Made to order at the counter

Paninis go on the grill when you order them, so they come out hot. Cakes are cut and served by the slice. Ask us what is on the counter today and we will talk you through it.

The cake counter is the thing people come back for, from the strawberry gateau to the slices lined up beside it. What is out changes, so have a look when you get in. Ask the staff what they would put with your coffee.

The mocha was nice and chocolatey and not too sweet. The chicken tikka panini was a good size and delicious. The red cake was nice and fruity.
