What Jtbalbion doesn't like about No 1 Polsloe:
Me and my friend came in to study, with one of us buying a coffee. The cafe was almost empty during the afternoon but we were bluntly asked to leave because one of us wasn’t buying a drink. This would be understandable during peak times where there may be long queues for a table or even just a drink. Because of this poor service it is likely we will not be returning. Not the place for students to study! View all feedback. What User likes about No 1 Polsloe:
Really lovely place. Food is well priced and very tasty. Staff are really friendly. Prosecco with your breakfast is a wonderful addition. Would recommend to everyone. View all feedback.
