What do recent reviews say?

Reviewers keep praising the staff and the coffee. Many say the baristas are warm and helpful, and they like the oat latte and mocha. Pastries get strong marks too, especially the flaky lemon tart and the focaccia.

Shio pan is the big talking point. Several regulars say it was dropped from the menu, and they miss its crisp, buttery texture. Some visits also hit sold-out shelves, and a few reviewers call parking hard to find.

4.5(3040)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Diners describe steady food and warm service across many visits. The roast chicken, pasta, crepes and desserts come up often. Many reviewers call the staff friendly, quick to help, and willing to fix problems. Reviewers also mention a cosy, homely feel with a pet-friendly outdoor area. Weekend parking can be tough, and the room gets loud at lunch. Set meals are affordable, and one reviewer found the wait fine on a quiet weeknight.

4.5(1323)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Reviewers praise the friendly staff, clean space, and well-made catering. Many say the sandwiches, pastries, and coffee are good. The 4.5 average across 1323 Google reviews reflects that strong base. Pricing is the sore point. Several 1-star reviews describe displayed prices that did not match the till, a cake slice seen as too thin, and a promo that was not honoured. Slow service and dry or very sweet cakes come up too.
