Having left Casamia we were escorted to The Shop and ordered the tasting menu and some great wine. We were lucky to have exceptional service from everyone and this was matched by food that was not what we were expecting. Each tasting bettered the last. The bread that started the meal had a great aroma and the taste was, for us, stunning. A Pollock app was surprisingly tasty and called for more. Topping the meal was a fantastic bottle of red wine. The restaurant is not large and we sat with a view of the pizza oven that produced a great pizza. Thanks to all for a wonderful time. I apologize for not remembering our servers name as she was great and helped make the evening.

Formerly known as Pi Shop, this has been relaunched after a spell of closure and now seems to be just The Shop. Whereas before the menu was predominantly pizza, now it’s more “small plates” as they call it, although the prominent pizza oven is still there and there was a choice of four available. Staff were all pleasant, helpful and friendly, and when asking about the rather unusual wines (just four white and four red were available) we were offered a couple of samples to try. The food menu too is fairly concise, and the simplest thing seemed to be to go for the tasting menu (or “The Shop’s Pick”) which consisted of the majority, but not all, of the available options. The menu description certainly didn’t do the dishes justice, but they waitress was happy to talk through things. First up was “Cheese & Pickle”, and this was really quite exceptional. Think Welsh Rarebit and you won’t be too far off the mark, although it wasn’t on toast, I’m not quite sure what the base was. But it was very, very, tasty. The Cod with Mussels & Whey was another highlight, a beautifully cooked morsel of fish atop a mussel or two in a rich and creamy sauce with vibrant green dill oil around the edge. My only criticism which be the “Things on Bread” course which was a choice of four pizzas. We went for the Sloppy something, I can’t remember exactly what it was called, but unlike the Sloppy Giuseppe made by a well know pizza chain which isn’t at all sloppy, this one certainly was, but in a good way. It was covered in a rich pork ragu which was very tasty and had plenty of grated cheese over the crust. My criticism what not the pizza itself, that was very enjoyable, but the size of it. It was really far too large since we’d already had four courses, and it really took the edge of the two desert courses which we then rather struggled through. Of the two deserts, one was described as Mr Whippy with raspberries, and it was indeed served from a Mr Whippy machine, but was obviously there only recipe being somewhat denser than the van version with a very subtle caramel taste. The raspberries had been finely chopped and frozen and had been sprinkled over the ice cream to provide a crunchy topping. It was certainly a great end to the meal. All in all, highly recommended.

Friendly staff and fantastic quality breakfast sandwiches from this company, hence why we order from them every week.

Nipped in here to try the snack boxes last week. Helped myself to hot food, a jacket spud and salad and the food was great. Home made Moussaka, Pasta Salads all very tasty. Loved the idea of picking exactly what I wanted and in what quantities. The only restriction was to fit it in the bowl. Great food, friendly staff - will definitely return and recommend to others.

Their spelt loaf is delicious, particularly the one with seeds all over it. Pasties are amazing too. Highly recommend.

Been there three times the last month (usually Saturday mid-morning) sometimes on my own to just have my brekkie and read my book and some others with friends who I convinced they have to visit and try those legendary pancakes that Abbie’s cafe serves! Abbie, Chelsie and Leanne are great, really passionate and friendly! Couldn’t recommend this place enough and I’d go back every week not just to support local for the sake of it but just because I haven’t had such a great breakfast in a while and can definitely complete any well known city centre coffee shop! Keep up girls!!!
