Market Street Kitchen — Restaurant in Torridge District

Having visited previously today’s visit was really disappointing. On arrival we did not receive a warm welcome, however we sat down and ordered with a really lovely waitress. We looked forward to receiving our coffees, oranges and breakfasts. After sitting there for 30 minutes and watching people who came in after us be served their drinks and food, I went to speak to the older lady who appeared in charge (the first lady we encountered).
