"Myself and my family visited this cafe yesterday, but unfortunately could not believe the absolutely bad service we received. I have visited the cafe in the past, which I have to say is very mediocre, but passable. Nevertheless, on ordering our food, I asked for a childs meal+drink, which she went off to get the drink, then came back to me, to which I asked for a dinner+cup of tea, then proceeded to give me a ticket number, went to the tea machine, as I still talking saying I haven 't finished yet, came back and then I asked how much some chips were to go with a breakfast, she said £1.20 for a bowl, to which I replied is that the same price for a few chips on the plate, she added yes, they just come in a bowl, so I then replied that 's okay then . We eventually received the childs meal, my dinner, bowl of chips, AsI had been in previously a few days ago, ordered a breakfast then too, which took forever had to ask where it was,?? I just thought they obviously take a while to do it,but as the chips were getting cold I asked the young girl where the breakfast was, she went off to ask, the next thing we saw was the blonde woman practically storming down the aisle to us, literally started shouting at me saying I didn 't order the breakfast,even though I had a whole conservation about the chip saga, she then admitted I asked about the chips with the breakfast, hence contridicating herself!!?? My daughter then said it doesn 't matter as were pushed for time, then started with an absolutely disgusting attitude towards me daughter, we were gobsmacked!!! Could not believe what had just happened!!. On my previous visit, the same woman had a terrible dig at an elderly couple whom complained of a cold draught to which they moved tables, myself my friend was also witness to this, as the things on the ceiling were wafting about, she again very abruptly said we don 't have any aircon, your wrong, it must be the draught from the door!!! bearing in mind, no one came through at the time, I thought then, was there any need for her attitude?? I thought she must be having a bad day, but felt sorry for the couple. Hence, to say after enduring this latest fiasco, please be warned Enter at you peril!! This person needs to require some good customer service skills asap, or she,all have no customer 's."

staff chatting about their kids, strong smell of grease could do with a deep clean in the cafe bit, the breakfast was ok but you can get better in the shambles and for much less. I will go back and try the lunch food

I visited the cafe with my mum and we ordered children's meals. The quality of the food was excellent and the service was impeccable. They even put our meals on normal plates rather than Thomas the Tank Engine ones. Defo going to go back.

Food glorious food is a simple restaurant aimed at the aged where singles who don't cook can get a meal it's simple food made simple, but sometimes this is just what is needed. The pizza was really good for the kids, however my parmo was poor with lumpy cheese sauce and an overwhelming taste of butter instead of cheese. We stayed for pudding this was ok but nothing to shout about. But I will say again for the clients this is pitched for it's just right.

This is a cafe selling standard ‘greasy spoon’ style cafe food. The food is ok but it’s not the best quality, and I don’t think it’s worth the price you pay compared to other places. The coffee wasn’t great despite being fresh I asked for it black so it came in a mug filled to the brim with water which meant its was pretty weak. I pointed this out and asked for an extra shot but was told I would need to pay for this. 5 star hygiene rating though which is a good point and service was quick. Not to my tastes but looks like an independent cafe which was full of punters so worth a visit if that’s what you like...

Felt very uneasy about eating my meal here as it was a visibly dirty environment. The cutlery, which you had to get yourself from a grubby plastic container, was smeared in grease. The table was grubby as were the menus. The lady serving was short with customers and didn't smile once. At one point my friend wished her a Happy New Year to which she didn't respond. Food portions were small and the quality of the food itself was very low. Bread smeared in margarine, even on burger buns which I've never heard of before. Grey meat on the burger, warmed up oven chips etc. Sorry to be harsh but it really wasn't a great experience at all.

I visited this cafe with my disabled mother and my 5 month old son yesterday and would not recommend. Firstly, I asked for the bathroom, it was up 4 and a half flights of stairs. When I got to the bathroom there was no baby change facilities so I ended up having to change him on the floor. I returned to the cafe and informed my mother as she would be unable to use those facilities. In the meantime, my mother ordered a decaf tea and a caramel shortbread for myself. I was impressed they offered decaf as not all cafe's do, I am breastfeeding so cannot consume caffeine. However, the tea was served ready made in a mug. This seemed very strange as how do they know how much milk you would like or h...

"Great food and atmosphere but couldn't recommend to people with allergens or dietary requirements. 3.5 out of 5 Food was amazing but unfortunately even though we checked several times there was a mistake in our order (no bacon on the burger). We were the first food orders of the day so the kitchen shouldn't have too been busy yet. We were given assurances that the burger was bacon free when it was served but my sister opened it up and checked so thankfully she didn't eat any of the burger. It meant me and my sister shared one meal while we waited about 20 minutes for a new burger and we had a toddler with us who was very hungry. Nothing was done to compensate us for the error unfortunately which leaves a bad taste in your mouth. We loved the food here juicy flavourful burgers and well seasoned generous portion of chips. Halloumi with chilli jam was delicious but a bit measly at 3 pieces 4 pieces would make it a nice sharer for 2 people. The heaters were great and outdoor setup was amazing with cover and sandwiched between two buildings. Our server, the Asian lady, was really kind and lovely. Social distancing wasn't great we were sat right next to people, and while we didn't mind (we are both vaccinated) they were clearly uncomfortable. Booking is easy using their online system and requires a deposit to be paid (we paid £20 for two people). Sadly we couldn't recommend the place to any of our friends with allergies or specific dietary requirements given our experience. Mistakes should be handled better money off the bill or something complimentary. My sister was really upset as apparently no bacon is often an issue when she eats out, but she was expecting better from hope and Union."
