Most Disliked
While the cafe provides a welcoming environment, some visitors express that peak times can lead to a crowded experience. On busy weekends, seating may become limited, and wait times could stretch longer. A few diners have mentioned that the takeaway service can occasionally experience delays during rush hours, impacting their overall experience. Additionally, those seeking a lavish dining experience may find the casual ambiance and simple decor to be less appealing compared to more upscale establishments.

I’ve been coming to this cafe for years, and even with the recent change of ownership, it’s just as wonderful as ever — maybe even better! The coffee is always spot on, and the eggs benedict are absolutely delicious. They always have a lovely selection of fresh cakes on offer too. You can really tell they care about quality and service. A perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or just a good coffee and cake. Highly recommend!

Such a lovely spot for breakfast — calm atmosphere, great coffee, and beautifully presented food. I had the smashed avocado with poached eggs, and everything was so fresh. My little boy said they were the fluffiest pancakes with bacon and maple syrup! The full English was delicious with generous portions. Such a cosy little find — definitely a new favourite for slow weekend mornings. Great service and highly recommend!

This is my favourite place to eat. My family and I have been coming here for years and the food is always top notch. Coffee is better than the chains and I love a good granary crusty baguette, you just can't get them anywhere. Also, the Full English is legendary and everywhere else I go, I always say. It's nice, but not as good as the City Corner. This is my go to place.
