   What a waste of money! Do not come here if you have allergies either. I have the worst stomach pains. First of all they got my order wrong! I originally wanted the minute steak focaccia but they said it couldn’t be gluten free and I said oh no it’s fine it probably won’t be good anyway because the bread won’t be focaccia so it’s not worth it, I said could I have the Italian sandwich instead please the girl said yes and I paid £12.95 which already sounds a bit ridiculous but anyway that’s how much it cost. I waited and got my sandwich once I got back to my office I opened the sandwich and they gave me the wrong one. They gave me the steak one which they told me wasn’t gluten free instead of the one I ordered. So they got my order wrong and also gave me something that they said wasn’t suitable for gluten free diet. I couldn’t go back to say something and complain because my lunch break is very short and I didn’t have time. FYI I didn’t eat the sandwich as I didn’t feel safe eating it. The bread was falling apart, it looked dry and had a few bits of steak and about 3 leaves of rocket. I’ve been gluten free for years now and if you get a good quality gluten free bread it doesn’t just fall apart and if it falls apart it’s a sign it’s out of date!! Maybe it wasn’t good quality and that’s it but can’t trust it now. Lunch ruined :(. I took one bite before I realised it’s the wrong sandwich and now I have the worst tummy ache ever. Can’t believe I spent £13 on this. Annoyed would be an understatement

   Never will be back! The almost empty cafe should have been a tell tale sign to not enter. My partner and I live in the local area and wanted to pop in for some breakfast after not visiting for a while, once we entered we sat down waiting to be presented with menus, we waited for over 20 minutes and not one of the waiting staff acknowledged our table or spoke breath to us. There was 2 other tables in the cafe with people, we were the third! We overheard one of the waiters saying to one of the other tables that they forget their drinks! I would have understood if the cafe was busy but it wasn’t. I’ve never had such awful customer service/ experience in my life. It was clearly apparent none of the ladies working there had much experience within hospitality as a simple hello and menus seemed to be too much to ask… it’s such a shame as we enjoyed our previous visits but will never come back again. Just to confirm this happened before midday on the 5th October….

   Enjoyed my breakfast here. Four or five other guests were present, so not too busy first thing on a Monday morning. My black coffee was great, although a little expensive if I'm honest. My full English was nicely presented and tasted good. Overall it was very filling. I'd certainly recommend this place if you're passing through the High St area of Tunbridge Wells.

   Sunday breakfast was great here. Chosen because it catered for gluten free and the GF quinoa and sweet potato hash were delicious. Eggs Royale very generous too.

   Our popular place for a lunch sandwich. They have a good range of choices, bread is fresh and always warm. I think they price way lower than what their food and decor deserves. Very spacious and cozy interior which to me is important. Staff is friendly. Definitely recommend.

   I met a friend here for breakfast earlier in the week, and we both went with the full English garden breakfast. You get to choose your eggs’ style, toast type, and any additions/replacement items are easy to make. The food was delicious! Not greasy at all, perfectly cooked hash browns (my fave) and all beautifully presented. Value for money is outstanding, drinks are extra, but that’s not a problem. When the food quality is this good, I’m happy to pay more! The staff are also amiable and attentive, and we were made to feel very welcome. I shall be returning.

   Delicious vegetarian/vegan lunch. An unassuming place that seemed like a coffee shop delivered a delicious, vegan lunch! Friendly staff.
