Food Quality

Pros:

  • "However the savouries, scones and cakes were all delicious and very fresh."
  • "We had Scottish and Veggie breakfast. Simply delicious."
  • "The cakes are fantastic both to sit in and takeaway."
  • "The food was lovely, the milkshakes were excellent and the staff friendly."
  • "Food was amazing and the decor is stunning."
  • "The Butternut Squash and Ginger Soup was really delicious served with toasted, crusty sourdough bread and butter."
  • "Delicious Breakfast, absolute perfection. Highly recommended."

Cons:

  • "Hollandaise was thin and watery, lacking flavour and also a miniscule amount."
  • "The Nutella pancakes, while beautifully presented, were dense and thick, not light and fluffy as they should be."
  • "The Eggs Benedict had watery, seriously under-done eggs and the bacon was soggy and didn't feel freshly cooked."
  • "Halloumi wasn't cooked, beetroot was out of a jar."
  • "The kids pizza was just a ciabatta with tomato puree and blobs of mozzarella, it wasn't very nice due to the puree and not worth the £6.50."
  • "The blondie was horrific I’m sorry to say. It’s akin to very dry cake - not a “blondie” at all."
  • "Cakes looked incredible but were very poor in quality (the rubbery custard pie was the worst)."

Service

Pros:

  • "Nice atmosphere and friendly staff."
  • "Staff really friendly and welcoming. Girl at the door very efficient."
  • "Relaxed setting inside the restaurant and the staff were very friendly and welcoming."
  • "Service was 1st class. We were well looked after."
  • "The staff are so polite and work extremely hard to meet your needs. They go above and beyond for their customers always."
  • "Lovely, polite, friendly and approachable staff."
  • "The staff were very friendly the service was also very good."

Cons:

  • "The three times I’ve been here there have been flies around the cakes and in the bathrooms (which were also unclean)."
  • "But, we waited 45 minutes for a milkshake and over an hour for 2 plates of pancakes."
  • "Took a while to be seated, almost felt ignored when we first arrived."
  • "It's very slow and hard to flag down staff."
  • "Today, they seemed to completely forget about us and it took over 40 minutes for two breakfast rolls which only arrived after having to remind the staff I existed."
  • "Service was slow and stressy."
  • "Unfortunately, need to say service was poor."

Ambiance and Decor

Pros:

  • "Nice, bright and tables not crushed in on top of each other."
  • "Pretty and dog friendly which is great."
  • "Lovely crockery and vibe."
  • "It looks quite small from the outside but spacious once you are in, I had the buggy with me but it wasn't in the way at all."
  • "Atmosphere was great and decoration was clean and minimalistic."
  • "Very cute bakery with plenty of spaces to sit."
  • "The surroundings were lovely."

Cons:

  • "Stood at the counter for a bit while numerous staff didn't even acknowledge us."
  • "Some work being done to either renovate or extend. This might improve the decor."
  • "We were sat outside toilet door, so close and no ‘second door’, we could smell the air freshener."
  • "The whole place seemed a bit unclean, especially the toilets."
  • "In my opinion it doesn't have enough of a cosy feel."
  • "The tables were well spaced and regularly cleaned between customers due to Covid-19."
  • "Parking is incredibly difficult with again it being very busy in the local area and you may have to park quite some distance away and walk along."

Value

Pros:

  • "Coffee and cakes delicious, a little pricy but I think you really do get what you pay for my slice of cake was enormous and the coffee was perfect."
  • "Very reasonable pricing and great choice of sweet and savoury brunch dishes!"
  • "I was happy that this was good value today."

Cons:

  • "I have to say I was absolutely astounded to pay 6.95 for 1 takeaway roll and sausage with tattie scone."
  • "Everything over priced. Milkshake was 200 maybe 250ml for 4.25."
  • "All in all overpriced for what it is."
  • "Prices are ridiculous tourist prices. £7 for pancakes and cheesecake over £4 plus more expensive if you require and extras like cream."
  • "Also £4 for a brownie is overpriced if you're only going to give tiny pieces."
  • "Our order came to £15 which is on the more expensive side so understandably your expectations will be higher."
  • "I paid 25 quid overall and I’ve had better value breakfasts at McDonald’s."
