Terrible food, service was awfull and it seemed that no one cared. 5 pounds for a burned sausage bap, 3.50 for a latte that tasted awfull. Not a nice experience and i certainly will not return to this business.

Needs to train their staff better, frappe served without coffee in it after taking a couple of sips of the drink and quiering it with the staff their way to rectify this was to take my drink and dump a shot of coffee in it which then left the drink a lot stronger. Also the Honeycombe ice frappee doesn't look like it is advertised as it came with no honeycomb pieces, it was a cup of cold milk with a bit of cream on top.

We called and met up with family from out of the area, so we only had drinks. Service was very good and the food that we could see looked very nice. Will call again and possibly have food with a drink on our next visit.

Could the service be any slower!? Gave up after standing in an unmoving queue for 10 minutes. Went upstairs. The queue there was the same size, but they had staff on. Sorted in two minutes there.

This place is diagustijg. Filthy tables due to being short staffed every time I come in. I refuse to clean a table before sitting down. Staff are abrupt and rude. Frankly I don’t know how it stays open. BBs in the potteries centre in Hanley is far superior and I have now taken my business there. This branch should be reported to head office. Needs more staff.

They do an excellent selection of muffins for all tastes. Having 2 ceoliacs in my family it's important that somewhere does gluten free options. This place always has 2 types of gluten free muffins avalable and they also do vegan options.

The muffins are the main reason I come here. Which are delicious by the way. Always fresh & moist with that fluffy inside texture. Coffee is also very nice. I always have a Mocha, and it’s brewed spot on here. The coffee prices are very reasonable. But it would be better if the food there was at least £1 less than what they are now. That includes the muffins & sandwiches etc.

Not my cup of tea (see what I did there?). Coffee was lukewarm and Tuna Melt contained very little cheese, but highly priced considering the relatively poor quality. Serve yourself at the counter so service doest really come into it except that queue went down fairly quickly. Would I recommend or return... probably no and no.

Went here as a chaperone for a blind date. The weather was awful, but the food was very good and made up for the rain, the failed date and the weird shopping centre that it was housed in. Prices were a bit steep for things like the toasted sandwiches and cakes, but more reasonable for milkshakes and teas/coffees. Seating looked good and there were very nice ones if you can get them. As the weather was appalling and I suspect that there's little else to do near Talke, it was extraordinarily busy and we were lucky that we could get a table and keep it. Overall, a good place to go if you're in the area.

The coffee is beautiful, not bitter like some other coffee chains. There is a beautiful array of muffins to choose from and some delightful seasonal options, too.

Staff are friendly, and we were served pretty quickly. Cakes are good and tasty, and not too badly prices £3.50 each approx. They have 1 vegan cake (lemon and poppy seed today) and 2 gluten free cakes on offer. However, there were a sheer lack of clean tables as most tables had plates etc so we had to sit outside which wasn't too bad as was still inside the shopping centre.

Fairly enjoyable, the coffees were adequate and food once again, adequate. The service was somewhat lacking in that the person serving clearly just wanted their shift to be over! Honestly, I wouldn't choose to go again and instead use Costa. It would also help the general atmosphere if there was music playing and tables cleaned frequently.

Selection of muffins is good including vegan and gluten free options, however the most recent time I went the muffins were very dry and not as nice as before. I also asked if they could do an iced coffee with oat milk. They told me they could but then put frappe powder in it which contained milk. I would have expected that when I asked if they could do the iced coffee with oat milk, they would have informed me it would still have dairy milk in. Thankfully I watched them make it and asked what was in the added powder. They did then make me a drink without any dairy once I told them I couldn’t have dairy. Thankfully I am only intolerant to dairy, but I would be super careful if I was ordering here and I had any allergies.

I tried a Sunday lunch. It was really quite nice, although a too much broccoli. Beef, potatoes, carrot and parsnip plus cauliflower cheese were tasty. I have tried weekday menus, such as sausage and mash, and they are not as tasty as the Sunday lunch I experienced. I once had trifle which tasted like rhubarb, which I wasn't keen on. The sausage seemed cheap. The restaurant is a good size, and accessible for disabled people and equipment such as wheelchairs. It is also clean and attractive. However, they do close early for food. Not a tea time venue.

Although busy their was an excellent flow and the service was very warm and the staff were brilliant, so helpful nothing was too much trouble As for the food it was excellent! It was cooked beautifully and the duck just melted in your mouth Will definitely be returning. Good value for money too.
