Ambience and Decor

Pros:

Cons:

• "There is only one teeny tiny, filthy toilet that any one who has visited it can agree that is just inadequate."

• "The hot chocolate was enormous but again lacked taste."
• "Very noisy and cold atmosphere, I wouldn’t go here unless it was for a drink and cake vibe but not actual food."
• "The service was irritatingly non-responsive. Don’t expect the waitresses will after you."
