Being a bit of a coffee connoisseur, I like to pride myself on knowing good coffee when I taste it. The gentleman working behind the counter was quite friendly, although his energy seemed a bit low. The coffee options were limited to Brazilian and African varieties, with the option to sample one before making a decision. I sampled the African coffee, which was surprisingly light and resembled black tea in appearance. While the taste was decent, it was too light and subtle for my liking. My espresso was also on the lighter side and required some effort to finish. Personally, I prefer my coffee to be rich, dark, and full of flavor – which is the opposite of what Liar Liar offers. Despite this, there were plenty of regular customers who seemed to enjoy the coffee. While it may not be my preferred cup of coffee, I can see why others appreciate it.

Staff uninterested in receiving what at the time, wasn't worded as a complaint. However nice atmosphere, quirky interior. Staff could be better although everyone I came across was lovely, customer sat on the table next to me commented the same. Recent reviews appear to show a decline in quality lately, sorry to hear

The cakes are also very tasty, great outdoors seating and comfy interiors for days with lousy weather! CAUTION: This establishment is operating only in the daytime. The restaurant that operates evenings is run by different people and by my experience is lacking in professionalism on all fronts.

I was changed £3.20 for a take away latte which I thought was rather an expensive treat . I will shop around next time and purchase somewhere else .
