It's been a while since I've sat and worked in a Cafe, but I had the need today and, having walked…read morepast this place on my way to work a few times, decided to give it a go. The staff were all pleasant and helpful and the decor very pleasing. Clean and fresh but still quite comfy and chilled. What I liked is that they had plenty of charging points for my computer and they left me alone to get on my work. I didn't feel like I had to leave once I'd finished my very reasonably priced but lovely decaff cap and cinnamon bun. I'm a very happy customer! Thanks!

I love this place - The smells remind me so much of when I shopped around Tuscany.

The staff are always chirpy and very quick with taking orders.

I always felt lightweight when I ordered my usual 2x eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions and chips...yum!

A star in Myddleton Road…read more "People here make good cocktails" said my wife. I agreed wholeheartedly as I sipped my Lord Palmerston (Espresso, Bourbon, Bailey's and Milk). The step, an island in Myddleton road, is a stone's throw from Bowes park train station. Myddleton Road has some interesting shops that somehow still keep going. There is great potential here and should the community of businesses organise better, and involve the local community, it could truly take off. The atmosphere inside is pleasant. It is generally full of locals enjoying the excellent food and drinks. Inside is full of a n odd assortment of tables and chairs. The lighting is a hodge podge of lamps, minor chandeliers and spot lights, parts of the wall are brick and the other issues bucolic wallpaper adorned with impressive paintings of roosters. Somehow it works and makes you feel quite chilled. The music, a mixture of funk and jazz, helps a lot. The selection of food is limited but having eaten the burger, fries/wedges (sweet potato and potato), scotch egg and the apple and berry crumble, I have been impressed. Today I ate the scotch egg. They managed to keep the yolk runny and the suasage meat was flavoured with herbs. I devovered it with gusto. This is the third time I have been here and every single time I have been impressed with the food. The burger by the way was pink in the middle and made perfectly. The juices flowed both from the beef as well as my mouth. They have a deal for a burger and beer or wine for £10 between 6 and 7. I recommend it. Let me just say that I have probably had nearly every single cocktail but one, the aperol or campari Spritz, and each has been well mixed. Each single time the mixologist has been different so I am blown away by the consistency. One last word on the staff who are always pleasant. I haven't had the nerve yet to strike up a conversation but am sure that it would be good. I thank the staff here for keeping this place going and doing such a marvelous job.

The garden is lovely too... a dearth of local boozers adds value but this place is a good fit for me and the range of events excellent! Update: finally made it in here for food and was suitably impressed with the small menu. My mum and I shared the spring salad and stuffed courgette. The courgette was good but the salad blew me away.. each mouthful was a combo of great textures and different flavours all creating a party on the palate.. or plate. Go there peeps! But book. It's a local gem and I'm heading back there for a live music nights soon!

There's always a smile to greet you (and it's not a plastic one either, they really are glad you came). You check out the basic menu on the wall and they're happy to tailor to your needs. I was there just the other day and I'm fussy with my salads at - no probs they held back on the carbs and topped up my protein. They even laid out little pots of dressings for me to help myself. And there's no rush here. You can just take your time, sipping on a good cup of coffee, and allow the world to spin without you for a while.

The vibe is relaxed, there is outdoor seating as well as ample space on the inside. The place is always alive with people and has good customer service. The coffee is very good; I detected a mild floral scent to it, which I really enjoyed. There is also a decent selection of pastries and other items to go along with whichever coffee you decide on. This is a great place to hang out with friends, or go to to get a little bit of work done. They also have iPads that customers can use to catch up on news etc. definitely worth checking out.

Plus the coffee is much better than the free stuff they give you at Waitrose. I'd much rather pay the £1.80 for a drink than get a crappy free drink. So yay for them! They also do breakfast and lunch, and I keep thinking we should try the breakfast out sometime, but we've never been in.
