkey rashers. They, too, are the best ones I've ever had because it was so meaty and seasoned so well! 👌🏼👌🏼. The scrambled eggs were absolutely delicious and the hashbrowns had way more substance than other hashbrowns and even the mushrooms were seasoned beautifully! I absolutely loved it as well as the cherry tomatoes, (just wish they gave more beans🤣). For dessert, I ordered the churros with dulche de leche sauce & icecream. The churros were overcooked but still edible. The aroma of the dulche de leche sauce was absolutely irresistible with the ice cream and if it wasn't for this, I don't think my sis & I would have finished the churros without it🤤. The coffee was standard but the strawberry mojito was very refreshing & I really enjoyed it👌🏼. Overall, their breakfast is amazing and I can see why there is sucha big hype over it😍 because it's absolutely worth it. The cafe itself is very small but luckily, we didn't have to wait that long as we sat outside but if you were to visit over the weekend, prepare to wait 45 minutes or so. The service was lovely and efficient. They were attentive and polite. It is quite far and I hope they...
