Lovely place. Shame they have changed the cafe bit because of covid.
Was still nice to meet a friend for a catch up and enjoy the food.

Very poor food, the bread was not fresh tasting, the pre made Napoli pizza base was thick and not even warmed through and the Salami was just warmed not cooked, not good at all. I was expecting near restaurant standard but it wasn't quality or value at 7. Its a corner cafe. I guess everyones doing their best but it could offer so much more if the management and owners took a reality check on the quality and menu.

Potential to be a nice place, its a Deli with Greasy-spoon clientle. The staff deserve better customers.
Lavazza crema aroma coffee would be better than the bitter over roast coffee that would require sugar. Lovely staff, lovely environment but I chose to take away rather than sit amongst the oddball customers.
