I have been coming here for a while as it's been a really lovely dog friendly cafe. I'm not sure if there's been different management or other but sadly the past couple of times I've popped in it's been unpleasant. Don't get me wrong the chiefs are lovely and cook some lovely veggies options. Sadly it's more the waiters/waitresses. I noticed they go through staff very quickly. Plus the lead waiter (dark hair and beard) the past couple of times has been rude and has made me feel uncomfortable. Sadly due to this I don't plan to come back. Such a shame as the team before were lovely.

Friendly place, good menu, great food done well. Breakfast is personally recommended, with proper coffee. One of my favourite

This was great value for money! Me and my mum got a panini and they were delicious and a great portion size. The staff were also so friendly and the service was quick.

Had the award winning breakfast, and left wondering what the award was for. A combination of over done and under done food arrived on my plate, and I literally mean combination. Sausages half burnt (noticeable in taste) and half ok. Poached egg over done with little runny yolk for dipping/mixing with beans. Beans and bacon...well you can't screw up these luckily. Mushrooms undercooked. For the cost of the food generally across their menu and the look of the place (as it look good) I expected more. Sadly not a place I'll be popping back into.

Unfortunately we waited an hour for our food. Despite being told there was a wait didn't expect it to be an hour! Not sure why such a delay but seems to be a theme reading the reviews. Food was nice when it eventually came but not a great experience overall. Staff were apologetic. Could simply be resolved with a second cook in the kitchen. Not cheap either. £10.50 for a club sandwich and small salad garnish

I'm very disappointed. Food took 45 mins to arrive. Not only that, there were 3 of us, and the food was brought up to us with a couple of minutes gap between each person . By time food arrived our drinks were cold and the toast came up as if it was an after thought. Such a shame because it's normally such a nice little place to eat . I will say this , it is nothing against the waiting staff because I believe they were understaffed ,so maybe that needs to be considered for future reference

Long wait with no update from staff - left before we even got our food. Too much concentration on delivery orders and not enough on actual customers in the cafe.Second time this has happened to us in here .

Overpriced food with small portions. Food tasted good however.
Lovely place to eat. Friendly staff and value for money.

Been coming here for years, butburs gone downhill lately. Huge wait times on food, things arriving on your plate which wasnt on the menu? I had a Cajun burger, it arrived in Warburtons thin bread, no Brioche bun as stated, and the chips were soggy, just poor quality. My boys egg on toast took 40 minutes. We wont be returning.

Went as is dog friendly. Thought we would give it a 2nd try. Food once again took 40 minutes for scrambled egg on toast. Other meals not as described on the menu. When questioning the time for food was told they cook one meal at a time fresh but when questioned why 2 other tables who ordered after us had theirs they said it was pre-prepared food….. small portions and not worth the cost, there are many other ‘cafes’ in Epping that are worth your custom/money.

A lovely, friendly cafe on the High Street. Very welcoming and helpful. My daughter was provided with good advice when choosing and had what she described as a yummy earl grey tea. My black coffee was good too. We shared a delicious cinnamon French toast. This was thoughtfully served split on two plates and nicely presented. We would definitely have it again. If you are after a more conventional breakfast, I’m sure that would good too and there is plenty of choice for breakfast or lunch.
