"Food is so bland and low quality it's inedible."
"Frozen and re-heated fruit, a really weird English breakfast (eggs were well overcooked)."

Cons:
"It is rather crowded at peak times though and the number of tables in the place is possibly over ambitious."
"Dirty plates were left on the tables around us on other people's tables hours after they had gone and the entire time we were there."
"The building works and drilling from the back of the cafe and the shouting of trades or staff just added to the experience..."
"Would not recommend going here if you are hungry! Such a shame as the idea is brilliant but the execution is poor."
"Wow what a bad atmosphere!"
"Space is a little tight, especially in front of the entrance."
"Atrocious service deserves no stars!!"
