Well I was hanging out for a drink, so I thought I'd try this place. The young lass that served me was very informative. Im glad she explained that you'd get 2 scones with a normal serve or if I'd like half a serve. Most places only give you one scone per serve....this place is very generous. I must admit that the scone was really really good, fresh & crumbly & I'm glad I ordered just one as they were huge. The ice coffee was superb, will be going back there again.

Service was so fast & friendly considering they had a full house as well as their coffee machine was not working. Ordered a lychee frappe drink that was so delish! Well priced, large servings & great service thanks team!

Abit over priced but good. My favourite thing between both dishes was the chips! They where perfectly cooked and had excellent seasoning. The chicken in the Caesar salad ($4 to add chicken) was superb but the rest was just Lettuce. Comes with one large crouton. Iced coffee wasent bad. I dient like the cream, as it's just whipped cream from a can but the icecream was yummy. They do ask if you want cream and icecream.

A regular diner at the A&E and this time tried the fish and chips for the first time. This is a dish that cafes often get wrong with overcooking or poor fish selection. It had excellent crispy chips, crisp batter on the fish but not overbearing, a good fish taste and a tasty basic salad. My partner had the tuna mornay, which was also excellent. I've previously had the salmon bruschetta here which is also very good.
