Brew Babu - Réserver une table

We were visiting Oundle for the first time and wanted tea and cake. My wife was craving a flapjack or granola cake and this place had both. In fairness the cakes were excellent (I had an almond slice). But the service was lamentable. Even when I was ordering it was clear that the girl serving me couldn’t care less. The tea took ages and they forgot the cake, and it was hardly a complex order and there was no queue. And because they use trendy teapots it was impossible to get anything other than very weak tea, too weak even for me and I am notorious for liking weak tea.

This was our first visit here. The coffee shop has an interesting and varied selection of dishes and drinks on the menu. Our lunch was beautifully presented and delicious. Well done to the chef.

Bring back the old milkshakes please.

I ordered a crayfish open sandwich and a cold americano. After a long delay my coffee arrived, very watery and tasteless . Finally after an hour got my lunch, crayfish open sandwich. Soggy bread, little salad and a few crisps, hardly worth £9.95. Disgusting single toilet. Never again!
