In simpler terms, there are no actual chefs here. Nevertheless, the mushroom soup is both satisfying and straightforward. Unfortunately, the sandwich leaves much to be desired, seemingly lacking both flavor and substance, with scant amounts of shredded cheese and almost no coleslaw. The cakes look decent, but they taste like the kind we regret indulging in at roadside diners. The three-star rating is primarily due to the enthusiasm of the staff, who are truly delightful—but if only they could channel that energy into the kitchen, perhaps with the help of a Jamie Oliver or Delia Smith cookbook, we might see some real improvements.

I paid £12.95 for what amounted to just two tablespoons of overcooked rice, which was poorly presented in a small bowl that was only half full. The side salad was actually bigger than the main dish. When the girl at the register asked for my feedback, I expressed my dissatisfaction with the meal, but she simply replied, "Sorry, I'll pass it on," and went ahead to charge me the full amount. I would prefer not to leave a negative review, but the quality of the food was reminiscent of a roadside diner while the prices were those of a restaurant. Additionally, my complaint was handled carelessly. This reflects very poor customer service.

Excellent food and service; I would definitely recommend it! read more Excellent food and service; I would definitely recommend it!

The service was good, but after our meal, we had to wait a bit to get someone’s attention for coffee. Other tables were checked on, but we seemed to be overlooked. Despite this, we had a fantastic lunch—probably the best we’ve ever had. As regular customers, we will definitely return.

Great friendly service as always. thank you. read more Great friendly service as always. thank you.
