First class Italian style caf/bistro. Very nice menu with very friendly service. Poached eggs were very tasty with runny yokes which I prefer.

Service is so slow. Placing an order at the counter fine but then waiting for 10 mins for the ordered coffee and then a further 10 mins on top of that for a warmed scone? Staff pleasant enough but wont be going back.

Absolutely lovely. Was helped by a fab customer getting my mam in as she is in a wheelchair.. tea and coffee were the best as was the beef dip x the lovely young man who works there helped us out when we left. It's the little acts of kindness like this that mean so very much ! Will definitely be back. Thanks again xx
