Really nice bagels, short menu and fairly good coffee. When working in Sheffield it's a "treat lunch" rather than a daily thing. Despite the prices it always seems fairly busy, but the service is ambulatory rather than "at pace"? Its OK but the confines of the ground floor make it awkward waiting for your order? Given the cost of energy and the fact it's an old building it's perhaps not surprising the lower floor seating area is cold in winter, definitely "coat on". The seating area is a bit too student bedsit for my liking with it's mismatched cast off furnishings, it's a space that could be so much better with a little cool crisp Danish design vibes and a bit of hygge!
Personal preferences aside, treat yourself to a bakery bagel generously filled with tasty ingredients.....

It's effectively a different product of a level of quality incomparable to the common muck that 'just does the job.
And that's why you should get your coffee from Albies, terrific coffee that makes you reassess why you ever drink anything else.
They haven't paid me to write this, I'm just sat here basking in the glow of an...
