What Loyce Witting doesn't like about The Library Cafe:
Chock full, very busy, and agree with others the layout is terrible re the ordering line and the wait staff clashing.  Moderately expensive, but food was lovely.  Had the chicken focaccia, and the vegetarian lasagne with a choice of 4 salads, had the beetroot salad.  Hot chocolate was yum if a little bitter, but I won't be adding sugar to my hot chocolate.  Not too bad of a wait considering how bu...

The restaurant offers a mixed experience, with some customers enjoying delicious food and friendly service, while others complain about cold drinks and declining quality. One reviewer noted the disappointing experience of waiting a long time for coffee, encountering dry cakes, and encountering absent management. Another customer praised the staff for being helpful and friendly during their visit for breakfast. Some customers enjoyed the food but found the base of the pizza to be average. The Library Café received high praise for its service, atmosphere, and tasty food offerings, with staff going above and beyond to accommodate dietary requirements. Coffee was consistently praised by multiple customers as being excellent. Overall, the restaurant seems to have a mix of positive and negative reviews but stands out for its warm and attentive staff and delicious coffee.
