Had chicken tacos from their street food menu and it actually tasted like street food that you would get at a cool restaurant in London or Berlin, not the reheated fast food street food you normally get on the island. The chicken was fresh and the flavor was interesting and great. It also came with a nice combination of four salads (including tomato and mozzarella and a cous cous salad). Finally, rather than throwing chips at you, it included some beautiful sauteed potatoes. Overall, a great lunch.

I'm a big fan of Noa bakehouse around the corner and finding this place was shut the other day (for…read morea private Xmas party) I started to go into panic mode thinking I'd end up in some dodgy caff or Costa to get the first proper beans I'd had for days! Lucky for me that I remembered this place and convinced my wife we should walk the 2 mins in howling wind and rain to get to the promised land. This place has been here for years and while maybe looking slightly dated in terms of modern coffee shops has a really good vibe with friendly staff, lots of snacky options and of course good quality coffee. The macchiato I had was great and my wife went for the cappuccino - these both came to £4.50 which is a fair price to pay. Just be warned though that they charge 50p to use your card if less than a fiver - so make sure you have enough cash on you as I didn't clearly see any cash machines close by. Hot chocolate is supposed to be awesome here too. Wifi password is: spillthebeans

I had the Philly Cheesesteak with onion, and while not overly authentic (I'm from the US) it was tasty. The steak was thin but not chewy or fatty, chips were nice. My son had a burger which he liked and a chocolate chip milkshake (which anyone would like). My daughter had a smoothy that she raved about. Menu also had a lot of nice options, including belgian waffles, pancakes and omelets. Will definitely go again.

I have often walked past and taken no notice of what looked to be an ordinary cafe. I have to say I…read moream very pleased that I finally ventured in to give it a try. The decor is basic like any typical British cafe until you see Chinese writing hanging from the entrance to the kitchen. (see photo) I was immediately drawn to the Oriental Corner part of the menu which offered a meat choice with noodle in Soup. If you have ever had Vietnamese Pho then this would be like a Chinese version. (not as intricate as a proper Pho or with the proper noodles) I ordered the meat dumpling with noodle in soup and my friend ordered the roast pork version. We also ordered a portion of Chinese pan fried meat dumplings (this was pork and shrimp, known as Jiao Zi if you want to get technical) When the noodle / meat soup came out it looked very appetizing, was light in flavor (they give you soy and homemade chili oil to deepen the flavor to your liking) I tried both dishes and have to say the roast pork was tender and light and the dumpling was excellent. I can't believe this was only £4.50 a portion! Yes, £4.50! A crappy sandwich from a shop would cost £3.50. This is much better! The side of pan fried meat dumplings were very good although I wish the dipping sauce was a bit more interesting maybe some garlic, chili sesame seed oil or something. The staff in here are also really nice. Very friendly, warm & smile a lot. Gives the place a good vibe. I will definitely be coming back to try some of the other oriental dishes. (They do other typical cafe / British dishes as well and I may give those a try at some point also as I imagine they will have the same high quality and great prices.) I suggest you give this place a go. I for one will certainly be coming back!

I had a wonderful fresh and tasty quinoa salad which had beets and apples. Sounds boring but it was really good. The husband had pulled pork with an added egg and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meat and our whole meal was very satisfying. I think everything is locally sourced and the menu is well thought out. They also have plugs scattered around too if you need a place to charge or work and grab a coffee/tea/kombucha. As per tradition, I ate too much and didn't have enough room to try the cakes. Figures :(

The lamb was tender and the sauce had a nice flavor. The only thing keeping it from five stars was I found the sauce a little thinner than I would have preferred.
