What diners say
Big couches, big windows, big flavours John. Simple but effective, there’s loads of seats to sit in, loads of coffee to sip on and plenty cold drinks in the fridge. Service was slick and quick. Overall nice wee spot for a coffee cheers :)

Very nice coffee & pastries (had the pastel de nata, just delicious). Great staff! Do note that is a very much a cafe for people working or students, so tables can be occupied for a while, leaving little space for walk-ins wanting a quick coffee & pastry.

Nice café in former pub. Big windows, and MoMA oat milk is available which is great as it is gluten free. There is also a dairy free porridge with gluten free oats.

Horrible service. The girl with brown hair in a red jumper just starred at me as I said hi how are you, no hello or anything just waited for me to order. Then there were three of them standing doing nothing taking a few minutes to start making the coffee. There was definitely the same jug used to have made chai or something in it because my coffee tasted like chai. Don’t waste your money
