Great food and coffees. We sat outside. Was a very busy period when we arrived and it was initially tricky for service, but once things settled down the service was very good.

Lovely staff. Delicious food and today was free coffee day. What more can you ask for? The courtyard could do with a few plants to make it more appealing but otherwise was a good experience.
