Rubbish customer service! Didn't even get what I ordered and upon driving back during my lunchbreak to return the food, no apology given howsoever!

Great cakes & coffee but always takes forever for the girls to take our order, almost gave up today. Advice, take the order then take a while to bring it, much nicer.

This was our first visit. Staff were very friendly all areas were clean and tidy. Drinks were piping hot and delicious and our food was also fabulous. We will definitely be back.

As a return visitor, really disappointed with the service and quality of the food we received last weekend. It appears the quality has really gone downhill in the past few months. Firstly, it took a good 20 minutes for our drinks to arrive - which we can waver, but sadly the food we could not. The order was not read back to us, and sadly a ridiculous amount of mistakes followed. One family member didn't receive their food as it was "missed" from our order. We ordered an optional extra to a meal which didn't materialise, and another family member had a sandwich with little to no filling and subsequently was returned. The replacement meal, along with the 'no show' meal took a good 30 minutes to arrive, and when queried - we were told that there were new orders and ours was at the end of the list. No sauces were offered and no checks were provided throughout the meal. We also witnessed two/three tables leaving due to poor service during our time there. The worst, however, was the manager who questioned her employee about whether we were the table that had made a complaint, but no apology or explanation was provided by her. A terrible example. This was supposed to be a celebratory meal and unfortunately, we wish we had stayed at home. This was our 'go-to' place in Leighton Buzzard but sadly we won't be revisiting.

Not high expectations. Ordered from the menu. A Saturday at noon. Baked potato and spicy beans. Waitress eventually returned. They had run out of spicy beans. I am gluten free so asked for something else from the menu on a baked potato. She went to ask. Different waitress returned and said it wasn't possible as they were busy. We have been there quite a few times before. We left and went to Cafe Sorelli. Excellent service and non sticky tables.

Lovely place, the garden is fab. Food is good value, however, the wait can be a little long, but it’s worth it.

Brunch is ok, but it took a while to be served . However the place is

I don't usually have issue here but today has made me so upset that I'm having to make a review about it. We arrived before the kitchen had closed (1.30pm and kitchen closes at 2pm) but were met with a chef who had nothing to cook for someone dairy free and no want or will to change anything on the menu. All I wanted was a jacket potato and they wouldn't put anything that would go on a sandwich onto a jacket potato. (EG wouldn't swap spicy bean, which they did not have, for salmon or chickpea as it wasn't going on bread). I have also been told before that their mayo was dairy free and now their tuna is premixed with a dairy mayo therefore I couldn't have that either. If you were vegan you would have pretty much been going hungry. Thankfully the waitress did not charge us for our drinks as she also felt bad about the situation. It seems wholly unfair to say that you can't change anything on the menu if they don't have half the menu anyway. I am really disappointed as this is usually my favourite place to take people and now I won't be able to return without thinking of this service.
Ordered a ‘spicy Katsu baguette’ and it was just chicken Mayo… nothing spicy or katsu about it. I double checked it was the right item and the waitress confirmed. Slow service and dirty toilets with no loo roll. Much better places to go in Town. Probably won’t be returning

This is a very lovely place to meet with friends for coffee and brunch. It’s a great location and has a lovely outdoors area. This is a dog friendly cafe which is great. It’s got a mixture of seating and tables. The menu is very good. The quality of food is good however I have visited a number of times, improvements needed in my view. -service is slow, getting your order taken and then your food can take a while. -staff always seem grumpy, never get a smile they walk around looking unhappy. They do not give a welcome positive vibe. I do think this place could be outstanding but staff training and mood does need to be developed in my opinion.

One of my favourite cafés in Leighton Buzzard. Delightful courtyard with table service. Great range of cakes and a nice latte. Perfect for a leisurely coffee or lunch. Take away available.

Tasty food and a lovely atmosphere. It is one of the few places in England that can cook black pudding without turning it into a solid, burned hockey puck. Highly recommend the breakfast sandwiches and the Baked Sweet Potato with Sticky beef or Chorizo and cheese.

I like this place and will visit again if they don't mess the one thing we are there for. But I must say on this occasion, I was disappointed as the breakfast came cold sausage, bacon overcooked and dry ( seamed pre cooked). Toast was hard, not enough butter offered to even things out. The mushrooms could do with a bit of seasoning. The waffle was store bought and also dry and flaky like it had sat out in the open a while. I must say, overall, very disappointed and shocked as I had raved about the place to my daughter.Kid-friendliness: They had high chairs for the little babas, and a children's menu.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options.
