    BHS Cafe - Seating

    BHS Cafe

    I called in the BHS cafe while shopping in Huddersfield, to grab a coffee and hopefully something…read moreto eat, this store is on the lower floor of the store, which does mean bracing the old, service lift, which is not only difficult to work, but something you feel like you are going to get stuck in, and that's coming from someone who has been stuck in 2 lifts. This lower floor is really quiet, and simply not too nice, as not only was I the only one in the cafe, but it seemed the only one on the whole floor of BHS, which I didn't like, as it didn't have a nice atmosphere to it, and was simply quieter than a library. I ordered an Amaretto latte, and some fries having found out they are gluten free, and cooked in separate oil so they wouldn't be any contamination. I would have opted for the jacket potato option, but was shocked and frustrated to find that they would contain gluten, as this is something that is naturally gluten free and is sometimes the only gluten free option at some places, and it shows me that either, they are too careless to simply make a jacket potato separate and avoid cross-contamination, or they are getting jacket potatoes from a source, where it just costs them pennies, and they don't have a clue what is in them, either option is poor from a cafe from a big name like BHS, who have 12,000 stores in the UK. The guy who served me seemed quite nice, he was quite young and we talked about the new "Living Wage", and I don't want to turn this review into a politics section so I will comment no further, but he did seem a nice person, and hard working, which is refreshing to see in a young person these days in the catering industry, especially compared to my service in Amigo's in Middleton. My coffee wasn't very nice, and it just tasted cheap and was near enough undrinkable, and was simply quite poor, however my chips were of a better quality. They were more like fries, and they were actually quite nice with a decent sized portion, I was also pleased to see they could offer chips like this and be gluten free, and alongside Nando's are probably up there with some of the best gluten free chips, I have tasted when out and about, although with them being just above average standard, it just proves how hard a side like chips is to get, for coeliacs like myself. Considering the negative factors, some with the store its-self, and some with the cafe, I do feel the highest possible rating I can give is 2 stars.

    Verve is a cool place fond in heart from my days at uni. It's a great little hang out that has a…read moregood transition from day to evening, and is massively helped with a cool atmosphere, really friendly staff, low level soft and squishy leather sofas, freshly brewed espresso and a selection of cocktails, spirits and beers in conjunction with an awesome little menu, with a combination of staples and a selection of specials that change weekly, all at good prices with hearty portions. Oh and the puddings are yum too! Two levels and two entrances. A couple of sofas of the first level with a few chairs and tables dotted around, there are a few steps up to the next level or you can walk up the full set of stairs to another slouchy seated area. Down a few steps from the top seated level is a level of chairs and tables all nicely low lit and great to sit down over lunch or dinner with some friends or over drinks. Lovely. Pleasant seating area outside too for sunnier climates and it's one of those places where I've never had an ounce of trouble, no matter what day or time of the day I've ever been in. There's always some kind of funky music playing throughout the day and when the day has turned to night a DJ takes over for more tunes. Oh oh oh the walls are covered with art by local artists, which incidentally is available to purchase! And there is a particularly kickass one on the backwall of the mid level which is 3D and purdy.

    Yes very good overall - decent coffee can be hard to find in a bar!…read more Good overall choice plus very friendly environment - also good starting point for nights out but also ok later on, and in the daytime a good place to grab a coffee. Food choice is good and quality good, I would say Verve is a strong all-rounder, which Huddersfield really needs!
