Add some locally sourced organic food, and a proprietor that caters for dietary requirements AND an art gallery and you'll get close to Annie's Tea Rooms. Probably the best Banoffee Pie I've ever tasted, not to mention the salmon and pasta; oh and the ice cream. This a place where you can wake up and smell the coffee and STILL be in the same place!

OH and I chanced upon this gem halfway through our holiday, while visiting Christchurch. It was a…read morewindy grey day and the haberdashery I'd gone to visit had shut up shop, the museums we wanted to visit were closed. We turned a corner and found the Inside Out Coffee Co. OH ordered a double espresso and I had a black Americano on our first visit. The drinks cost £3 together. You pay at the counter indoors and the staff bring your order to you. There are tables and chairs out the front of the shop. They were clean. We were served by a man who appeared to enjoy his job, possibly in his early 40's, skinhead and tattoos, which made him an alternative breath of fresh air. Very polite and helpful man. Our second visit of the day involved going back for a 'Proper chip buttie'. Thick cut bread, white or brown, buttered with chips. All condiments are freely available on the side of each table. There is a toilet cubicle up a flight of stairs which was kept very clean and with a supply of toilet roll. I enjoyed the coat hook on the back of the door. We enjoyed it so much, we drove all the way from the place near Mudeford that we were staying to sample the cooked breakfast the following morning. I ordered the 'Bumper' (£6) cooked breakfast, OH ordered the 'Bumper Bumper' (£7) breakfast. Mine consisted of two double sausages, two bacon, fried mushrooms, beans, potato discs and two slices of buttered toast. I also ordered a pot of mint tea and he bought it out with extra hot water. The 'Bumper Bumper' breakfast consisted of three double sausage, 5 bacon and everything I had in my breakfast in the same quantities. The decor is of 60's origin, with posters of the Beatles, The Who, etc on the walls, and the Mamas and The Papas, Beach Boys and Kinks playing through the speakers as back ground music. There were 5 or 6 tables inside the cafe, seating from 2 to 4 people. The counter display looked really appetising with sausage rolls, teacakes, other cakes to be purchased by the slice. Everything was clean. The prices are reasonable, the coffee is good. We enjoyed our visit and will certainly pop in again in the future if we happen to be passing through.

Well, it was a good thing we did, since we didn't get to go back for afternoon tea... Just as the name suggests, it is located right by the canal. It was very picturesque, peaceful and relaxing. They also have seating upstairs, and had histories on the canal, with photos posted all around the wall. Their cakes looked amazing, but I decided not to order any dessert on this day. Yes I know, a big mistake! Our friend ordered Heavenly Hot Chocolate, and it looked so pretty! We went with Teashop House Blend Tea, and Earl Grey. The young boy who brought the teas (I hear this is a family-run business) was trying to very careful not to mix them up. But the funny thing was, he totally mixed the tea up! LOL. We didn't realize until half way through... I thought the House Blend tea tasted so much like Earl Grey. For lunch, we had Ham, Cheese & Chutney Sandwich and Eggs Benedict. They were both tasty, nice portion, and filling. Our friend went with something healthier, and ordered one of their vegan sandwiches. It is nice to have that option if you want or need vegan dish. We had a nice quick lunch here. It was adorable and cozy. The food was good, not amazing, but good. I think the sweets might be better than the actual food...I will never know, unless I go back! Lesson learned: don't never expect your plan to go just the way you planned them...and have your dessert first!

So thank Yahweh for Mettrick's, a Coffee house for the 21st century. While this review focuses on the high street House, it could just as well apply to any of the four Mettrick's franchises scattered around our fair city. These local kings, nay, TITANS of the Coffeesphere are dedicated to bringing us that premium black juice, and doing so in an environment that could be best described as "hella chill". Naturally, the coffee is top notch. My personal favourite is the filter coffee, which has been known to temporarily evoke the fantasy of being in a roadside American diner in the 1950s, with my glamorous Beatnik girlfriend, Susan. If you are the kind of person that enjoys eating and digesting food, they have that too and it's not bad. Frankly though, the Joe is this cafe's main focus and what they do best. Combined with the cosy atmosphere, warm temperature and friendly staff, this young chain has all the right ingredients to compete with the big boys. As a local and independent business, it is one we should tirelessly support, rather than forking our hard-earned cash over to other less than favourable big name high street purveyors of mediocrity and tax avoidance that stick to the streets of Southampton like an old crusty scab. Let's just hope as the chain expands it does so sustainably in a fashion that stays true to its original vision. Peace out.

The cafe is a hole in the wall with communal seating and a few other tables inside and some outside. It's a bit packed inside but still quite charming with all the mismatched colorful decor. The service was sweet and efficient. Once seated, we were provided the menus and had our orders taken. The food came out fast and we paid at the front. I don't normally eat breakfast and got the Granola. It was fine--your typical yogurt, granola, and berries. It was tart, crunchy, and sweet--they provide a side of honey. I had half and gave the rest away because I wasn't hungry. Also ordered were the Bubble and Squeak and Fruit Pancakes. Oh my gosh, I had multiple bites of the Bubble and Squeak because it was so good! If I were hungrier I'd order this for myself. It's a delicious harmony of savory filling goodness. Loved the mashed potatoes and all the proteins. Highly recommend! Wild Cafe is an affordably delicious spot for all-day breakfast and brunch. Found on a corner in Bath off Queen Street, it's a must for yummy food!
