Bear and Wolf Cafe in Camden

I am so torn as I really like this place, love its coffee and products and visit it very often usually for coffee or food to go during the weekend or weekdays. I always find the lack of music disturbing but I recently visited the space to work as I thought that it would be a good place to sit and focus on my work but the ladies that work in this place are SOOOOOOOOO loud.. I have never seen anything like it. Even if I was with a friend I would not have been able to chat with them as the two ladies behind the counter were constantly chatting extreeeeemely loudly. Such a shame honestly this should be a place to sit down and relax but NOPE! Only coffee to go moving forward.

Great spot but lacks friendly staff. Even a little smile instead of a rude and blunt attitude. Such a shame as there is a lovely woman with blonde hair. The only one I’ve ever had a good exp with.

I’m kind of torn because I think the food and coffee is great. But I’ve been here 6 or 7 times and despite it being different serving staff each time they’ve almost always been unfriendly to indifferent, barking that the kitchen is closed, snatching away plates and cups before I’ve finished, unsmiling despite me being friendly. I really want that to improve as it’s the local cafe but I come away feeling meh so I shan’t return for the moment.

I love this place! The bacon roll with sriracha is excellent and their salted caramel brownie is heavenly. Can get really busy and packed with families (they have a play area for kids in the back), but that’s a small price to pay. The staff are also lovely and the coffee is great.

Coffee tastes like mud and still only takeaway. Can only pay by card and their excuse is Covid. Plenty of coffee houses nearby to welcome in customers and take cash.

The place is cute and the coffee is the best you can get on Fortess road. The food is nice, overall it's great but it was really loud because of the children room. The children room is a good idea for those who have children, there are toys the kids can play with, but happy children often scream with joy, or cry. It's understandable but it's not the place to go to relax with your cup of coffee :)

Wonderful coffee, excellent sandwiches, smoothies. Front is people writing their novels on their ipads, the back is little ones and sticky with small hands. Perfect if you've got a little one.

Lovely atmosphere and friendly service, also liked that they are family friendly. I had the ginger, lemon, honey, and turmeric shot and WOW did that wake me up! Also lush coffee, and cakes that cater for dairy and gluten allergens.

This is a child friendly place to brunch or have a light lunch. Staff are helpful, food and coffee is great. Those who follow a plant based diet can be happy hear; options!!

This cafe was "buzzing' on a Sunday morning. Packed with families overflowing the tables and garden at the back. The noise was chaotic but fun!!

Moved jobs locally and was looking for somewhere for my breakfast a couple of times a week. Found this gem. Great fresh breakfast making a cooked breakfast almost feel healthy! Staff are friendly and exactly what you need in the morning.

We came to the Bear and Wolf Cafe when we were staying in a holiday rental nearby. We'd walked by it a few times and thought the food in the window and menu looked great. The food is good. We had sandwiches and tea for lunch. However, and it may have just been time of day, but it was very crowded with parents with babies and young children and had the atmosphere of a baby-toddler playgroup. The seating is also very crowded. The service was fine, not great, but I could see that the staff were challenged by finding a way to move around in the small crowded space. I'd go back for take-away or perhaps check to see if another time of day was more relaxing.

The staff were rude. The toys were filthy. No baby gate on the playroom door and was told we couldn't shut the door even though the front door that led straight on to the main road was open - a hazard waiting to happen.

Do not recommend. Dropped in with some friends on a Saturday afternoon and sat in the back garden. Went to leave after our meal and found we had been locked outside. After phoning the cafe and banging loudly on the door a staff member came and unlocked the door and returned to the counter without any word to us - no apology or even any acknowledgement when unlocking the door or when we left moments later. No issue with the food but will not return and will deter others from visiting because of the sheer lack of care or interest shown.

Wonderful cafe with space. The food is wonderful, service great, love the baby seats that fit on the tables, the space to park the buggy and the playroom. BUT I would recommend that people supervise their children in the playroom, I would like the playroom and toys to look like they’d been cleaned in the last year and as the carer for a baby I had to have my eyes on him at all times as there were people balancing hot drinks on the play equipment, the door to the bathroom was open, there were glasses around the seating area, children were wandering around unsupervised with food and drink and the playroom was freezing as there was a window open in the toilet. That said I love the idea just needs a bit more organising!

Con mia Figlia e altre tre amiche siamo state a Londra per 4 giorni , eravamo alloggiate a tuffnel park un quartiere fuori dal centro londinese, a pochi decine di metri dal nostro alloggio ,abbiamo trovato questo delizioso bar , così è stata tappa fissa per la nostra colazione , buon caffè , waffle, briosch, pane tostato , insomma la scelta non manca .

Un gran lugar para que los padres vengan a tomar té y café con niños muy pequeños. puede ser muy muy concurrido en fin de semana o vacaciones escolares por esta razón. El área de juegos en la parte de atrás para los niños es realmente buena, pero deberían tener una regla de no comer en esta parte, porque hay migajas de comida por todas partes. Nuestro niño de 11 meses tiene alergias y recogerá cualquier cosa y se lo pondrá en la boca.

しっかりとした味付けとおいしい料理はカフェの実力大です・大きなお肉料理は満足できる味で、ソースも大変おいしかった

A menudo regresar a este lugar porque tiene todo lo que quiere y necesita. No buena comida, desayuno, brunch, almuerzo, tarta, batidos, zumos y cafés así un sabroso menú infantil saludable y aperitivos.

Una pequeña y bonita cafetería con una selección de deliciosos desayunos, almuerzos, batidos y café.

Came here to grab a bite to eat and a coffee, the coffee is really good and the service is quick and efficient .

Selección de bollería y pan es bueno. El pan de chocolate y croissants estaban frescos y precario. Las tartas eran tentadoras, pero no la probamos. Excelente taza de café.

Locale hipster in zona residenziale e non turistica. Ampia scelta per colazione e brunch,tutto molto buono.

Visiting London and walking the neighborhood and decided to pop in on a cold, overcast day. Great little place for a short respite and tasty treats. Coffee was well made by a friendly staff. Quaint, small neighborhood independent cafe. Great place for kids, but was not overrun by them - room for everyone here. Worth a stop, if you are in the area.

Selección de bollería y pan es bueno. Buddy en una brioche hace bacon tarifa British Standard cantar. Desayuno completo nivel de tostadas cubiertas de masa fermentada con salmón ahumado y huevos escalfados con una ensalada era una delicia. No te olvides de pedir una parte de aguacate

Estado aquí muchas veces con mi hijo bebé durante mi año de paternidad. Hay una gran habitación en la parte trasera, con un área de juegos para bebés y niños pequeños, que es un gran lugar para pasar el rato. El café es excelente, así como los bocadillos y pasteles. Estoy realmente voy a echar de menos este lugar cuando vuelva a trabajar!

Vine aquí para un café por la tarde con los amigos - green batido era muy bueno (aunque pequeña) y el café, uno de los mejores que he borracho en Londres. Mango 'osos lassi 'poco parecido con un verdadero lassi (como quizás debería haber sido previsto, aunque.

Su varias veces para el desayuno.

Este es el lugar para ir a disfrutar de un almuerzo estupendo y saludable y no preocuparse por sus hijos. Hay una zona de juegos con juguetes y un bonito jardín en la parte trasera.

Agradable cafetería. Tarta de Limón polenta es delicioso. Perros, niños, ruidoso y ajetreado pero acogedor. Hay mucho ambiente.

El último es el mejor sandwich de tocino tocino que he tenido. Es un poco caro, pero vale la pena.

¡Qué gran descubrimiento! Nos alojamos en la zona de solo dos noches y volví para desayunar dos veces. El café era fantástico, y es muy agradable ver un lugar que es realmente acogedor de los niños.

Wish i was the only person to stumble across this place, but the steamed windows tell their own story. Popped in for a quick bite, but could easily waste the morning away here! It's a great place for a family stop with their dedicated kids menu, play area or buggy park...Food was great too! Just had a bacon roll, but it was delicious- and everyone knows if they can do the simple stuff well then the rest of the menu is gonna be good too.. enjoy!

Ok this place is near to where I drop my kids off to a playgroup so I thought me and my wifey (Who are celebrating her birthday weekend) we would try it from the outside it looks quite grotty in truth however once inside it's a lot better Sunday morning is incredibly busy I think everyone who lives in Tufnell Park who has children visits here On entering once you order you encounter2 long tables about 3 metres long and 1 shorter table about 1 1/2 metres long with a seated bench that follows the wall around the outside of the tables(there seems a mad dash for the benches once a person leaves)the style here is everyone kind of sits together but as the heavy emphasis is a place that encourages family's with kids you will probably be seated next to a 2yr old in a high chair like I'm doing right now kids are sitting on the tables crawling on the tables as I do this review FoodThe food here is very nice but certainly not cheap We had 2 bacon and avocado sandwiches with 2 coffees for £24 the sandwich had Harissa pepper and was very tasty for us it was a price we would prepare to pay at £24 But it was the ceiling limit you have to remember tho you are in Tufnell Park and the prices here reflect the location I feel Kids area cub room This is the area at the back of the cafe that is the area that's provided for family's in truth tho because adults prefer to congregate at the tables therefore you will find a lot of kids milling around the main cafe which is ok because with this cafe you know what your getting with the family orientated nature of the place Summary I think if you have kids you will always find in places like cafe rough ask pizza express....you may find that the experience will be very sterile Therefore you would love it hear !!!!!!you won't be telling the kids off to keep quiet because everybody in here is really noisy which in some ways is a lot of funBut if you're a couple or if you're not a student with a load of other student friends you will probably hate itAs you will struggle to hear yourself think you will be sitting next to 2-year-olds who are burping and vomiting or dirty nappies as they crawl across the table while you're eatingHowever I went here because it looks like a fun place it's really busy and in that respect that as a recommendation enough I guess if the food is rubbish nobody would come here and the food certainly is not rubbish It's delicious

Good breakfast and brunch, good atmosphere, always busy, lovely coffees and cakes. Like the community seating.

Great cafe - playroom and garden at the back for children- one of the only places in London you can actually sit and enjoy the great food whilst your kids play. Brilliant!

This is a great stop for a coffee, a cake, breakfast, brunch or simple lunch.Nice variety if toasts/eggs and salads.They also have a good range of fresh juices.the coffee is very good.

Just lovely food so good really tasty not smart just delicious food Good family cafe lovely staff very friendly Hot chocolate is lovely

The place does not look like much from the outside but the food is creatively cooked and delicious. The seating seems limited with long benches. The surprising thing is that this is a great hangout for mothers and their kids. A well equipped play area is part of the restaurant. Great idea. A bit noisy for those of us whose kids are all grown up.

Menu is packed with all my favourites - avocado, halloumi, aioli, poached eggs etc. coffee is great, strong and prepared properly. The place is very child friendly with dedicated play room out the back. Only let down was the annoying little flies.

Déco minimaliste branchée, buddy parking et espace enfants trendy, Bear and Wolf Cafe se veut un café à la page. Côté assiette? Un régal! Là aussi ça correspond à l'air du temps. C'est frais, bien présenté, probablement sain et surtout c'est excellent. Entre faire 1 heure de queue pour manger un brunch average dans un Breakfast Club ou venir découvrir ce petit café dans un endroit tranquile de Londres, j'ai fait mon choix!

I love B & W because of the reliable food. The Ultimate Halloumi sandwich is my favourite followed closely by Moroccan Eggs. Coffee is excellent too and they are very good at adapting meals if you ask. Yes it can get a bit hectic with buggies and parents but that was what the owner set out to offer and no doubt the families who use it are very grateful for a place where they are not treated like pariahs and can get a decent cup of coffee. I love all the staff and the peanut butter flapjacks.

Blown away by this place, I'd heard really good things but my onion brioche bacon sandwich was sooo good and surpassed all expectations! Thanks Scott!!!

If you're going to pay a premium for food you can make at home, go somewhere with more engaging service. Wait staff are zombies, and not even interesting zombies at that.

Child friendly smart cafe I'm Tuffnel Park. Has delicious sandwiches and, more importantly, space for buggies and a room with mats and toys for children to play whilst mums have a minute to themselves for coffee!

Sunday morning meant a visit to Bear and Wolf with my friends who claimed that this will be the best bacon sandwich experience of my life...they were not wrong! I opted for the bacon sandwich - streaky bacon, avocado, aioli, roasted cherry tomatoes on onion brioche. This was absolutely delicious, perfect mixture of salty bacon, sweet onion brioche and creamy avocado. I also had a pretty damn good flat white. Lovely family friendly atmosphere, we were the only group here without children!

Went there Friday with a friend, 1st time and looking forward to going back. There seems to be a place for all, I was there with my friend chatting away; there were men in suits having coffee, working in their laptops; there were moms and dads and prams. A place for all. Old good inclusion! Yet, it wasn't chaotic, it was serene, the owner (I think he is) and staff quite pleasant and the food absolutely yummy! My friend had the halloumi; I had an open sandwich with avocado, salmon and egg, divine! All beautifully presented and flavoursome. We also ordered juice, really, really good and had 2 servings of coffee, fresh, aromatic, perfect.

Had breakfast here--it was delicious! Very cute cafe by Tufnell Park tube station. Quaint and cozy. Great for families with little kids as there is a playroom/outdoor play area, kid friendly bathroom/changing station. We ordered the ultimate bacon breakfast roll, bacon open faced sandwich, poached eggs with bacon and buttermilk waffle with bananas and strawberries. Waffle was a bit hard and chewy for the kids as we prefer the crispy/fluffy waffles we eat in the US, but everything else was very tasty, fresh and flavorful. Would definitely eat there again. Lovely!

Bear + Wolf Cafe' e' un posto dove ti senti subito a casa.Hanno un caffe molto buono, difficile da trovare in genere a Londra. La cucina e' a vista e il menu', semplice nelle portate offre delle prime colazioni molto buone. E' possibile spaziare dalla colazione inglese rivisitata in chiave healthy alle zuppe del giorno, ai crostoni di pane salmone e avocado.All'ingresso c'e' una vasta scelta di dolci, non li ho provati personalmente ma vanno a ruba a quanto ho visto.E' un posto perfetto con un wifi eccellente e delle tavolate dove e' facile sedersi e fare amicizia. Io spesso mi fermo a lavorare li.Questo caffe' e' pensato per i piu' piccoli,ha infatti un area baby ricchissima, con libri interessantissimi per bambini, giochi, cuscinoni e tappeti. E' una meraviglia essere intenti a scrivere e ritrovarti di fronte la faccia curiosa di qualche bambino. Le due aree, Baby e adulti, sono separate ma comunicanti per cui non e' troppo chiassoso, piuttosto come ho detto prima da un senso di familiarita' molto bella.Ultima cosa: lo standard di igiene e' molto alto e i prezzi sono decisamente accessibili.

Its a long time since I had to spit out food at the first mouthful, and reach for water to swill the taste away, but this cafe managed it.Culprit - "salted caramel slice" (ie, millionaire shortbread with added salt)It lived up to its billing. So much salt that any other flavours were swamped. So much salt it burned. More salty than a salt cod croquette.In short, inedible.An experience like this makes me doubt that anyone at the cafe is actually sampling the food they make/buy and sell.

Had a delicious lunch with my friend here. A fab local cafe in Tufnell Park. Not keen on shared tables, but it seams to be the norm these days.

We often come in here, although it is quite expensive, it is far far better than other chain coffee shops. I love their lemon polenta cake and the ginger, lemon and honey tea. The staff are always welcoming and helpful.

Lovely brunch, rocket coffee and light spacious surroundings. For mums that lunch, crèche at back does not interfere with peace of the rest of dining room

We are staying in Tufnell Park and stopped for lunch having been there once before. The food is really well done. Way better than the majority of cafes in the world. Marvelous sandwiches with a fresh salad garnish. Try the humus sandwich. Went back for breakfast today also great.

Trouver un café adapté à une visite de Londres avec 4 enfants de 14, 11, 6 et 18 mois, une gageure ? Finalement pas avec le Bear + Wolf ! Au-delà du brunch savoureux proposé (oeuf mollet à la marocaine, brioches aux oignons, roquette et crunchy bacon, smoothies...), ce troquet situé sur Fortress Road (Tufnell Park) est un paradis pour les gamins : garage à poussettes, salle de jeux pour les petits, table à langer dans des toilettes aspacieuses (et clean), wifi gratuit pour les ados... C'est tellement bien pensé que des parents de famille nombreuse s'étonneront de pouvoir déguster leurs commandes pendant 15 minutes sans être interrompus par leurs rejetons. Incroyable.

I loved! excellent place if you have kids, but if not it is still very cool cafe with great coffee and food

Me and my girlfriend had a quick lunch the other day, the food arrived fairly quickly and it was very good. Very tasty and rich in flavours. We were surprised by the side salads dressing which was very nice and made the dish complete. Excellent product quality. Would definitely go there another time. Staff was nice and cheerful.

A busy spot, clean fresh decor, good fresh food and thoughtfully made coffee. Fortess Road has come along amazingly with lots of great shops and restaurants in the last couple of years, giving the existing businesses a run for their money, which frankly is good news. Suddenly we've got good places like this to walk to, meet friends and have a decent coffee or freshly made juice. If you want to work quietly there's plenty of plugs pints but go early in the morning or later in the day to beat the yummy mummies and babies! A room at the back full of toys and books pulls in the parent in the middle of the day & the garden is a fab sun spot in the summer months.

Tout est pensé pour les familles (garage à poussettes, salle de jeu, menu spécial,...). Du coup, c'est un peu bruyant. Mais à part ça, c'est absolument délicieux.

As a young 20 something couple we regularly eat brunch at Bear & Wolf. The coffee is brilliant and well barista'd and the food sublime. As many have written on here before, it is very popular with parents and kids so can get quite lively which is why I'd suggest it's not a great place to study quietly/read. Good selection of cakes and fresh loaves of bread helps to differentiate this cafe from many others!

Yes it IS mums and kids central but lunch time seems to be more adult so tried it yesterday with a friend (I think we were the only men there!) Really enjoyed the poached egg with smoked salmon on sourdough toast and service was friendly and efficient. When I got up to leave I couldn't find my hat anywhere and the staff suggested I leave my tel number in case they found it. Next morning I got a phone call for me to collect lost hat. In this busy city where this kind of thoughtfulness seems in short supply, I was VERY impressed and grateful. Thanks guys ... and that's why I'll be back.

A friend introduced me to this coffee shop. It is light and airy inside with the usual reclaimed furniture scattered about. There is a lot of seating round the back in the form of benches that can be shared. The staff are friendly and attentive. The decaf coffee was a nice blend but the cakes were very average. We had a sponge cake and a brownie but I wasn't blown away by it.

is a really lovely place. there have a room for kids as well. i like the coffee there. is very busy in the weekend, so you might not get a seat but is worth to wait

Good place for coffee and something to eat with a nice atmosphere. It is a bit noisy if you're looking for somewhere to work as there are bench tables and it is very child friendly, but you will eat well there! Not cheap though.

Visited spontaneously for quick lunch and overall had a pleasant experience, there was nothing not to like - excellent service, cool atmosphere, supernice food, good portions and good prices. Definitely will come back if be in the area.

nice name but - too noisy, crowded, buggys and babes heaven - yummy mummies galore make this place a pain in the ear. Over priced and staff so cool they might fall over Nice touch of strips of cucumber in the water jugs though.

Admittedly we do not have babies / toddlers any more. But those that do in NW5 must be desperate and teetotal as the food is distinctly average here and there's no alcohol licence. To be fair I've not sampled much of the menu and it looks at least edible, but this is café / brunch groovy style, snacky food only. The buggy park and play room take up as much space as the eatery itself and turn it into an indoor play park with parents splitting 5 minute shifts between eating and supervising the sprog. Not relaxing, nor for the noise. The older crusties might either be in laws or resting older actors wanting to get down with the kids. Service can be so laid back as to fall into space. Wait times for simple food are way too long after ordering at the till and coffee often comes tepid, although gets 8/10 for flavour. Possibly the worst bacon roll with a poached egg ever encountered. Burnt streaky bacon of supermarket packet quality and the egg yolk solid. Staff well-meaning but one-paced, with that hip distracted air as though the place exists for themselves, not the customers. It's all in their own time, not that of the clientele. Milibandovia deserves better.

Good selection of food, good coffee, nice and neat children friendly cafe with a play room at the back. Had the open sandwich with bacon avocado and roasted tomatoes which was seasoned to perfection. Very reasonably priced too!

The must stop place in Tufnell Park if your want to treat yourself to an amazing breakfast / lunch / snack / coffee. If you are lucky enough to bag yourself a table then you will enjoy some great food and drink in a relaxed environment.It gets busy but that's a good thing, right? It's family friendly, even cycle friendly! Service is excellent. Highly recommended!

This place is a great neighborhood cafe, excellent coffee and food, friendly staff and cool ambience.

Probably the best coffee I've had in the UK with a funky cool atmosphere to boot. Always greeted by a smile from the staff there too which is nice.Some of the guys like to sing a long with the music though and could possibly do with some lessons :)

I took my 17 month old son to Bear and Wolf this week. I e-mailed the cafe in advance as I had to travel a fair distance to get there and wanted to make sure that it would not be too busy (based on previous experience as opposed to any ability to see in the future!) The response was prompt and positive.The cafe was busy-ish when I arrived, but there was plenty for my son to do and the staff were very helpful from helping me secure the baby chair to the bar, to washing the large place mat I have for my son.This is a great place to take a child. I really do wonder why there are so few places like this (especially where I live in Barnet where there are so many children and so few soft play venues/nurseries). As was evident, a place like this is very popular, the food/drink was good and the service excellent.

I'm going often to Bear and Wolf with my litter one,as I thought it's the most brilliant place ever,combining a coffee shop with a playing aria for children.But last time when I've been there I saw members of the staff going to the toilet(they have just one toilet which it's used by children and adults as well)and didn't wash their hands afterwards.I started to feel nauseous instant,as I had food and drink there,served by one of the ,,unwashed'' staff member .Are this persons missing their common sense??!! as stomach bugs and egg worms are just a few things popping up into my brain now,which they can transport into the food they cook and serve.It's just terrible,staff members wash your hands!!!!!!!

Really great cafe which serves breakfasts until lunch and has the best bad on sandwich in London!! Love the breakfast berry smoothie too.

Fortess Rd is suddenly becoming an eating destination! And this place fits right in. It does very good and somewhat unusual breakfast till midday when lunch takes over. Soup, sandwiches such as shredded slow-cooked beef brisket, Shepherds'pie etc, plus good coffee. You place your order at the till and sit at one of the long wooden tables and the friendly staff bring it to you. Way better than the usual caffs!!

We popped in late afternoon for a snack and each had a different sandwich. I had the tofu with sun-dried tomatoes and salad, my wife the avocado and bacon and my son had poached eggs on smoked salmon. All three were very good. The decaf coffee is excellent and the lemon drizzle cake superb. It's not cheap, but it's good quality food and the service is fast and friendly.

After hearing such wonderful things about the place that we thought we should check it out. Being a local ourselves as we are known around the area with great relations with them all. Unfortunately when we arrived we were ignored the whole time, no eye contact, no hello, we felt completely invisible! My husband works for a very high end company and he was shocked at such a poor level of customer service, I was so close to walking out! He asked them if we could get some drinks and cakes. Finally someone came to serve us. It has left a very bad poor impression and we have great friends who goes there often with their children. Can't wait to tell them about our appalling service, bad service gets bad word of mouth! Plus overrated and overpriced!

Nice coffee shop with an excellent range of beverages and sandwiches. Especially great place for families

Great cafe, the staff are so friendly, the food is delicious and the cafe had a really nice vibe.The avocado on sourdough toast is amazing! Served with a big salad. The coffee in here is fab.Fully recommend.

Bear and Wolf is simply brilliant. It's a lovely cafe run by lovely people with lovely food and drinks. My baby always has a great time in the playroom at the back and he enjoys the cheese on toast and smoothies. I always have the poached eggs and smoked salmon followed by one of the delicious cakes. We love it!

I must say that went here for late breakfast and couldn't fault it. The poached eggs with streaky bacon on soda bread was excellent especially the accompanying salad which had a very tasty dressing. Normally a salad is left behind but this one was consumed eagerly by me and my wife. Highly recommend the berry smoothie as well. One thing I would say about this place is that it is a one of a kind for ladies looking for a place to have breakfast with their young children as there is a play area and a buggy parking space with play area in the back. All in all fully enjoyed the experience.

This is such an amazing idea for people with young children. The playroom at the back is filled with toys and books, perfect for children under 3 (a little less for slightly older children but still a lot more fun than an average cafe) which are all kept beautifully clean by the lovely staff. The coffee and food are distinctly "adult", which is great - since the kids are kept out of the way at the back it's also a great place to go without kids as they won't disturb you in the cafe at the front. I wish there were more of these cafes!

Shops around the Tufnell Park Tube Station have been changing in recent years with the addition of many speciality shops and now a decent cafe. Bear and Wolf is well needed to this area as it provides a fresh and funky alternative to the large chain cafe that it is near. The space it is in is large, open and welcoming (as well as their staff).The coffee here is fantastic! It's obvious that they take this seriously and compared to the competition its well priced. If you are looking for something that isn't on the board they have been eager to make it for you and its this type of service that set's it apart from its rivals.The menu is simple yet offers a good range for all tastes. I've been for a light lunch or a good breakfast and on all occasions the food has been fresh and tasty. The price of the meal is reasonable and the overall service was excellent.
