Why has it become acceptable for dogs to be permitted in eateries? I will not eat in a cafe or restaurant that permits animals.

Amazing place to just relax and have a sip of coffee, lovely staff! Ordered their iced chai latte but it was slightly less impactful that I would have liked, maybe I should have gotten the hot one! Will love to try out their coffee options next time! *Edit! Came back for their mocha and it was splendid, I should drink more coffee here, its so good. And I got a honeycomb crunch, lovely! **Edit 2 The cinnamon roll was to die for, and it was humongous, I had a fantastic time chomping on it. So fluffy and soft, so full of cinnamon it was the best! Will come back again!

I walked in in a slight hurry as the girl serving was chatting with her friend who was deciding what to order. Absolutely no problem there, normal stuff. When I said "Sorry to interrupt" (meaning to quickly ask them to make a take away and I'd return in 15 minutes to pick up), the serving girl said, "I'm serving her". In a not exactly good customer service way. I just said,"No worries, bye". And left. It was later I went back to buy the takeout coffee and felt the atmosphere a little bit tense towards myself and felt a weird vibe. Great coffee, but. Who knows :/

As my daughter stays in the area we visit this cafe fairly regularly. Unfortunately today could be our last. Coffee & cake are good but increasingly when visiting tables are occupied by students who seem to sit there most of the day while purchasing very little. Today four tables of four were occupied by single people nursing an empty coffee cup. As there were no seats we sat outside under the canopy. However heavy rain started within minutes of sitting down. We went indoors & sat at a table with a solo female & laptop. She looked very unhappy when we joined her. Can’t imagine the proprietors are happy to lose customers but have seen many people walk away because of these selfish people.

As a regular goer to The Cult of Coffee with friends and solo I had always loved the atmosphere, coffee and cake however I had an extremely uncomfortable visit quite a while a go now and I haven't been back since. I arrived at Cult of Coffee intending to have a cup or coffee and cake whilst looking over some notes on my laptop. I had gotten served and found a place to sit, the cafe was quite busy but I luckily managed to find a seat. The barista took over my order and I opened my laptop to get started. Not even two minutes into being seated and I had the lady who took my order rush over to tell me "She might have to ask me to leave." I was quite taken back by this so of course I asked "Why?" She follows with "She didn't realise I was working and laptops are only allowed Monday through Friday" I said that "I was sorry and I didn't realise as its not sign posted and that I was only going to be there no more than 30 minutes" She dismissed this and said regardless she might have to ask me to leave because it was busy. I felt very upset by this interaction as someone who was a regular customer and I had previously sat on a weekend with my laptop and had no issues, not to mention the amount of times I had come with friends and sat for hours over a cup of coffee. The thing that got me was in the time where I was being told I might be getting chucked out despite not even have had having a sip of my coffee there were others sitting and reading, on their phones watching things that had been there a lot longer than I had? How was I any different than them just because I had a laptop? I feel like if its that busy then everyone should get the same limit to have their coffee, no? I come in and buy from the shop and I continue to do so if I'm not finished what I'm doing whether that be hanging with friends or working. If I had been sitting for a long time taking up space and time without buying anything then I would've understood if someone was to approach me saying this but I had just sat down.I felt very targeted and uncomfortable. I feel as though your customers don't get treated equally and if laptops are such big deal then it should be sign posted and enforced. Books etc. should be treated just the same. Fair to say I left after 15 minutes as I felt so embarrassed as other tables had heard this interaction and I feel like I was made out to be a burden. By this point I was even sharing my table with others, again I really was not taking up space or time. The way the whole situation was handled was completely unprofessional. If a member of staff had approached me and mentioned that these were the rules on the weekends then I would've completely understood but instead I was met with a hostile approach. Ive worked in hospitality my whole life but my experience from this cafe has made me and several friends not return. In emailing the manager I got a response a month later basically saying I can get a discount next time in store, the email was very impersonal and very clear that they really couldn't care about my experience with their staff. There are plenty of other cafes I would recommend with better management and customer service. Corner tree is just down the road and Bagel Society! Im not meaning to be rude but if you're going to treat your customers like that from time to time you've got to expect some of them to eventually speak up about their experiences. I used to be the customer that was treated kindly, until I wasn't so just a heads up for any regulars.

Full of Masonic symbols, pyramids and the all-seeing eye, and yet despite the tiles at the counter saying “wake up, you are not free” it was card only, no cash accepted. I didn’t want to embarrass my friend by walking out, so she used her card to pay. The actual coffee itself was mediocre

First time here and sadly was not very impressed overall. Coffee and cake - very good. However, it was a very stormy day and it was rather cold inside. Possibly not helped by the fact there was only one table left which was the one nearest the front door. When we arrived, all the comfy, booth seats were taken up by students who had obviously bought a coffee on arrival but proceeded to stay the whole afternoon studying on their laptops and purchased nothing further. At one point, there was one student taking up a booth that seated four. Whilst I’m all for supporting student education, I think it a little unfair to other customers that all the best seats were taken up for the whole afternoon for studying purposes. We stayed around 1.5 hours and purchased two coffees each and cake. We would have stayed longer but at 4pm we were asked to leave because the cafe was closing early. We were given no prior warning the cafe was closing and therefore I had to leave half my cup of coffee. I think a little warning would have been the correct approach so we could finish our coffees. Sadly based on this experience, I would not return.

Arrived early afternoon and was optimistic, first visit. Liked the overall decor, style of the premises. Coffee, no complaints, but on-going ambience reduced due to the lack of heat. Seemed a bit ridiculous that all the best i.e warmer more comfortable seating areas were all occupied by students. All for education, was a student myself at one time, as was my friend - but they were neither purchasing coffee, tea or cakes ! Ok, perhaps they had initially purchased a beverage, but were now opting for free water from a water dispenser, or had even taken their own water or smoothies ! It irked my friend and I, having made the effort to venture out on such a horrid day to give this local business support. A log burner was in situ, but sadly mirrored the lack of warmth in the place. I think from a business viewpoint and to be fair to other customers, the warmer, more comfortable booths, should be free'd up more frequently to allow others to use them. Almost 2 hours there, no cheery, welcoming fire radiating warmth, students hogging better seating..... It's a first and last visit for me sadly.

Great little place to stop for a coffee, the staff were efficient. Though on second visit the guy on the till was most interested in talking with two cyclists. Coffee was one of the two best places I found in Aberdeen. Let down by the food options. This really is only a cake and coffee place, which in the morning is not ideal. I would suggest a couple of savoury options might go down a treat here as well.

Lovely spot to visit on a hot summer day or to shelter from the rain. Wonderful coffee and a wide selection of cakes and other baked treats. Warm and welcoming staff. I had a very generously sized cinnamon roll that paired perfectly with a delicious chai latte. Wonderful! One note is that due to the size of the venue, it can be bustling during peak times - but otherwise fantastic.

Fabulous Coffee and Cakes with great service. First time we had been here so decided to pop in on a Sunday afternoon in November. Nice warm welcome and busy but managed to get a nice table in the middle to watch the eclectic mix of folks and their lovely dogs. We're not dog owners but it was lovely to see so many happy dogs and their owners. The coffee was perfectly constructed and the cakes were devine...... so moist and packed with flavour. The place is impeccably cleaned and well looked after by the young well trained team

They only want people in cars to attend, they are campaigning for busy traffic, roads and extra parking outside their shop, which seems a bit odd as most folk dropping by like myself are on foot, but good luck with their car customers, perhaps they should turn it into a drive-through.

Much better supporting an independent local business instead of the multi-national coffee chains. The staff are excellent and the service is perfect. The prices are very reasonable.
