When it arrived it was clearly burnt, we're talking charcoal around the edges! I politely asked for a fresh piece, but not so well done, the front-of-house staff were very accommodating and kindly brought some fresh toast. It looked perfect but unfortunately tasted burnt, upon turning the toast over it was burnt on the other side. I'm a great believer in sharing my good and bad experiences, provided you're polite and fair it gives a genuine opportunity for business owners to improve their products and services. Someone had clearly burnt it for a second time and tried to get away with it by turning both pieces over so that the burnt side wasn't visible. I wasn't asked if everything was okay while at the table or at the till when paying.

Searching for somewhere to have a coffee, we saw an advertisement board for Rafikis. That will do we thought, expecting just another cafe but far from it. The place was buzzing, great music, waitresses dashing about in an extraordinary and a tremendous atmosphere. Coffee was great and Rafikis is strongly recommended. I wish I had taken my camera!

Delicious, healthy and unique. Popped in our way heading back up north from the coast and wanted something other than a bacon cob or services and found this gem... read more Delicious, healthy and unique. Popped in our way heading back up north from the coast and wanted something other than a bacon cob or services and found this gem! Had two takeaway baguettes one vegan, both were delicious and packed full of yummy fillings, lovely vibe wish we could have stayed for a dine in, next time!
