I made it halfway through the cup before I encountered any real hot chocolate. When I asked them to just top it up with some milk, they made a new drink instead, but it ended up being just a cup of milk with no hot chocolate in it. I paid £4.20 for that. Additionally, there were no gluten-free options available. The Americano was very bitter and nearly undrinkable. We also had to wait a long time for the one restroom. Overall, we definitely won't be coming back.

While I find the cakes a bit too sweet for my taste, my friends enjoy them. Additionally, the coffee prices are quite reasonable compared to other places nearby!

Overall, I would give it a 5-star rating! However, I do wish there was more seating available; it can get quite crowded, and I often end up taking my coffee to go.
