Stepping through the doors of this charming cafe, one immediately senses a palpable sense of community imbued throughout its cozy confines. The establishment is celebrated not only for its rich brews and delightful pastries but also for the warm and attentive service that makes every patron feel like a regular. Despite recent changes to the menu—transitioning from French patisserie classics like crepes and sausage rolls to a more traditional fare—the cafe remains a beloved local haunt. Noteworthy menu offerings include exquisite vegan goods and a memorable bacon, brie, and cranberry sandwich. It’s the kind of place where staff remember your name and dietary preferences; indeed, it is common for them to accommodate personal requests with a friendly conversation. While the current coffee blend, Origin, divides opinions, earlier favorites like Finehorse have left patrons yearning for their return. Nevertheless, the cafe continues to thrive as a community hub, bridging cultures and generations in a singularly simple yet special way.
