Really good quality of coffee and reasonable breakfast menu. Probably best decaf coffee i ever had. Nice quiet corner so good place of people wants to talk. Overall very pleased with the pricing however, they keep adding 10% service charge without telling us prior to billing at the till. Probably it's better if asked rather than adding already.
