Went for lunch with a friend. Used to visit a lot but a few years ago the prices started to creep up and felt other places offered better coffee and more imaginative food options at more reasonable prices.

Small bowls of soup, slices of cake were not large by any means. I had a slice of cheesecake and was charged £6 for a small slice. My husband complained. About his Victoria songe as it was stale!

On the very few occasions I have visited this coffee shop, I have been shocked and horrified at the cost of a coffee. Served in a tiny cup and over £3.00 is ridiculous !! I expect a MUG of coffee for this price ! Staff not always friendly, with some clearly acting like they would rather be elsewhere. Shame because it’s nice and clean but sadly lacking finesse and atmosphere.
