   Cozy cafe, great fresh food and tasty baked goods. Does get a little busy and seating is somewhat tight/ limited

   Called here first thing this Saturday morning expecting good things after somebody's recent YouTube video. Cold water with lemon was brought to the table immediately which was a nice touch. Cappuccino and Americano followed and was ok. Upon ordering the breakfast they said that they couldn't swap items but could takeaway and add items....not sure of the difference or how that works. The table was sticky and badly designed as the gaps were full of old food. The omelette was average at best. The English breakfast had strange tepid sausages that were heavily processed and flavourless, the fried eggs were overdone and the yolks hard, bacon, tomato and mushroom good, beans good though near cold and the hash brown raw and cold in the middle. The white toast was rock hard and barely edible. No check back, the singular lass who was running the show probably didn't have the time. After a while, and the table still not cleared, I approached the counter to pay. I wasn't asked how our meal had been, but I was asked if I would like to leave a tip! An extremely disappointing experience.

   Homely feel, service was warm friendly and professional. Food was good and we liked the Polish quadrant of the menu. Thank you! We just wish there were some more vegan options

   We traveled from York a very extensive time traveling to get there because of the nature of the roads -was it worth it? Yes, although we only had 15 minutes to go to closing Time , absolute hidden gem. Next time, just hope to get there soon enough for the café side as well . I hope you’ve stuck with me this far , because this is when we get to the incredible steak and Stilton pie without doubt the best steak pie I’ve ever eaten the Stilton was fantastic , integrated into the pie. It was both visually and taste wise immaculate. . The other cakes were nice too .

   Collected lucky bag from here and it had a hair on the loaf of bread and paid £4 for it and good in the bag valued at less. I have got lucky bags from Morrisons for £5 and had double value goods in it same with Greggs , you need to change your ways or bin the lucky bag

   Portions are small to say the least had a small breakfast which consisted of single sausage, egg and 3 slices (not whole) tomatoes.

   An unexpected pleasure. Friendly and comfortable cafe with a great menu that mixes standard "english" breakfasts with a range of really excellent and interesting Polish fare. Recommended!

   Family breakfast. Everything was lovely. Even though it was breakfast we wanted to try the Polish dumplings. These were our favourite item of the morning. After breakfast, we visited their bakery next door. I was impressed with the selection which included sourdough loaves, polish loaves, pastries etc. We bought a few things and enjoyed them all.
