The food is delicious and the service is excellent. Additionally, their coffee is top-notch. The prices are very reasonable and if you visit after 12:00 noon, parking in the park is free.

However, I was disappointed today. I entered the cafe and noticed a Gluten Free label on a tupperware container containing cup cakes, battenburg, and other cakes. I commented on the good selection of gluten free cakes, only to be informed that only the cup cake was actually gluten free. This meant that a GF cake was mixed in with regular cakes, increasing the risk of cross contamination. This is not typical for this establishment, but I felt it was worth mentioning as I could have easily picked a non GF cake and faced consequences. I ended up choosing a packet brownie instead. Hopefully, this was just an oversight and possibly due to new staff who may not have received allergy training yet.

My friend had tomato and sweet potato soup and a sandwich and red berry tea. Service was quick and efficient and it was great value for money. Next time I am in Elgin, I would definitely go again.

We returned there for tea and cake after we had explored Elgin. The date slice and Hawaiian slice were both tasty. The cafe was busy both times, a good indication of its popularity.

I understand this café has recently changed hands. I found it the perfect place to eat, delicious soup and sandwiches will certainly go back again. read more I understand this café has recently changed hands.
