Waited nearly an hour to get food which was rubbish considering that we were the only people in there. The guy who I assume to be the owner also needs a little bit of help with the customer interface.

When I pointed this…read moreout the waitress didn't care a jot even though I pointed out this could be very disappointing for customers coming from out of the area. I have several food intolerances so when asking about the ingredients in their homemade cakes I got a message back via the waitress that she can't guarantee the cakes were free from what I was intolerant to. As people with food intolerances are always ending up having to go without gorgeous food, I asked if I could have more detail of what was in the cakes so I could make a decision on what it was I could or couldn't eat, just in case there was something I could have. This was very obviously an inconvenience to the waitress and the manager who had baked them. She tried again to say she couldn't guarantee anything because obviously this was the quickest way to solve the issue for herself, but after explaining that I'd like to try to see if there was something I could eat, it was again very plain that I was wasting her time. It was late afternoon and they weren't busy, so I would have appreciated a couple of minutes of her time without the attitude. After finding out there was indeed a piece of cake I could eat, I sat down to enjoy it only to be served it with more attitude by the waitress. If she could have got away with grunting at me I sure she would have! I unfortunately had to ask for a pot of hot water as the tea didn't come with one, and AGAIN got a look saying 'are you bothering me again?!'. Cleanliness was also not great with tea-stained table clothes, dying roses on the table, and also dust on the teapot holding the roses which was next to an open sugar bowl which no doubt had the same amount of dust in it! Also, amazingly, a dog walking around the kitchen area with it's bed behind the serving counter!! (Yes, I am about to inform environmental health dept!!) Lastly, my table was being cleared before I had finished. I did notice however, that the other table still in there didn't have their table touched, so I'm guessing that was a touch of nastiness from the waitress also. I was there looking for a place to take 18-20 friends for my birthday which is coming up soon as we fancied a gorgeous afternoon tea, but we will definitely be going somewhere else after that experience!

The decor is quirky and retro without being unnecessarily hipster, and they do cream teas and all sorts of yummies.

Finally an independent coffee specialty cafe in Watford Hooray!!! And bloody great one at that too…read more The cafe is run by a lovely couple who are passionate about coffee and food. The cafe has that beautiful wooden floor finish, both in flooring and seating. They also have stools by the window if you want to watch the world go by. They have quirky lighting and lovely counter where you can see all that delicious food. Their are also framed photographs from the couple's worldly travels. I tried their Latte and I was in Heaven I had to sip that slow. I also had their festive porridge with the currents/sultanas on top, which was delicious. Their banana bread is to die for! Please get it toasted. I've also tried their homemade cake's which was a carrot cake and brownie which was lovely too. I also got to try their juicy, well seasoned sausage roll. They have an in and out pricing on their food it's roughly between £2-£5 but also do deals as well like coffee and bacon roll £3.10 from 8am to 11am. They have a corner where you can pick up flyers/leaflet of local events, and also a independent coffee magazine. The the also provide daily newspaper, and free wifi Its medium in size, so when it is packed, they do encourage you to share tables. The staff are friendly and have great customer service.
