Reviews
"Both my friend and I had the same that was on the menu the fruit platter as I wanted to eat something healthier and it was really filling and the latte was a very welcoming warm drink. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I would certainly go back to try something else on the menu"
"I couldn't tell you about the quality of the food or drink in this cafe. I was planning on having lunch here before attending an event in the church, but the prices were so high I didn't bother! The sandwiches start at £6 (except a bacon sandwich is £5) jacket potatoes at £8 and although the coffees seem reasonably priced, they're much smaller than an average coffee shop. The sign inside the door asks you to wait to be seated, so I stood there looking expectantly at the several staff in the kitchen area and waited. Several of them looked at me, and then ignored me. Eventually, after about 5 minutes a young girl collecting plates asked if I wanted a table, but by that time I'd seen the prices, told her no thank you and left. I felt like they'd taken one look at me and judged me as not worthy, that they didn't want me there so they sent the lowest-ranking worker to attend to me. Considering this cafe is in a church, I expected to be made welcome and the prices to be reasonable, as at Colne Avenue & Millbrook Christian Centre and Lord's Hill used to be. I definitely won't be going again."
"Really pleasant atmosphere. Excellent service, and excellent coffee. Woukd highly recommended."
"Brilliant cafe. Always friendly, helpful staff and great coffee. A few table toys and colouring pens available to kids too. My go to place for a peaceful break."
"The location of this cafe is fantastic. I feel like it creates a warm environment. I love the inclusion of people of all ages and abilities, it is accessible for wheelchair users with it being ground floor with a disabled WC and button-controlled doors. It feels welcoming and part of the community. The sandwiches and teas are always very good, and the cakes I've had are lovely."
