Today was my second time of purchasing coffee and the ultimate vegetarian Turkish roll...very unique coffee shop with funky retro and surf/beach decor in it...staff are fantastic on both occasions and the owner puts her heart and soul into this business and knows how to do it very well...coffee has the smoothest flavour (I purchased some too to make in a cafetera) and the vegetarian Turkish roll I can just never go past as it's like nothing I've had anywhere else...Highly recommend dropping in

Delighted to find this Cafe. It opens super early which is great for early risers. Love the open windows directly from cafe to the outdoors, very covid friendly and atmospheric, with retro furnishings. The staff are super efficient and caring (no trouble asking for a glass of water while waiting for TA coffee ). Coffee perfect too.

Bagels and Coffee! Wonderful little cafe opposite the pub . Had the specialty bagel and coffee deal for breakfast. Excellent deal with the bagels seemingly being their specialty which is a nice change from sourdough and you can get a six pack to go from their range. Coffee was 5 star so I departed with a bag of their beans and a bag of bagels . Staffed by 3 girls who were happy and efficient and made me feel welcome.
