I visited yesterday for a takeaway and was happy to see the restaurant bustling with customers. Despite it being busy during lunchtime, I had no hesitation in requesting a takeaway coffee. I plan on returning for a sit-down lunch soon and I hope the new owner will consider hosting occasional evening events to maintain the Italian atmosphere.

He refused to serve us simply because we were wearing shirts with business logos on them, insisting we either take a sandwich to go or leave. This experience was both shocking and embarrassing, especially considering we frequent restaurants and hotels regularly.

We decided to try the chicken club and were pleasantly surprised by how substantial and tasty it was, served with a good side salad. The cafe also offers a decent selection of hot food that looks very appetizing. We will definitely be returning to this cafe in the future.
