From the outside this place looks very appealing but all this dissappears the moment you step inside. The first thing I noticed was the old dirty looking curling plastic table cloths which look like they have been there far too long. There was no greeting from the staff member. We ordered just drinks - teas and a latte. The latte and the tea were good but the cups and the teapot were in need of a good scrub. These weren't the only things that could do with a clean - the glass on the fridge which held the sandwich fillings was filthy. The chopping board behind this fridge had food left on it from the previous sandwich and this wasn't cleaned up in the length of time we were there. A plate with some kindof food I guess to be used in sandwich making sat out of the fridge the entire time we were there too. Although I didn't eat anything seeing this I think justifies my 0 star rating for food. The floor in general and the area around the coffee/tea making set-up all looked quite shabby. Teapots, we noticed, are stored just off the floor near a bin! While we were there a customer came in a waited a good 5 minutes at the counter for service and eventually left as the 3 staff were in the kitchen and no one even noticed she came in. The only decent thing was the price - €7.50 for 2 teas and a latte, not too bad. All in all though a very dissappointing experience from somewhere with such a pleasant exterior and with the potential to be a lovely little cafe. Possibly serves as a greasy-spoon type caff place but certainly not what I was looking for - would defineatly not return.

My experience here was excellent, I went here to meet a friend for a coffee and it was ideal, albeit I only had a coffee and a scone, it was delicious. The atmosphere was perfect and the service was also excellent, it is the ideal place to meet someone and spend a few hours chatting. I would definately go back again.
