First time in a Tinderbox and it will be the last an older gentleman came barging in to the store walking right into my 5year old proceded to just continue to pick up his items and order his coffee the staff raised some eyebrows at this but no one said anything to either him or me. In fact once my husband said to the gent you could have at least said excuse me he laughed and some staff members looked at my partner as if he had done something wrong. While I appreciate its not the staffs fault this man acted in such a way I feel they could have said something i own a shop and I would have expected my staff to say something about such rude behaviour in my store. I have worked in retail and have certainly challenged people with such behaviour when I have witnessed it.

It’s nice for an independent coffee shop. It had 2 gluten free cake options (strawberry slice or raspberry brownie, both looked nice). My decaf mocha was lovely!

There are no gluten free options for sandwhiches etc… so bare that in mind. Only a few cake choices!
Would go back again, the staff...

Of course ppl can't sleep in a cafe like 1 or 2hours, which I totally understand. But when you're studying,you are like so tired and mentally exhausted. I feel like it's so inhuman to not even be allowed to have a little break time. In that is where I feel doubly tired and embarrassed. What's more, if the owner could have expressed himself a little more politely, it might have been more acceptable for me. Anyway, maybe that's the rule of this cafe. I respect it but not for me. Won't be going back. The iced americano was...
