Nice place. Reasonably priced.lots of sitting space both inside and out.The staff could improve on FOOD HYGIENE though. Same staff is Handling cash and touching the foods with ungloved hands - very gross.

They have recently refreshed their menu and it is fantastic. Their hot breakfast items are better than sit down restaurants or pubs in the area. Do yourself a favor and take a stroll in a wonderful park and grab some brunch next weekend here.

The worst oat latte I have ever tasted. Coffee was too strong and tasted burnt. The oat milk was salty and the froth looked like dirty dishwater. If they charge £ 3.60 for a tiny cup of this they t really should know what they’re doing.

The lady at the till was touching pastry with her hands and although she was wearing gloves, she was touching the till and everything else whilst wearing the same gloves. I bought the pastry but couldn't eat it as couldn't get away from the thought how poor the hygiene is. When I asked her why she wouldn't use a food clip, she said they sanitise daily. I think it's a poor excuse because whatever they sanitise the till with cannot go on the food. And also surely she can inadvertently touch other stuff e.g. bin, dirty surfaces, and then all of that ends up on your food. It truly makes me sad and frustrated that people don't understand such basic hygiene standards when working in hospitality. This is not okay!

Directly opposite the observatory and does good coffee and a wide selection of cakes. It has a large outdoor seating area.

Coffee small for price and tastes like a supermarket value instant coffee, can't understand the popularity of a cafe that is so dirty outside and rats alover , why so pricey?? One visit and 100% sure, no return.
Great hot chocolate and lovely breakfast food. The string hoppers and pancakes are a delight, as are most of their baked goods. Great spot for breakfast if you're in the park

So annoyed that I had to create an account on tripadvisor and share my experience. 1) I went there when wearing masks was mandatory and three staff members did not properly wear their masks. 2) Suggestion for the manager: please take a shower and wash your clothes. 3) I ordered babyccino and the cup was half empty and the milk was hot. Babies don't drink hot milk. What is a rip off? 4) There were few horrible looking sandwiches left which I didn't want to try in the dead of the heat. God knows how long they had been there under the counter for. 5) Please get rid of the flies. I know its an open door place and has large doors but still please try to do something about it. Thanks.

Went to the cafe at around 3pm on the first weekend of July. Half the staff, thats nearly 5 out of the 10 staff members I saw had either their face masks hanging below the chin or their noses were outside the face masks. And, that's two staff members in the kitchen, two at the checkout tills, and one in the bakery section. Ridiculous! It is illegal for an establishment to do such a thing. And, worst thing is that I saw the manager standing in the middle of the cafe. Are you lost or something? The seating outside the cafe, by the lake, is not socially distanced either. There is hardly a distance of one meter between the tables. Now regarding the food, its about 3 out of 5. Because this is the only place inside the park so people have no choice but to go there.
