Food Quality
Pros:
"Big, and I mean BIG portions, waffles are enormous and sinfully loaded with chocolate/caramel/different toppings."
"Gorgeous bubble waffles, nice coffee and yummy bubble tea."
"The most tastless milkshake I've ever had, it was basically 90% milk! No flavour or thickness at all."
"Had fantastic Karak Chai and Waffles here. The service was excellent and very accommodating."
"The best, awesome waffles (my 12 yo connoisseur is adamant about it, and she knows her waffles). Beautiful presentation, very tasty, super crispy, strawberries full of flavour."
Cons:
"The waffles were overpriced but named after famous scientists, a nice little touch."
"The bubble tea was awful - the tea wasn't fragrant and the pearls were tasteless too."
"VERY expensive for what it was and not nice at all. Chocolate sauce was tasteless and my strawberry topping (worth £1.20) was only a few small slices of strawberry."
"The most tastless milkshake I've ever had, it was basically 90% milk! No flavour or thickness at all."
"The bubble tea is the worst that I ever tried! Made me sick! Watery and not sweet and hot when it's supposed to be cold!"
Service and Staff
Pros:
"Nice and friendly staff. They were kind to let us stay and chat for quite a long time after we were done with our food. Thank you!"
"The staff are really friendly and have a good sense of humour."
"One thing I found surprising: the staff sanitised his hand before touching every single thing!! Impressed!!"
"The employees are extremely nice and welcoming."
"Quality customer service by the lad (who said his name was Josh). Offered me good options to complement my food."
Cons:
"Service seemed a bit odd. Seemed a bit unfriendly with a weird vibe inside."
"The staff were quite relaxed and slow, even with a lot of people waiting."
"Awful experience due only to one of your staff. She was the manager in charge when I came to your shop with my daughters last Sunday."
"One ran out crying, one couldn’t decide what stock they did or didn’t have, one turning away customers as they didn’t know how to make the waffles on the menu."
"The guy kept coming out trying to pair drinks with tables? There seemed to be no system to link a drink with a table."
Ambiance and Atmosphere
Pros:
"I LOVE THE THEME AND DECORATION OF THIS PLACE SO MUCH BECAUSE THEY HAVE CAMBRIDGE SCIENTIST MENU!!"
"An absolutely lovely atmosphere, the loud music, chilled vibe and Levy made us feel welcome."
"A great cafe to sit and have a drink or some ice cream waffles. One of the few places you can grab boba tea and eat inside."
"Wonderful and cosy cafe. Very accommodating! Delicious bubble waffle and lovely mango bubble tea."
"Fab little tea shop, my kids loved the bubble tea and Hamza was great with them making sure they enjoyed the taste!"
Cons:
"It's located in the heart of Cambridge. The food served is delicious & is of reasonable price. Their staff is so welcoming. One of the attractive features is they offer some delicacies for trial."
"The inside of the shop was incredible stuffy and smelly with friends of the cashier smoking and vaping."
"Cleanliness was clearly bottom priority as all the surfaces were filthy, bottles had hardened drippings down the sides and waffle irons had a large collection of waffle debris left on/under them."
"Place was nice but the employee left my order to last and I was the first one to order and I didn’t even get what I wanted (mango boba) but instead got a peach boba."
"This place is so disorganized, the guy kept coming out trying to pair drinks with tables? There seemed to be no system to link a drink with a table."
Value for Money
Pros:
"Weirdly cheaper than everywhere else but much tastier."
"Overall the place is small but the taste is really good, the service as mentioned is really good and the value for money is very positive."
"Milkshakes are a perfect price especially for the size of them."
"Had fantastic Karak Chai and Waffles here... great value for money when you get a combo."
"Great service very friendly, Hamza the worker catered to our every needs made us beautiful and tasty Milkshakes."
Cons:
"The waffles were overpriced but named after famous scientists, a nice little touch."
"VERY expensive for what it was and not nice at all."
"Ordered frozen yogurt, one of the more expensive options on the menu, and it was the most ridiculously small portion. About three mouthfuls for £4."
"Ordered bubble tea and was very disappointed as my 'hot' bubble tea was cold, not mixed and very watery - not to mention very expensive."
"I am appalled by the standards at this place. The food took so long to get to me, not to mention it wasn’t worth the wait."
