Feedback
Food is obviously more expensive than it used to be and comes without garnishes now so you have to buy things to go with say the burger. They didn’t have the first choice 3 bean chilli. Service was very slow and it wasn’t very busy- 30 mins for 2 burgers. Disappointing- we used to love it before the pandemic.
Visited waitrose cafe with the wife for a quick bite, half full as joined queue of 2. 10 mins later with grumbling in front on how long it was taking I was next but one. Another 6/8 mins and we ain't moved!! Text my good lady in restaurant to say we best give it a miss. I just can't understand how hard it is to serve a few people a tea and bun etc... No staff seemed to be rushing, nobody was making people welcome or informed and I received no feedback from instore after been told I would(e mailed). I had a deli for 15 yrs and its shocking to see how things are run. Worst experience in any cafe on not even getting served only gave 1 as had to.
Lisa and Helen are back in the cafe making the perfect drinks. Their lattes, flat whites and cappuccinos are the best I’ve ever had. Amazing service from them both as well.
Nice place to sit, but the full English was pretty underwhelming. Service: Dine in Meal type: Brunch Price per person: £1–10 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Vegetarian options: The vegetarian breakfast looked significantly better than the standard full english
