They always do a wonderful smooth tasting coffee that’s probably the best around. Breakfasts are also delicious - the breakfast baps are incredible, likewise for the all day breakfasts... when I’m trying to be healthier I’ll do for the granola which is also great!

Really deserves a quick review. The staff, food and atmosphere on a rainy February day were perfect. Cosy, friendly coffee shop with excellent , well-priced sandwiches. A nice surprise.

I came here 3 days in a row during my stay because the coffee (latte) was so so good. The sausage sandwich had quality ingredients but I feel like it needs some further ingredient added to the mix to elevate it to the next level as it was a bit dry.

Always popular, always busy, both for sitting in ( with a queue!! ) and takeaways, this establishment always goes the extra mile. Very pleasant staff, a fantastic array of salads, breads, pastries, cakes and a super squash and roasted squash, chilli, garlic and thyme soup which we both had. Could be cosy but like everywhere in the current pandemic windows and doors remain open .....keep calm .....and carry on !! Excellent.

We tried the vegan passionfruit cheesecake and Corgette and lime cake today, and they were both very delicious! This is a nice place to enjoy a coffee and cake and just watch the world go by.

Perfect space to stop for brunch before heading to the Clifton Suspension Bridge. Great selection of brunch dishes, fresh pastries, and hot drinks. We would recommend the fresh yogurt bowl and the spicy homemade beans on toast! Lovely staff and clean seating area.
