The coffee and cakes and food are good at a fair price. It's now May 2025 and the electronic screens have gone, so you can at least discuss choices with the staff. The cafe has been redecorated which is nice. The menu is still not as comprehensive as it once was, and you can't make changes, well, no significant changes. Free WiFi works fine, good, because mobile coverage is poor away from the windows. Toilets are clean.

Good for a quick coffee and a slice of cake. Service can be slow at times. The new ordering system is an improvement over the past queue system and should improve service times.

Excellent fresh and delicious food at good prices. We’re obsessed with the French toast and rainbow fritters.
