Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The food is super fresh and tasty and the location is like a greenhouse full of plants and a warm atmosphere."
  • "I did enjoy the food however I believe these dishes are not hard to make considering the price."
  • "The food was up to a high standard. Although the pancakes did come with mascarpone cheese and a berry jam, and after a while the cheese made me feel a bit ill."
  • "The brunch itself was great. The vegetarian breakfast was tasty and the harissa cakes in their own right were great."

  • "The food took a long time to arrive, and it was ok you can eat better in other places with less price."
  • "The atmosphere and interiors is obviously gorgeous and keeping up with the grind aesthetic, however, the food at dinner didn't really match that."
  • "Understandably you couldn't sit inside, but they took each customer in one by one as per covid rules with masks."
  • "The french toast was so fluffy and creamy but had very little sugar and definitely needed more syrup."
  • "Food was ok, nothing special for a coffee shop the menu is quite extensive however the extras which you can add to your dish are SO overpriced at Β£3.00 for a few slices of mushroom!"
  • "Clearly ran out of Burrata and replaced it with mozzarella. Dessert was very good however."
  • "The coffee is good but the food was shockingly disappointing. Lacked flavor and seemed like it was rushed to the plate."

  • "The garden area was COVERED in cobwebs so I highly suggest this outside area gets maintained asap."

  • "The only thing I would say is as a personal preference, the coffee is not the best..it is very strong/bitter but that is my preference."
