What User likes about The Loft Cafe Bakery:
this little caffe serves a good selection of sweet and hearty baked goods. there is also a selection of chocolate bars. the internal escap is above the kitchen and it is bright and airy. there are several tables in an in-house with beautiful plants on the display. the personal is friendly and welcoming. dog-friendly also with bowls on the inside. View all feedback. What alibearScotland doesn't like about The Loft Cafe Bakery:
The stovies were chunks of undercooked potatoes with chunks of cheap beef floating in a broth made from stock cubes. It was absolutely disgusting. I was told that this was the traditional local way of making it, but as a local myself, I have never seen stovies prepared like this before. When I went to pay, I was not asked but rather told to add a tip onto my card. I declined. View all feedback.

This place was a little snobby and underwhelming for that reason. It felt that staff didn’t have time for the customers
