“I stumbled upon this little gem by accident because Tesco Extra next door had no cafe and I asked somebody where can I get a sit down meal. Thankfully they told me about the indoor market and that there were 2 places I could get a meal. One was Heaven Italian Cafe, well 5 stars, the staff are lovely, the beef pasta was lovely I will definitely be back. Needs more advertising tho cos its a shame for people who dont know its there, they are missing out.”
