On top of that, there's the actual food - I tried the breakfast salad, which involved an inventive combination of tri-colour quinoa, baby tomatoes, roasted beetroot, crispy tortilla chips, slabs of fried haloumi and a poached egg. Could have done with a touch more spice (some chilli or herbs wouldn't have gone astray), but all in all, it was pretty damn delicious. And the coffee was one of the best I've had. Would return.

They did not acknowledge us when we walked in, after a few minutes of waiting had to go up to the barista to ask whether they were still open. It was 2:30pm, close time at 4. It seemed like all they wanted to do was pack up and avoid serving us. There was barely anyone in there but it still took them almost 10 minutes to take our coffee order. Ended up just getting coffee and a very overpriced h&c croissant. Will not be going back.

Some orders were mixed up and there was inconsistency with the poached eggs, but the coffee service was excellent. Despite the hiccups, I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
