The staff here have always been friendly and polite, but sometimes seem to not know entirely what they're doing.

They are now a short walk away nestled in a side street at 2 King Edward st. They still offer fantastic coffee, tea, and a cafe menu. I'm very partial to their breakfast menu usually ordering either the Full Oxford or the Eggs & Salmon. Service is quick and friendly and there's both indoor and outdoor seating available.

Nestled in the Oxford University campus and alongside St. Mary's with a view of the Radcliffe Camera you can't beat the location. The menu has many lovely choices which only made me want to return if we had more time. The service was fast and friendly. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy a great experience here.

I was not impressed by the coffee (I got a latte), but the food was fresh and delicious! The portions were generous too. I am keen to return to try their brunch menu (everything looked amazing!). There are three sitting area sections, including an outdoor patio. The staff was cordial, helpful, and quick with our order. The prices were reasonable for the serving sizes.
