I requested a takeaway afternoon tea for a friend's birthday celebration. I needed one standard and one gluten-free. The teas were packed separately, no chance of cross-contamination. The food was of a very good quality, sandwiches and savoury pastries as well as scone and a selection of cakes. The gluten-free sandwiches and cakes were excellent. Highly recommended.

I like this cafe for its atmosphere and friendliness and good coffee. Had breakfast here a few times as its local to me. My only small complaint is my poached eggs are always overcooked. So eggs a 2 star but overall experience 4 stars.
