Caffé Carluccio's in St Albans

I came in to order afternoon tea for two but only had one scone so I got that but I think the name should be changed to cream tea as that is what it is not afternoon tea as there are no sandwhichs or cake as a normal afternoon tea has . Also had ham egg and chips which was nice very good customer service very good with my mum who has dementia and cleand the table and replaced my tea when I spilt it . Overall a nice place to eat with the view of the river there is room for improvement some of the food I witnessed comeing out of the kitchen looked slightly over cooked and another customer commented that the fish was over cooked and the batter was hard

Popped in a couple of times recently when visiting Sainsbury’s. Nice cafe and a good place to sit down for a few minutes with a coffee and cake!

Tried on Saturday but shocked while I was standing in the queue staff shouting people’s names from the till. Not a relaxing environment at all. Had run out of scones. Then noticed a member of staff pull her mask down to talk then same hand pressing a lid down on a takeaway cup. It might say carrluccios but not as I know it. Had to move as couple having full blown argument on table next to us

Very clean and staff are friendly. Great customer service and i didn’t feel like I was in Sainsbury’s whilst eating. Plenty of options for meat eaters and vegetarians but as someone on a plant-based diet I was limited to a vegan croissant and cherry almond cookie. As I wanted to peck at something little, that was enough for me but would love to see at least one other option (something more filling) in future!
