Description

The cafe offers vegan options but falls short with cold French toast and subpar eggs benedict. Beautiful views with a disappointing kitchen effort. On the other hand, Ambience is praised for its warm service and delicious food, particularly the seafood pizza and steak pie. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and lovely decor make for a wonderful dining experience. Overall, a hit or miss choice in Bute- with some choosing to return for the excellent food and service while others opt out due to disappointing dishes.

First time diner, good meal, lots of choices on today's specials. Good portion sizes. Good value for money. A big shout out to Hailey , who served us today. Great service and couldn't do enough for us. My wife is a wheelchair user and access wasn't a problem. Maybe a board or better signage with daily specials on would be good. As the window had basic choices, but they do a lot more and need to let people know. A really good experience and definitely will return. Thanks

A friendly wee cafe with a huge specials menu. No issue catering for coeliacs In fact, it had been recommended on a coeliac facebook page. We ate lunch there twice and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Recommended by the Taverna barmaid. Best chilli cheese calzone ever! Very helpful and polite waitress called Haley!

Not a 'fancy cafe ', furnishings somewhat basic, but the specials menu is surprisingly extensive with lots of choice. It 's the food, cooking and presentation which make this a special little place. The prices are reasonable too, especially given the quality of the food. Staff are very attentive and friendly.
