A lovely cafe in a beautiful location. I would highly recommend the scones, they are delicious. My hot drink was lukewarm, I would have liked it hotter. Also, we couldn't get a take away coffee because they were too busy. Apparently they don't do take away drinks when they're busy.

That was the worst place I have ever eaten, I’m not even exaggerating the beef tasted off. The macaroni and cheese was actually inedible (a meal that is supposed to be for kids). They seasoned with herb that was so strong and tasted sooo bad. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND

We ordered 2 burgers (menu says medium) the meat inside was red, raw and chewy, we had to remove it and eat them without the meat. Cafe was busy, so we didn’t want to complain and stress the staff. Disappointing.

Extremely disappointed by the rude service by a female staff member here today. It’s not ok to rudely order a paying customer to sit down so abruptly while we were just figuring out how to order and pay. She then bossed around other staff in our presence who seemed just as shocked as we were. Other staff were friendly and nice this one girl however was a bully and made a scene because we were not familiar how to order and pay or where to order from.

Grumpy, incompetent staff. Went for a bite to eat on Sunday for lunch and nothing on the menu was appetising, all we wanted was eggs on GF toast, a pie, toasted sandwich or the like. Everything on the menu was weird like peanut butter cheeseburger. Keep it simple, keep it easy and quick. People are going to the gallery and dont have 5 days and 5 nights to wait for staff to move and serve you. DO NOT RECOMMEND
