The best cafe I’ve ever been to. The food was absolutely lush. Proper meat and cooked to perfection. The staff was so nice and friendly, even had the cleanest toilets. I can’t wait to go back

Staff are really friendly and polite, great service and atmosphere. Good quality food at a reasonable price. I had the chicken shish wrap with chips and it was nice. The menu is vast so will definitely be back to try something else
