Amazing place, awesome staff.

They offered free drink to my little one when I went there for an enquiry. That's world class customer service ( technically I was not even a customer on that visit)

Like most coffee shops it is expensive, ordered two hot chocolates and two snack bars, sat and waited and waited, eventually had to go and ask for the hot chocolates, I think they had been forgotten. It was very busy so perhaps that was the issue.

Nice place upstairs of the Westgate shopping centre. Very polite and helpful. Went at lunchtime & very busy still a good selection but long waiting time. Managed to sit down though. There’s toilet available. Child and buggy friendly too.

Delicious baguette and coffee BUT

Ordered a cinnamon swirl take away. Several hours later after a gruelling rail replacement bus journey home I found I was given a pain aux raisin.

A PAIN AUX RAISIN INSTEAD OF A CINNAMON SWIRL.

It will take many moons to recover from this ineptitude... this betrayal

Edit: after getting home I had a nap and upon waking thought I'd eat this pastry anyway (it was the only sweet food in the house).

I have to admit it was actually quite tasty and I recognise I was being overly emotional and dramatic in my prior review.

Don't get me wrong... a pain aux raisin is not on the same tier as a cinnamon swirl. Not by a long shot.

However, to honour this new found revelation I have updated my review score to more accurately reflect the entire experience.
