"From walking in, the chefs greeting you, you feel how cosy it is; with only around sixteen seats, you feel treated that you have a place. Being shown to our table, we were given our menus, and whilst the menu is small you by no means feel limited. We went for the 3 course omakase; for us, the perfect amount of food. The first course, the fish in egg roll, with spicy mayo, highlighted the fish, but married it to other flavours without it being overpowering. By looks alone I was very impressed. The second course to me was the star of the show. Our tray with bites from salads, to sashimi, to deep fried elements, we’re exceptional. The salads small but each concentrating on key flavours; the sashimi high quality, cut to perfection notable mention goes to the toro; the deep fried elements, the rice cakes and croquets were texturally wonderful and had rich deep flavours. The soup after, to me, was confusing. A wonderful potato and dashi soup but felt marred by sharp elements of lemon pulp. Finally, we had what we thought might be the star of the show. For our mains we all ordered the Wagyu; however, I was slightly underwhelmed. Served on a hot stone, I just left thinking I’ve had better Wagyu. That wasn’t to say it was good but compared to the rest of the meal? I would have stuck with fish. That said, it came with a wonderful salad and dressing, rice cooked with mushrooms cooked to perfection, and charred vegetables. I left dreaming of the fish, but the meat? Not so much."

"Well, where do I start?First time in this bistro and first time using a Groupon voucher in this Bistro. Small place but ok. When I explained that we were using a Groupon voucher the young girl serving said that was ok, so we ordered our sandwich and drinks which were fine. Then I asked for a fruit scone at the counter. The young girl did say that anything extra was not covered by the Groupon voucher and we both said we understood we pay for anything else ordered. A couple of minutes later the same young girl came up to me and said we have fruit, cherry, and plain scones. I said I had asked for a fruit one, oh she said. She returned a couple of minutes later with a cherry scone. I said to her that I asked for a fruit one. oh she said then returned with a fruit scone not the nicest scone I have to say my partner ordered a meringue which she enjoyed. However, the sting in the tail was when my partner went to pay for the extras which was a fruit scone and a meringue. The same young girl said to my partner that will be £6.90. When I heard this I said How much? As we were getting ready to leave a lady from the kitchen came out and apologised saying we had been overcharged and gave us back the change. The young girl had not made sure the till was at zero before ringing up the bill. In my view this young girl clearly was not with it. Both with the scone situation and the bill! If this place wants to keep customers coming back it will clearly have to up the anti quite a bit."

"I pass this place which is attached to Central Station several times a week: it never seems full and appears clean, unlike Costa, which is filthy, and the other station cafes offering seating, which are always full so I gave it a try ahead of a long train journey, starting in an hour. My mistake.The bill board outside boasted a good breakfast deal of a roll(unspecified filling) and coffee for around £2.50. Inside, there was one woman ahead of me, who messed about explaining her need to have a toodler 's bottle heated and asking for detailed analysis of the herbal teas. She grabbed her toddler who was running around screaming, and called another child to the counter and began asking them what they wanted! when I came to place my order, the young woman behind the counter explained the breakfast offer had expired: I asked her when and she said at 11am; I checked my watch and it was three minutes past! I ordered a bacon and egg toastie with black coffee and sat in the area up a few steps from the main cafe. 15 minutes later, I returned to the counter to tell them I was still waiting and before I could finish what I was saying, the older of the two waitresses said yes, it 's coming! It took another five minutes however, and when she brought it I reminded her of the toastie she said yes, sorry for the wait. It was almost half an hour before it came, and it was a sandwich, NOT a toastie!It really wasn 't that busy, and in the time I was there I saw that everyone had to wait ages for their food and drink to arrive. The food was below average, the service appalling and the layout upstairs a mess: a worker from the kitchen had to manoeuvre his trolley round tables and chairs to get to and from the lift. Such a good location, this place could be a real treat and a refreshing change from the chains, but it 's awful and a lost opportunity."

"HoneyPot Coffee Shop Castle Gresley, United Kingdom Expensive for what you get. We went on the bank holiday Monday, very popular cafe with bikers, in fact it was full of bikers to the point where I had to queue for 15mins just to have a pee bcuz there was 5 bikers Infront of me who bought 1 cuppa and needed the loo. The food we had was tasty, I had the tomatoe basil soup, it comes with a thick slice of bread, it would of been nice to have some butter on the bread! We also had onion rings which where very nice and a portion of chips, if you could call it a portion, they came in a tiny dish and must of been 10 thin chips in them (you get more fries at any fast food outlet) My partner had a cheese coleslaw sandwich, I would of thought for the price it would of come with a few crisps maybe a garnish but no! It was literally just the sarnie on the plate. We both had a coffee each and when they came I thought we were on a water shortage! The small cups where only half full, I was just about to tell the waitress that we ordered americano and not espresso. We paid £30 for a cheese sandwich, a bowl or tomato soup, 5 onion rings and a handful of chips (that's being generous) and 2 coffee's, at that price tag I would of thought some butter on the bread a few crisps garnish on the sandwich would of been appropriate. Nice place but definitely run to make the biggest profit they can, shame really as it's a nice little cafe."
