What Rachel Howard likes about Cafe Des Amis:
Perfect thanks for a great experience I didn't get the waitresses name she has coloured hair and she was amazing and a credit to your team she was efficient and helpful and very attentive keep her!!! View all feedback. What LizzyMic doesn't like about Cafe Des Amis:
My friends nachos came with no guacamole, she didn’t enjoy the meal. The tostado never ordered one before never will again. Roasted Mediterranean veg?! Er?…Hard sweet potato ? barely roasted ‘anything’ . It was surrounded by a strange sauce, supposed to be green pepper. not good. Amidst this was one lonely cube of feta with a blob of pesto on it it did not work, it was horrible, don’t order it. View all feedback.
