I made a reservation in advance and arrived a bit early, but the table was already set up which was great! The menu did not include drink options, so I had to inquire about juices and smoothies. I decided on the prawn and salmon sandwich, which reminded me of an 80s prawn cocktail. I wished there was more salmon in it, as there was only a small amount. I found it a bit pricey for the portion size, and thought it could benefit from a side of salad, chips, or crisps. My main disappointment was the slow service. The restaurant was not even busy, yet it took a long time for our order to be taken and for our drinks to arrive. In the end, we didn't even bother asking for the bill, we just went dow...
I have tried to get a seat here three times and everytime it’s been a strange experience. The last time I tried to get a seat we came inside, wasn’t even greeted by a member of staff, and when they finally came to us they told us they had no space. I’m not saying they should’ve pulled tables out of the air but we had stood awkwardly waiting for about 10 mins and it felt quite rude when we were wanting to spend money with them. My friends who have been here have said that when they’ve managed to get a table before, the service was extremely slow. I will be back to try and eat here because the food looks delish but please work on the customer service!
This charming café is hidden away near the riverbank. They offer a variety of delicious breakfast/brunch options and sandwiches. I enjoyed the food, although I would have preferred the bacon to be crispier. The main drawback was the long wait for the food. The wait staff are polite and efficient, but the small kitchen struggles to keep up with demand, resulting in slow service. It seems they may have run out of some menu items, possibly due to it being a Sunday. I would return, but only if I have plenty of time to enjoy a leisurely meal.
I went there after the great reviews, and when I arrived a girl told me I had to wait to check what table was available. There were a couple of empty tables but I could understand that as it was just me, they wanted to keep them for larger groups. After that I was completely ignored for about 10 minutes. No one came back to me to give any information, although I was the first on the queue right in front of them, so I finally left as no one cared about me. Réservez une table maintenant
Food and coffee very good. Breakfast roll was delicious. Flat White also very good. Service abysmal. I waited over 40-mins after finishing my coffee for food that was ordered at the same time. It’s a smallish kitchen, regardless, it needs another employee. Personally, I would offer a complimentary coffee as way of apology for what was a ridiculously long wait. If you have all the time in the world, I would recommend. Otherwise, look elsewhere.
This is a fantastic restaurant tucked away for brunch. Be sure to make a reservation as it was packed when we visited on a Saturday morning. The high quality of the food is the reason for its popularity. Be prepared for a wait during busy times, but take the opportunity to relax and enjoy. I particularly liked the background music, which is not something I typically pay attention to.
