I absolutely loved this coffee shop which I visited whenever I worked in Liverpool. Devastated to find that it’s closed. Thanks to Cheryl and co for the great coffee, delicious food but most of all for the warm welcome, and the lovely chats. Good luck in the future - I miss you! Penny the trainer from over the road…

Very friendly and helpful owners who serve honest food that tastes great! The cappuccino was great value for money and tasted wonderful 😊 Our breakfast mornings were always off to a good start here. We would definitely come back the next time we're here ❤️
