Description

The Waitrose Formby cafe offers a mixed experience, with some customers praising the friendly staff and quality food, while others highlight issues with cleanliness and equipment maintenance. The atmosphere is described as slow-paced and relaxed, with good seating options both inside and outside. The coffee is particularly well received, being seen as a great alternative to the typical chain options. While some customers mention inconsistencies in food availability and cleanliness, others appreciate the convenience of the cafe's separate entrance. Overall, the cafe seems to have potential, but improvements could be made in terms of staff attitudes and facility maintenance.

Often come here to grab a coffee and study. Staff are absolutely lovely and the coffee is great. Almond croissants are incredible!

It’s a small coffee shop in a supermarket . Good seating and a slow moving cafe . It’s not fast moving but that’s the point . Some seating outside and some booths . Good for a coffee , WiFi and a light bite .

The coffee at this restaurant is excellent and a wonderful option instead of the typical Costa and Nero. It has its own entrance, making it convenient for customers to access without having to go through the store. This is a handy feature for us, as we come here at least twice a week.

I used to go in the café a long time ago after shopping, always had a toastie with a small salad and tea or coffee. The last time I went in the café I handed the toastie to the assistant who did the tea, and I asked if you still got the small salad with the toastie, no we are not allowed to do it, So, I said I didn't want the toastie, she said I've put it on now you will have to have it. No I won't and you can take the tea back as well. so I didn't have anything and havn't been back in the café since

I do not usually do reviews of in-store cafes as I feel that for the most part they will all follow a similar pattern. However there are occasions when expectations are exceeded; in which case praise is due. There are other occasions when the opposite occurs, as with this, my first visit to a Waitrose cafe after a chance meeting with a friend.
