Their coffee is some of the best I've ever had in my life, and I'd eat their pastries every morning if I could. Their signature biscuit sandwiches though proved a bit much for me; I couldn't get my mouth around them they were so tall, they were incredibly messy to eat, and the flavour was just slightly lacking. Make sure to go to the back patio when you eat here. It's past the kitchen, through the hallway that looks like you shouldn't go there, but it puts you in a beautiful wooden terrace area that's quiet and cool. Also, GET THEIR COFFEE.

Very pricey.The tea biscuits were heavy and were dry unless you put jam and butter on them.The fruit pie didn't have a flaky crust - it was smooth and bland tasting. The filling was fruity and sweet so that was good. It cost almost 6.00. Again, pricey... and not worth that in that the crust wasn't like a pie.
