It's been some time since I was last in this place it was when it was called Paddington's. We sat at the table near the counter and was greeted with a warm smile and the information that it was table service. So we sat down and made ourselves comfy. Looking at the menu I would have liked a good old bacon butty but that was cooked between the hours of 8am to 11am, but then again I never asked if they would cook me that out of their stated times. It was around 13.45 hrs that we had sat down in Frothys Coffee Shop there wasn't that many customers sat down, we first ordered two lattes which didn't take long to receive and they were very hot and a good coffee strength we looked at there menu for sometime as I have food issues because of having been through chemotherapy some years ago but that's another story. My wife and I thought the prices a weebit high but after ordering, my wife had baked potato with cheddar cheese & homemade coleslaw and I had a toasted bacon, chicken, lettuce and tomato with mayonnaise. I must say it took a bit of time to get what we had ordered but in the end it was definitely worth the wait and the price as it looked fantastic and it tasted even better. Too finish this off we had two more lattes which went down just as good as the first two. The female waitresses seemed very friendly and polite, my wife & I would definitely go to Frothys Coffee Shop again. Would recommend. Also credit to the Chef working in what looked like a small kitchen and producing...
Read moreI was walking by with a take out coffee from Javawoky and thought "oooh I fancy a bacon roll". So I went in and sat with a news paper and awaited my roll. The proprietor delivered said roll and became quite aggressive that I'd brought a take out coffee from another place (which I could understand if i'd just walked in and sat drinking it without ordering anything!). I felt so chastised and patronized, like a naughty school child. I felt like saying "well refund me the £4.40 for your bacon roll and I'll just leave" but I was too shocked at being treated in such a manner. As far as i was concerned, I didn't have to go in and buy a roll from them but I did. Under normal circumstances, most people would be glad I chose to go in and spend my money in their establishment rather than just walk on by. So I chocked on my bacon roll and left. There was not even a thank you or goodbye! If that's their idea of customer service I shall not be returning. In all fairness to the bacon roll, it...
Read moreI didn't like this place. It was a claustrophobic mess with a very bad smell, especially on the lower floor in which the only way to reach it was a staircase in the middle of the café, making it bad for people requiring a wheelchair. Most of the drinks were subpar at best, with the 'iced chocolate melt' being the worst chocolate based drink I've ever had the misfortune of tasting in my life. They got lukewarm water and just poured coco powder into it. Making an awful disgusting blend full of powder. The male toilets were also very poor with dirt and mess everywhere, however, I can't comment on the female toilets. I'm sparing the café from a one star reveiw because I did not eat the food, Which people...
