What AliAl Aswad likes about Cafe W:
The Costa which used to be here was OK, but this place is so much better. Excellent service, and a good range of drinks, cakes, and snacks, at reasonable prices. Nice location. I enjoyed a great coffee and a delicious vegan brownie here today : View all feedback. What Martin C doesn't like about Cafe W:
I have used this location several times in the past, and found things to be bearable. Went there today to enjoy a cup of tea, a bun and a read while my wife shopped. This was the worst tea experience ever and the worst cup of tea I ever tasted in my life. It was cold, insipid, and tasteless. The bun(pastry) wasn't even two inches square, admittedly a little tasty but at £2 far too expensive. Not be using this facilit... View all feedback.

I'm pretty sure drinking coffee near books makes me smarterer by osmosis so this is a great place to do a little work. A quiet atmosphere, a few plug sockets, f...

Nestled within Waterstones, a café offers a spectrum of experiences. Some patrons relish the cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and strong coffee, making it a favorite escape for reading and relaxation. Locally sourced food, delightful cakes, and a robust hot chocolate add to its charm. However, not all experiences are positive; incidents of misunderstood table etiquette and service missteps have left some frustrated. Despite this, many appreciate the ambiance and value, particularly during quieter hours. Overall, while the café excels in several areas, inconsistency in service can detract from an otherwise enjoyable visit.
