I loved where and how it was. Lots of character and clean where it needs to be. Renovations need in places. The cafe itself had indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the Boating pool. Lots of food on offer and everything I saw looked good. I had 2 of their bacon baps and they lived up to their reputation, perfectly cooked and very fresh baps too. Salvas order was jacket potato with tuna and sweetcorn with a side of cheesey chips , as normally jackets are not too big. Wrong, it was a huge well filled potato, he struggled to finish.

This time we ordered cheese sandwich for our son, and they brought him the wrong fillings. Our bacon we asked the server for no rind but they brought it out ignoring the request then when I mentioned it, they edited one half of the sandwich but didn't bother doing the rest, I wasn't going to mention it again.
