What oliverpU7149QV doesn't like about Folk Cafe:
This cafe is fantastic, with consistently delicious lunches and a charming atmosphere. Unfortunately, the coffee was a major letdown. It's disappointing because everything else about this place is top-notch. I've had better instant coffee than what was served today. View all feedback. What Andrew C likes about Folk Cafe:

Folk Café offers a vibrant dining experience marked by its delicious food and lively atmosphere. Diners rave about menu highlights like the scotch egg and fish finger sandwich, with many appreciating the attentive and friendly service. However, some guests have noted drawbacks, including lengthy wait times during busy periods, uncomfortable seating for elderly patrons, and loud acoustics that can hinder conversation. While coffee quality has garnered mixed reviews, afternoon tea options impress, showcasing fresh, homemade delights. Overall, despite a few concerns, Folk Café remains a popular choice for enjoyable meals and gatherings.
