A bit overpriced. For £9.00, a slice of bread and butter wouldn't be excessive with what is a fairly small portion of fairly bland bubble and squeak.

Visited this place after reading the reviews. I was impressed. Great service - managed to get a table even without a booking and staff were very attentive. Food was great, not only did it look good, but it tasted fresh. Couldn’t help but buy the school sprinkle cake and it was divine!

Such a great place, so glad we found it. The food is absolutely delicious. We had shrooms on toast and smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Just perfect. Beautifully presented and so tasty. The bread for the toast was lovely too. Hot chocolate was creamy and delicious. Staff were great. Table service, a few tables outside on the pavement as well. Quirky decor inside. A couple of parking places on the road outside and just a short walk from a larger car park. Popular place and we could definitely see why. Thank you.

A lovely cafe. The hot chocolate was pretty good, nicely presented and good with cream but was a bit bitter, and the biscoff cake was large and tasty, although a little dry. The cookie pie and latte were also fairly nice but not exceptional

Very poor food. The bubble benedict was a pile of potatoes with tasteless, gloopy hollandaise sauce. I are half and felt quite ill afterwards, as did my wife who had the same. Staff were flustered and seemed poorly trained. The only took part of our order and got it wrong. Some were having loud, personal conversations which seemed a little unprofessional. The environment was noisy and chaotic. It would probably have suited a post stage or hen brunch but not a couple or family friendly atmosphere. I've given this 2 stars as it's probably part personal taste. Overall a very unpleasant experience and sadly not much positive to say.

Friendly service , coffee was good , cakes were very dry and inedible. Wont revisit Thank you , Black Goo for your reply, nice to see you actually read your reviews, i should of explained more … I visited last Wednesday, maybe your cakes might have been fresh on Monday but they were not last Wednesday when we visited. We had a carrot cake and a school cake and yes we did mention it when we took the crockery back in so it wasn’t left outside to look messy, your staff were uninterested!!! Also forgot to add we had to ask for sugar and spoons twice, which we had to wait for as they did not have any clean. When you run a establishment accept you will get criticism, no need for rudeness!!

Eggs Benedict and sausage was lovely but black pudding and chorizo were awful. Might be worth changing the oil in your pans and cook the black pudding properly. Not sure would visit for brunch again but the afternoon tea looked amazing. Service slow on a few tables but fairly pleasant staff.

My family and I travelled from Norwich for Dilly's book signing last year and it was honestly one of the most wonderful days of my life! When everyone at Black Goo and Dilly and her team found out how far we'd travelled they treated us like royalty! ❤️ The coffee was wonderful and the cakes are beyond anything I've ever seen in a café anywhere!!! I'm gluten free and there was plenty of choice of incredible bakes and if you're not gluten free or vegan well, you have the most unbelievable selection to choose from! We took home boxes of goodies and both our hearts and bellies were full after the most special day at this special place ❤️ If you are lucky enough to live anywhere near Black Goo - go here often because I sure would!!! Sasha has created a joyous space 🫶🏼 I will happily drive the 130 miles to come back one day! xx

Food was nice, terrible service (waited around 45 mins at the table to give an order, and asked a number of times for someone to take our order) EDIT: In response to the owner's response. We visited around 1pm for lunch, so not sure what point you are making. We were sat outside waiting to place an order for 45 mins. Food was great when it arrived though.

Visited today for mine and my eldest son’s birthday. We had breakfast. This is my fave place for Eggs Benedict! My eldest had pancakes and my youngest had a bacon roll, which they both enjoyed! We then choose a piece of cake each to take away. Such an amazing selection of cakes and a very generous portion. I have been many times here and it still remains one of my fave local places. The staff are so lovely and the cost is great given the quality of the food and the generous portions. Highly recommend!

The cakes are delicious, coffee was alright, ruby hot chocolate for a whooping 4.5 tasted like sweet milk, and the staff was incredibly rude. There was noone behind us, yet they rushed us to order, shooed us out of the way whilst we were looking at their selection, and the older member of staff kept asking what i said, again, with just a rude “huh?” Or “what?”! It was very awkward and uncomfortable to the point i was too anxious/uncomfortable to ask for milk alternatives. Also extremely over priced! Shame because it looks pretty cool and cakes are tasty, but not gonna bother going there again.

My friend ordered the granola with fruit & yogurt which was delicious and plentiful but there was not enough yogurt for the amounts of granola . When my friend asked if she could please have more yogurt to mix with the remaining granola she was told she could but there would be a charge! She decided not to pay for the extra yogurt therefore the remaining granola was wasted. Our feedback on leaving was to reduce the amount of granola or increase the amount of yogurt … or actually keep your customers happy by giving them an extra spoonful of yogurt!

Having read some disappointing reveiws I was a bit apprehensive but they must have been one off glitches, because I loved this place so much on a first visit I went back the following week with a rather discerning French visitor who also loved it. I did see a reference to junk shop cutlery, but this is part of the charm - they have vintage crockery although our cutlery was standard restaurant cutlery. The creamy mushrooms on toast were perfect, the millionaire's shortbread is the best ive ever had, with a thick layer of fabulous gooey caramel and the lemon cake my friend had was declared a triumph. Service was friendly and as the food was cooked to order came out piping hot. I will be back again and again!

Chose Black Goo as reccomended and had lots of different options. Family of 4 adults with dad aged 90! Great food 1 x eggs royal, 1 x mini goo (cooked breakfast),1 x bubble & squeak with extras and 1 x scrambled egg with extras. All cooked well and very tasty. Good selection of coffees and drinks with cakes plus other goodies on display that were popular for eat-in and takeaway. We sneaked a rocky road to eat later. Highly reccomend but need to book as popular and busy. Thanks to the team.

We arrived to have what we thought was going to be a lovely brunch, snacks coffee and cake. It was like we were too much hassle, husband asked for a piece of chocolate cake,,too be told they only had cookies and cream, cake turned up, was hard, dry and unedible, when I went in to pay the bill, the chocolate cake was on the side uncut. I also asked if they took blue light card, to which was told definite no. Not a problem. We won't be back, it was I think the worse place I have been in a long time. We had been to the one in Thame, 500% better on everything.

New to the area and came here as it has a positive reputation, and the design of the place looks good. We discovered an uninspiring brunch menu, so thought we’d go for “full goos” which is code for a full english breakfast. Oh dear did we wait for these meals, and wait and wait. We waited so long concerns arose that the staff from tring natural history museum might come down and find us ready for taxidermy. When you wait that length of time, you are hungry so generally won’t complain no matter. However, the food was very salty, and we were been left with a bad taste in our mouths all day. Not sure what it was that caused it, we presume the oil? A final gripe is that they have a kids menu, yet oversized cultery they have perhaps found at a local car boot sale. Although this might form part of some trend, it wasn’t practical for little hands to get food into mouths so would benefit from review. With knowledge they are providing meals for kids, some colouring materials might also be appropriate given the kitchen are slower than the 1845 stuffed Tortoise up in the museum. Visibly, the cakes looked nice and we might have had some afterwards if we wasn’t kept so long. We will be back to try them, but not sure we will return to their hot food menu. 2 star, as the wait staff were nice enough, they were just hindered by qualifying of back office operations.

This place has a fantastic concept, excellent food menu, incredible cakes and a decent coffee offering. However, what really let’s it down for me is the service. We were not told about a time limit on the table and mid coffee was told we had 5 minutes to drink up as the table had a booking it was required for. When asked if we could finish our coffee on another table I was told it was also needed for a booking and I would need to takeaway. Wow just wow. Service like this can really damage reputation. I just hope this was a one off and no one else has been subjected to this. Left with a sour taste I am afraid.

Really nice, eclectic little shop with great food, pleasant staff, and amusing decorations. We had a Vegan Goo brunch and a mini-vegan goo, and they were delicious. And *so*much*food*! I shared part of my full Vegan Goo with my husband and still could barely finish. Everything was fresh and hot and tasty. We particularly liked the bubble and squeak (which doesn't come on the mini, so you have to steal some from someone else if you get that. 😉) This was the first time I had "fresh" orange juice that didn't seem like it was, "fresh (from the carton)". Cold, tart, and delicious! If we're ever back in Tring, we'll stop again. Highly recommended! Update Sept 9, 2023: Stopped in again for more of the same delicious food. The first time wasn't a fluke - still delicious, friendly, and filling.

You have to visit Black goo. You simply have to. Why? Firstly; the food. Tasty, generous portions, an uncomplicated menu, a kids menu, and did I say tasty? Well, delicious. Let's go with that. Next; the cakes. YUM! Who even makes these? Give that person a medal immediately! We had the Bakewell tart cake for our wedding in April (yes, you can order cakes from Black goo!) and we also ordered a Cookies and Cream cake for my stepdaughter's birthday (which the staff brought out to us with a candle and their best singing voices!). Look, the cakes are out of this world and there are gluten free and vegan choices, too. The staff? Attentive, chatty, caring and amazing.. every single one of them. Honestly, this place is a little bit of heaven. Love, love, love.

Love this place! Down in tring visiting family and just happened across this place. Can’t believe I’ve never noticed it before. Food was gorgeous, staff super friendly and accommodating! My 1 year old has milk allergy and they were really helpful accommodating that. The only thing I would note is if you’re bringing a little one, avoid taking big prams if they can’t fold small as the place isn’t very big. Wasn’t a big deal though, we asked to sit outside instead as I didn’t want to make it awkward for everyone in there which was lovely as it was such a nice day.

I had high hopes when we walked in. The place looked great, cool decor and tasty looking cakes on the counter. Unfortunately the food and service were really disappointing. I ordered the Go Mac and Cheese with garlic bread. The mac and cheese, although looked great had barely any taste at all and the bread was dry and over toasted. I left almost all of this meal even though I was very hungry. This said, the pudding was nice. The service was very poor. Once our food had been delivered we were completely ignored for the rest of our time there. No one bothered asking if we wanted another drink and when we tried to get someone's attention we were just ignored. When the waitress cleared our plates and saw I'd left most of my food, she didn't bother asking if anything had been wrong with it. No one came to ask if we wanted another drink or the bill and when we did catch someone's attention for this the waitress took our payment and rushed off, didn't bother asking how our food was or anything. We had reserved our table as this was a special occasion (birthday) we we left both saying to one another that we'd never go back.

The gorgeous cafe is amazing, so cool and charming and the food is incredible. I love the menu; brunch here is a must and the cakes are huge. DO NOT MISS! They even have gluten free chocolate cake (you can thank me later). Natalie x
