We ordered green tea for two. This is usually priced around £3 at the most. I mean it's green tea leaves boiled in a bag. It came out undrinkable pipping hot and cost us £7.30! I am more annoyed with the price than the fact it was pipping hot. I know prices have gone up but charging this much to customers for a green tea is outrageous. It's safe to say I will spread the word and won't be coming here again!

We have visited before for breakfast and always enjoyed the location, food and service. My first choice wasn’t available and I felt a bit rushed to order a replacement. I chose pancakes with banana, strawberry, Chantilly cream and compote, it was a little too sweet for me, however if you have a sweet tooth this would be perfect. My husband had scrambled eggs with avocado, it was served with bacon in error which meant this turned into a rather large breakfast. They have a fabulous take away section, the focaccia looked amazing. Nice food, generous portions and lovely staff. A great start to a busy day being a tourist.

We went here for coffee because we'd enjoyed a visit to another branch the previous day. This time we just had a hot drink. Once 12.5% service charge had been added, I paid almost £4.50 for my cappuccino. This is even more expensive than east Cheshire. Unfortunately it was bland with little evidence of actual coffee. I won't be so keen to visit again.

I popped in for a takeaway coffee on the south bank for me and my husband, and without asking the manager offered to fill up my kids water bottles and made them a baby chino on the house!! Outstanding, thank you!

Great food, friendly staff served in a lovely setting. We enjoyed a really tasty butternut squash, onion and goats cheese frittata along with super fresh scrambled eggs with avocado. Washed down by really good coffee. The start were great, the ambiance good and the bill whilst a little pricey, was well worth it. Highly recommend a visit.

Went in with high hopes however it was awful. The staff gave no eye contact to avoid attending to your table. Whilst we were in several other tables had to get up and ask for attention. We were sitting for 5 mins before even being given the menus to browse and then waited a good while for the food. Whilst we were waiting on our food there was food sitting on the pass for a good 8 minutes because it almost seemed like the inept staff didn’t want to deal with it. Table behind us had to ask for menus and when their food arrived had to again ask for cutlery. Basic things were forgotten like cutlery, butter, and salt. The food was bland too. Coffee was tepid, fruit juice way overpriced, porridge watery, and croque croissant (supposed to be warm) was cold. Gutted I wasted the money eating here and was tempted to save others who arrived and tell them not to bother. This place is woeful.

I just had a late lunch at Pain Quotidien Monument. It was a brutally hot day and I was exhausted. The staff were friendly and helpful. There found me a table outdoors in the shade, and offered to help me move to the (much cooler) indoors if it was too hot outside. I ate a multi-grain salad that was tasty and nutritious. The coffee was superb. I enjoyed my visit and will return.
