I asked why and she said she did not know as it was a management decision. I wanted to change the note so I could tip her but the management put her in the embarrassing position of refusing my money, I am not easily embarrassed but just felt sorry for her, and also denying her a tip. As a tourist this has put me off returning to this cafe in a town where I have never had my money refused before. I know loss of my business will not make a great dent in the turnover but I am in this town a few times a year and I would imagine in the current economic climate any business would want all the custom they can get.

I have seen the restaurant much busier then today and had no problem. The service was dreadful the food was served wrong and cold six times I asked for sweeteners to be bought for our coffees. The cutlery needed changing as was dirty. Sadly I’m not sure we will be returning we are feeling disappointed

The food itself was absolutely awful. My wrap which I asked for with ketchup came with cranberry sauce. I paid for double bacon which apparently only constitutes 2 measly rashers in the entire wrap. My sons all day breakfast was nothing short of shambolic. Apparently the photo attached is supposed to be scrambled egg but honestly is a closer resemblance to a ball of sick. I will never order from here again and I want my money back!

In fact the only reason I could fault this place was that my plate had a rather large chip in it, and secondly the jacket potato didn’t have a jacket, sorry , I do like a well baked jacket on my jacket potato. The Mrs loved her wrap.
