Stevenage Cafe is one of my family's favourite places to visit of a weekend for brunch…read more The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, and are absolutely wonderful with children. The food is delicious, yet it really isn't expensive at all, which is amazing given the portion sizes (you won't need to eat for a week afterwards). The seating is a little close together, but it is not uncomfortable, even when they are busy. I really cannot fault them, and would definitely recommend everyone pay them a visit.

I am not Starbucks loyal, I do not prefer Starbucks over Costa (Nero shall not be named). I go to…read moreStarbucks over Costa because I can pay with my phone. I feel very sophisticated and high tech doing this.... 1 point. Starbucks is usually a safe bet. You are not going to get coffee that tastes of nothing, (see other review). You ask for a skinny flat white you will usually get one. On occasion you will catch them making it with full fat milk, but they happily correct it when they realise you watch. Today I have had a skinny flat white with sugar free hazelnut shot (Costa no longer do sugar free hazelnut for some reason) and a Croque Monsieur, which is basically a fancy toasted ham panini with mustard. Flat white was very well done, tasted and looked lovely. Well done Matt you have redeemed yourself the last time you cocked up my porridge. The Croque Monsieur took some time, I think the other barista forgot about it because after a 'withering stare' it was promptly brought to me. It was however not sliced in half. Now I'm not meaning to sound petty, I don't mind not having my food sliced for me. Honest! But when they provide you with a plastic knife because they either think that A. You will stab somebody Or B. Steal the knife It makes it exceedingly difficult to slice yourself, but I gave it a good go. It was good as toasted ham sandwiches go, couldn't fault it. To wrap this up, whether you will get a good or bad experience depends on the staff and how busy they are. This Starbucks seems to be full of young teenagers and that sometimes shows in the speed and quality. On an ending note this Starbucks is also popular with large groups of teenagers who have around 1 drink shared between 6. So good luck getting a seat on prime times.

When I got there I found out it shuts before the advertised time on the web. 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!
