Tesco cafe Tuesday 28/10/25 around 1pm. Busy as expected especially with kids off school BUT 20 minutes just in the que with 5 or 6 people in front of me. Only 1 person on the serving counter. She was literally doing the work of 3 people-taking orders, making teas and coffees, serving customers even taking some to customer tables. She also had to keep running in the back for clean cups, teapots.... Fair play to that member of staff who single handedly deserves a pay rise but in all I doubt I'd do back until there's more staff and the que doesn't take so long.

Got cutlery that was clearly dirty. Took 25 minute to be served and another 30 for the food to come. Iβd avoid this place tbh.

Third time I've been here, first was a really nice breakfast and on the 2nd and third occasions, my sausage wasn't cooked properly. My third and last time also had to ask twice for a clean up, when asked for another cup, because the replacement cup was still not clean, the lady said with a snotty attitude is that clean enough for you. Won't be visiting again.

Nice food for what it is. Myself and my wife visited when waiting for our car to be valeted, I got the posh beans on toast and my wife the ham & cheese panini. Mine should have had a poached egg but for some reason they was unable to make this but was able to make a fried egg to go on top, it was still nice, with BBQ beans and toast. The attempt at the salad is something to questioned. My wifeβs panini was plain and simple, but she enjoyed it. It was piping hot when it arrived. I would return but only if I was using the store for other things, I wouldnβt specifically go for the cafe. For drinks we got a can of Diet Coke and a bottle of oasis Cost was approximately Β£13 Not many seats available when we arrived, it was loud but this canβt be helped as itβs in a superstore.

It's clean, so there's a positive. That's about it. The ultimate brownie can hardly be called ultimate. Never seen a chocolate based treat look so weedy and sorry for itself. Scored service one star since I was asked if I wanted my coffee to drink in or take out, however it was apparently assumed I wanted the largest (and most of expensive) offering. Luckily I'd already scoped the pricing and was able to stop myself being over charged. Let me be clear this is predatory behaviour and very very poor. I can only assume the store is trying to up its takings/profits. In a cost of living crisis a large retailer shouldn't be employing shady tactics such as this. The coffee - tasteless brown instant. Oh dear.

I know the staff have been the brunt of most of the negative reviews, and this is the case yet again. The young girl was just plain rude and had the personality of an Ameoba. I knew going for the eggs benedict was taking a risk, and it turned out to be a risk which didn't pay off. The staff need to either be shown how to make hollandaise sauce properly, or tesco need to supply it. Not good at all.

Great food lovely and hot and freshly cooked and lovely staff. But will say it's sometimes understaffed and the ones that are there are running past themselves to cope. Was served by Jeanette this morning and she was lovely as always. It's obviously very popular so I would say need more staff
