I have been a patron of this cafe for six years. Yesterday, I ordered a takeout egg and bacon sandwich. However, I was given incorrect change for my £20 note and was short changed. When I brought this to their attention, I was made to feel foolish and embarrassed. I will never return to this establishment again. I urge everyone to double check their change, especially when paying with a large note. Additionally, the sandwich was not worth the £14.70 I was charged.

I sat down at a table in the cafe, which was only half full, but was asked to move to a smaller table. I have never been asked to move in a cafe before, so I declined and decided to leave. I went to The Tea Tree Cafe instead, where I could sit wherever I wanted along with everyone else, even though it was quite busy. I don't understand the logic of refusing definite business for the sake of potential business. It was a really silly decision in my opinion.
