"I visited here recently with friends, I had my two young babies with me and have found the staff to be quite rude, an older lady working there in particular. I wasn’t greeted with a smile or made to feel welcome, the lady serving me was quite abrupt, my baby was teething on this occasion and noticed I was being glared at and made to feel like my baby was making a scene. When asked if we could use two of the high chairs, the member of staff snapped that we couldn’t block the area we were sitting at I was made to feel like an inconvenience as I had my pram also with me. The drinks were slapped down and were also cold. In other cafe shops I have been to, staff have bent over backwards to help and have been very friendly and understanding towards new mothers as a new mother with her hands full I was left to feel very anxious and embarrassed and that my custom wasn’t valued. It’s not my first visit or the first time I have noticed the staff to be rude but was prepared to give it the benefit of doubt. My mother in law had since mentioned that she found staff to be rude when she visited some time ago. Unfortunately I won’t be visiting again"

"interesting to note some previous reviews here. too much fish on the menu for example. wow, we are really in the world of pampering. first it is expensive. but when they come to such a place, they know that it... will increase current market forces cost everywhere and eat more of a luxury for most of us. we were here for a 65. So we can come here every week? Of course not, we are neither rich nor famous. but we are very demanding and the cared, at least for us, fits into the bill. eating is good, the personal is welcoming and attentive and of course gt budworth is a brilliant, filmic place. I had the 16oz gammon with chickens and it was just good. others had stoganoff and they were also satisfied. we will see each other again in a few months and thank them for a nice evening."

"While canal boating for a week on this stretch of the Grand Union Canal, we were becoming a little disappointed by the lack of quality pubs serving good food on or a short walk from the canalside. Until we came across the Olde Sun. Beautiful old pub with a delightful interior and friendly service. And the food is amazing. The ploughmans was traditional, with great quality produce and everything a ploughmans should be. My 12 year old son had the fish and chips, which despite being a very generous size, he polished off with gusto. Meanwhile my partner opted for the venison cottage pie which he couldn 't stop raving about the best cottage pie I 've ever eaten etc A lovely lunch, a couple of drinks and a game of pool a fantastic way to spend a couple of hours. I can 't recommend this pub enough."

"I have visited this café many times and have always been satisfied with everything. Unfortunately, today I had a terrible experience. I came with a friend and our two one-year-olds for coffee and cake. As young children often do, they made a bit of a mess while eating. We cleaned up after ourselves, tidied everything, and wiped the table before leaving. However, when I apologized to a staff member for the mess, she responded in a rude manner, saying it was unacceptable. As we left, we could see her gossiping about us to other customers, which made us feel uncomfortable and guilty. Having worked in cafes for years, I understand that it's difficult to keep the place spotless when there are young children around. Personally, I have never minded cleaning up after customers, as it is part of the job. We will not be returning to this café, as there are plenty of other options in Carmarthen with friendlier staff and better coffee. Thank you for ruining our morning."

"Knowing that my family and I would be in Abergavenny around lunchtime prior to a walk up Sugar Loaf, I took the rare step of being prepared by looking up a tea shop that served cream teas with clotted cream (any civilised person would of course faint into their jam at the sight of whipped! and didn't close at 2pm (as if everyone's appetite sticks to a schedule . Meeting those requirements alone would have been enough to get a good review, but I was genuinely delighted by The Little Treat. From the moment we walked in, our every need was met. We thought we'd have trouble finding a table as the only one remaining was for 2 people (there were 4 of us , but the lovely gentleman behind the counter asked if we'd like that table and then immediately brought 2 extra chairs over and ensured that we were comfortably sat with menus ordering was prompt and correct. His colleague delivered our food and, when it became clear that there would be a slight delay in my daughter's order, brought over complimentary drinks. The food was excellent neither pretentious nor poor quality. Both our hosts were unfailingly polite, but sincerely so, and genuinely warm. The service alone was worthy of note if all catering establishments were like this then the world would be a happier place but the food left us all satisfied as well. I really look forward to next time we're in Abergavenny so we can visit again."

"visited several times during a holiday and absolutely loved this pub. there is a great mix of a healthy amount of faithful local visitors and those who visit from other afield. this is a perfectly placed refreshment station along the priest’s way, as eating is a joy - we thought of a drink, but ended up eating with an ingenious Sunday roasting dinner. the kitchen is located in a delightful rustic bow in the garden, but not be deceived by the look - the quality shows that the cooks enjoy and are good what they create. there is also a useful shop that keeps many important things for local and tourist. we will definitely return."

"I’d passed by this place many times and hardly noticed it, but de iced it was a nice sunny day for a run out, and decided to visit for a coffe and cake. The menu was tempting however, so I decided on eggs benedict with Salmon and spinach, and it’s only just occurred to me that there was no salmon!...This could be due to a misunderstanding however, as there were one or two variants...and I didn’t like to say but the eggs were both undercooked. I was hoping the second egg was spot on but no excessively runny whites everywhere. My wife had the duck hoisin panini which I tasted and it was really tasty, and plenty of it. One touch I really appreciate was being advised that the young lady who attended our table was new, and learning the job. I like to know....The place is cosy and atmospheric, with a variety of artwork and prints on display. My other niggle is I don’t like tables sprayed and cleaned whilst I’m eating...it could have waited...but the staff were thorough, and extremely welcoming and pleasant."

"Discovered this little gem whilst staying in the area for the Eurovision. Loved it so much that I came here both mornings for breakfast. I had the porridge-probably the nicest porridge I've had in a while. They give you a bowl of fruit with it too. It was perfect. So many places skimp on fruit. The menu is brilliant with lots of pancake and waffle combinations as well as hot English breakfast and gluten free options. There really is something for everyone. They also serve lunch and smoothies. You'll be spoiled for choice. The staff are super friendly and helpful. They took the time to give me tips on things to see and do during my time in the city. I felt very welcome. The place is just cute and quirky with lots of colour and an adorable courtyard with bird boxes and feeders. Great biodiversity. You really feel this is a business that cares about its community impact. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely be back."

"Now the shackles of a large pub chain have been cast off, Nick runs in my view the best local freehouse in the area. It is a welcoming village pub serving an excellent selection of local real ales at excellent prices at the time of writing £3.30 for an excellent pint of Gun Dog direct from the cellar.In winter there is a welcoming fire in the bar, and the pub serves good simple pub grub at great prices nothing fancy or pretentious, just the sort of place to pop down to if you can't be bothered to cook one evening.There is a lot going on skittles many evenings, a pub quiz even a ukulele evening on a Monday night. A great place to meet up with friends and/or locals. Sometimes there is football on the TV, but when that's not happening the TV disappears behind a purpose built cover in a very sympathetic way which transforms the bar back to a welcoming local retreat.It's so good to see the pub now as a freehouse; it's well worth a visit."

"I am sat here at the moment eating one of the least fussy but incredibly tasty burgers I’ve had for a long time. This cafe is great. A real feeling of community and heart with climate change info around, leaflets for a forthcoming comedy night, a loo complete with marker pen to leave a message, and charming staff. I see lots of complaint about the cost. There is information around about careful sourcing of ingredients and it tells. For those that want to pay 50p less for something tasteless in a place completely lacking in social conscience or any atmosphere, there is a Costa opposite. Personally I think this place is doing a fantastic job. Right, now off so sample their cakes..."

"We were recommended this by one of our friends who has family in the area. The place we were staying, Cardiff Arms Hotel and Bistro don't serve breakfast! So we went to this place at about 9.15am as it opened up at 9am. Sign on the door saying cash only. Good job we had some! Very deceiving from the outside as it looked quite small, but when you walk in it went right the way back and there was an upstairs space for over 18's. Two ladies were working and the place was already busy. One lady brought the menus over and said to come to the counter to order. I asked was it too early for a salad. She smiled and said everything on the menu is served from 9am. Because I have horrendous dietary need. GF, DF and coeliac it is hard to eat out. But there was a quite a lot I could have. I opted for a chicken salad. My husband went for poached eggs on toast with a sausage. The menu wasn't too long, but had a good selection to choose from. I went to the counter. Ordered our food. The lady went though all the things I could have in the salad in bowls by the counter. I pointed out 2 things I couldn't have. We sat by the window, the place was light spacious and clean. Tables not sticky or dirty. The lady came over to me again and offered more things to have as I wasn't having all the things in the chiller cabinet. Nice of her to ask, but I declined. Food turned up. An amazing bowl quite large filled to the brim with salad and chicken strips on top. The chicken was very succulent thankfully. Not dry like in a lot of places. My husbands eggs must have been free range as they had extremely orange yolks. He said they were lovely. The sausage didn't look too great, a bit insipid and he said it didn't really taste of anything. The experience was pleasant and VERY good value. The food and cappuccino came to £12....or so. If we come back to this area, we will definitely go again. Maybe for lunch next time"

"What a little gem. China cups and saucers and tea cosies on proper teapots! Lovely ambience with an interesting 40’s theme and charming staff. I was with my granddaughter and we both ordered a toastie absolutely delicious. Lovely bread and loads of filling. Everything on the menu was wholesome home cooking, and a good selection as well. I had a scone (with cream and jam) and it was gorgeous, just as if it had come straight out of the oven. Cannot recommend this place highly enough for a visit, especially on a cold, blustery day in January. There is a garden outside, so I will be back in summer to experience this lovely place in the sunshine (and I won’t mind if it doesn’t shine, as I shall just enjoy the food and the delightful staff)."
"What a joy to visit, we popped in for a morning treat, and that's exactly what we got! From the cheerful greeting when we entered, this was a really vibrant, clean, happy environment. The menu had a good variety of breakfast/morning fayre, along with the luscious cakes and treats on display when you walk in the door. We had bacon and egg in white and tea. Along with a very smooth cappuccino with soya and cinnamon sprinkled on. They had an instant recognition when I said non-dairy so offered cinnamon on the cappuccino instead, along with Oat or Soya alternative milk. We were so impressed we came back before we went home but went to the first floor where they served hot food. We didn't try any on this occasion, however it looked mighty good and was reasonably priced. The staff all so helpful. On this occasion we had apple and sultana cake, San pellegrino lemon, diet coke and a very bold Java served in a cafetiere. Seating very clean and cafe very airy and inviting. We can't wait to return. We really enjoyed this visit! Thank you!"

"A wonderful place to stop for lunch or a quick coffee and cake! Staff are so friendly and patient as we often changed our minds given the array of choice. I had a cherry hot chocolate and I would come again just for that! My friend said it was the best coffee she had ever had. The prices are ridiculously reasonable and there was a good selection for my veggie friend. Since going we haven't stopped talking about it and are desperate to return. Lovely little place!"

"I met up with a friend at this restaurant and we enjoyed chatting over a couple of coffees. The service was excellent and the covid precautions were top-notch. The coffee was delicious and hot. The only downside was the cafe's design, with very high octagonal ceilings, which made it feel a bit chilly due to the open doors. This may become more of an issue as winter continues."

"The Blue Bicycle came recommended by a friend in work. I took my Son and Mum for lunch, the cafe is located in the centre of Neston. Free parking available a short distance away in a nearby carpark. I booked a table in advance which was straight forward and easy enough. We arrived early and our table was ready. The staff where really friendly and chatty. We each opted for a sandwich, I had soup with mine. It was thick, tasty and full of flavour. The sandwiches where all freshly prepared and came with a colourful side salad. We all enjoyed our food, a really lovely cafe to drop by for lunch. The cakes looked yummy, maybe next time as I'd promised my son an ice cream at Parkgate, which was about a 20 minute walk away"

"Firstly this place is now called North Beach Coffee Bar. Both me and my wife went here the other day. We live in Seaham so walked down to check this place out. Upon arrival it was very busy outside which was no surprise as was it was a lovely day. We walked in to be greeted by a member of the team which I personally think is an excellent touch. We were seated very quickly, explained what the specials were and given menus. They do table service here so managed to order within 5-10 mins of sitting down and paying which was great. We had the rump steak ciabatta with breaded onion rings, this also came with fresh chips and blue cheese sauce. My wife doesn’t like blue cheese and they were happy to change it for mayonnaise. We also had a millionaire short bread and 2 fruit coolers (1 strawberry and a rhubarb and lemonade). The food was incredible, chips were excellent along with the steak ciabatta. Millionaire shortbread was very delicious and we enjoyed the whole experience. Drinks were also very refreshing especially on a hot day. Toilets there were 1 male and 1 female which was good. But why I highlight the toilets is that both had baby changing which as a Dad especially is brilliant as not many places do this. But also as a parent it means you can use the toilet as well. Plenty of space for pushchair and wheelchairs. It’s a lovely place where they really have spent a good time thinking about the decor and the staff really are very friendly."

"Came here for a light lunch. Unfortunately, inside was busy, so we sat outside. This was fine, even though it was raining, as they have an awning which sufficiently shelters the outdoor seating. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. We ordered soup, and a toastie. The soup was ham and lentil, which was tasty, warming and filling. We also had a milkshake, which was very chocolaty- perfect! A lovely place to go for a little lunch. Definitely recommended."
