Coffee very nice. Unfortunately, watched elderly customers being turned away at 2:35pm during bad weather and told 'closing in a moment' take away only no sitting in. We were offered only take away cups to sit in at 2:25pm. Definitely could just offer takeaway cups at closing time if required. Didn't make for a welcoming atmosphere unfortunately.

This was one of the first cafes we tried when we first relocated to Seaford, 18 months ago. Since then we have visited several times, but latterly (the last 6 months or so) we have noted a real downward trend. Firstly the tables; please could they be cleaned properly to remove the sticky residue from previous customers. The floor swept to remove the detritus of previous diners. The staff are at best, disinterested (their focus being chatting to their mates, or joking with each other, whilst eating and drinking behind the counter) at worse, downright rude. As a customer you get the feeling you are little more than an unwelcome intrusion. A smile and a friendly hello goes a long way. The baked products could be fresher! The coffee however, remains excellent. There are several cafes to choose from and sadly, we will no longer be using this one.

Didn’t like it here at all, there’s much better places to go in Seaford and spend your money. Tables and chairs were filthy with spilt milk over them. Had a cappuccino, which literally just tasted of hot milk, I went for a spinach and feta pastry. There was hardly any feta in there and the pastry was so hard. I couldn’t even cut into it, It was also extremely dry and just disgusting. I then got a sausage roll instead because I couldn’t eat the spinach and feta pastry. Then could not cut into the bottom of the sausage roll with my knife and couldn’t even bite into it. It hurt my tooth. It was so hard and so dry. Didn’t actually taste that bad, but it was just extremely hard. Left 3/4 of it and paid £20 for 2 pastries and two coffees.

The cafe itself is very aesthetically pleasing with great interior, but unfortunately still very backward as they don’t have vegan options. It’s 2024 I get that you are based in Seaford but times have changed so maybe you should consider having an option for everyone.

With 3 staff meandering slowly around and chatting while customers tried to get attention, we waited at our unwiped table and eventually went up to try to get menus, then up again to try to order coffee. We saw 3 separate tables get half their meals and wait a while for the rest, so we had an idea it was not going to be great. After a full 50 minutes, my meal arrived with raw egg whites in the meal, I had explicitly asked the waitress to ensure the egg was cooked through. Rather than apologise or try to rectify it, waitress Jasmine (according to our till receipt) smirked unpleasantly and said "It's OK" at it being sent back. Obviously we won't go again, we would strongly advise that anyone else avoids it too.

Very rude staff. Waited nearly 10 minutes for a menu, another 10 minutes for coffees, and then an additional 30 minutes for food to arrive. Specifically asked for eggs to be fully cooked, and they came out uncooked on the inside. Upon complaining, the assistant manager just kept repeating "that's ok" without saying sorry. No sauces offered with other meal which was dry, unbutterd roll and overcooked. No apology offered upon paying, for taking 40 minutes to serve undercooked inedible eggs. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

We stopped for coffee today after a blowy walk. I ordered at the service desk and waited for ages for our order of 2 coffees an 2 scones to arrive. The coffee was hot and strong and no problem there but the scones had been clearly warmed in a microwave probably because they were stale. They were crumbly and soggy. We sat in a back room where there was more space and I wondered as I sat there whether the owner of the cafe ever thought about dealing with the peeling wallpaper and dismal atmosphere. And don’t get me started on the toilet… come on - you need to put a bit of effort and care into your food and place.. not sure we shall be returning. At £11.60 I think this was not good value nor a pleasant visit.

Usually a lovely spot to stop but staff seemed very clueless or inexperienced, poor service, dropping things, took ages to bring cakes, sold us something that had run out. Sat for ages before order was taken, stood for ages at till before being acknowledged. A real shame compared to precious visits prior to this month.

The atmosphere is wonderful and even the customers are chatty and friendly. I highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking for a bite to eat or even just a quick coffee and cake in Seaford!

We were a reasonably large group but managed to be seated together despite the heatwave crowds in the town. Food like the sausage sandwiches, was that little bit different, 'a cut above ' the normal as one of our guys put it & the pasties were homemade. Great staff and never got flustered even with our resident caffeine addict desperate for her tea. Top marks guys; we'll be back.

A very nice coffee shop, but only appearance, unfortunately. Tasty brunch and good selection but quite overpriced and portions are very tiny. 1 egg was served as 2 (divided for 2 toasts)…. English breakfast a baby size. Disappointed as in decade have not had bad experience with English breakfast anywhere across country. And on top of everything - very poor service, no further comments. Sometimes you might have not a great experience with meal as it’s up to expectations and experience but service and team always make the difference, by just being polite and make the atmosphere. Unlike in this case just ruin everything even more with its negligence and unwelcoming mood. Such a shame as it is cozy and characteristic place for a cup of coffee or a meal.

Absolutely loved the feta and spinach pie! So good it was that I am sitting in their outdoor/stone garden area and writing this review. My girlfriend just said ," I want to stay here forever", as I type this. Whether we will be together in the next few years or not, I hope this place survives and gets better. I look forward to come here in another 5 years, causing a trip from India is expensive 😅. The wait was worth it. Staff was friendly as hell. Not a good comparison but yeah, that's that. P.S. The flat whites were on the house, cause the order was delayed. Cherry on the cake, I suppose.

I don’t like writing negative reviews. I really don’t. But this place was a bit meh. Nothing was ‘bad’ but nothing was particularly good either. The service was good and generally attentive but the food was disappointing and presentation was distinctly lacking. There were 2 full menus and perhaps that’s the problem - they do a lot of dishes but none of them particularly well?
