    The sweet delicacies here are lush, I’ve not tried the savouries yet but if the sweet treats are anything to go by, it’ll no doubt be delicious. A couple of years ago I had a cake ordered from another establishment for my sons birthday which unfortunately was not forthcoming, but this place saved me, I popped in hoping to buy a cake but they had nothing, but the lovely man in the shop asked me to wait 20 mins while he put something together and produced the most amazing profiterole cake, my son was over the moon. Thank you for saving the day x

    The food is excellent, and the staff are lovely. But for some reason, the coffee machine and cakes are at opposite sides of the building. If a coffee machine were to be put by the cakes the server could make the coffee when she gives the cakes, and this place would be perfect.
