Ordered a Cappuccino A hot chocolate. After 5 minutes I was served with the almost cold sugarless hot chocolate which wasn't tasty at all!
The Cappuccino was forgotten! So we had to wait for that. The side dish Grilled Asparagus was absolutely tasteless and lightly warm not enjoyable at all!
When the Cappuccino arrived it was full of coffee ground so undrinkable!
Absolutely a waste of money!
Luckily I was a tourist so I won't have to visit them again!
The Toffee Cremebrule was good and served beautifully 😍
Sorry guys no harm but you need to improve with making better coffee
