Reviews for The Gateway Café
It’s a super stressful place to eat on a busy day like today. The system for getting food, then finding a table means you have dozens of folk holding full trays of food milling around, ready to pounce on any seat they can get, while individuals sit at tables for four.Cakes and coffee outside are delicious and a lot less hassle.
The food is cafeteria style and not well priced. Their coffee is good.The interior affords a view of part of the woodland; the terrace part of the cafe offering a pleasant repast on a mild day.

Lacklustre greeting and welcome. Well prepared cappuccino and baked snack. Some counter staff seemed oddly detached from attentive and focused customer service. Got the feeling some of them would rather be doing something else, somewhere else.
