I went last weekend with some friends for a late breakfast. Food was nice! Two things annoyed me a little though: 1: everything we were served was given to us on/in disposable plates/cups, and then thrown away in a bin outside directly in front of us. Seems a real shame for such a nice bakery to be acting so unsustainably 2: we ordered a salad which came pre-sealed in a box (a little meal-deal-ish tbh) and was very small for the money Food was great, people working there were lovely...but please look at the disposable stuff again. Really made the whole experience feel worth much less than it ought to deserve could easily be :-)
