Alfie's Vintage Market is fantastic and definitely worth a visit, but sadly the service at the Roof Top Kitchen is abysmal to say the least.
Having waited at a table, which hadn't been cleared, for near on 20 minutes, I eventually went inside to ask if I needed to order inside. I was told someone would come and take my order. After another 5 mins, someone finally partially cleared the table and took my order, only to return 5 minutes later to tell me that what I'd ordered was no longer available!
At this point I decided to go elsewhere. The staff's reasoning was that they were busy, which hardly seemed a valid excuse given three tables which were occupied after I arrived were served before me.
While I will definitely visit the market again, I will give the cafe a miss! One star is for the rooftop...

Brunch, lunch, beers, wine, tea, coffee, soups, cakes, alternatives to dairy milk is available and a menu comprising if locally sourced ingredients.
