    As others have said, expect to pay London prices. There were no price tags on any of their bakery, we ordered anyway, total cost was about £15. Nice ambiance especially downstairs but the waitress was anything but welcoming, took away our plates and cups without making sure we had finished, making it feel like we were being rushed to leave and made no eye contact when we were leaving. Won't be back in a hurry.

    A very nice independent cafe. Good coffee and the pastries look great! Look at those huge croissants!!! Coffee is tasty and well priced. However, coffee serving is a bit small IMHO There is some parking out front, otherwise in residential streets near. Good cafe 👍

    Best coffee in town by a mile. Great shop, staff and premium everything from the bean to the bagels. Two floors, plenty of seating and very clean. Highly recommended. The cream cheese/avocado with sriacha bagel is amazing.

    Nice cosy café, P.S. The double espresso at Saints is served the same size as a normal espresso in any country with proper coffee culture. Saying this as portuguese. Coffee was good.

    Absolutely love it! It’s a small cafe that has both indoor and outdoor seating. We enjoyed having a latte and a hit chocolate that come with a mountain of marshmallows. They also provide a variety of food alternative that are diary free and vegan for those with allergies. I will definitely be coming back to this lovely local gem place.

    Never been told in my life apart from being a child where to sit as I was working on my laptop, i wasn’t aloud to be upstairs cause she asked if I was working. WHAT. I was put down stairs in a basement where the Wi-Fi was broken , the English lady was rude to me and also gave my sandwich to someone else. There was only two plug sockets downs stairs. Of which. We’re used up. What a joke and I paid almost 15 for sandwich, coffe and a drink . I will say the polish lady was very polite there and helpful. Seriousl. You know this is genuine as my Google has a photo of me . So ignore those positive ones without a photo there are all fake. This is a rude café atmosphere

    A charming cafe near the hospital. The service is polite, but they took a while to get us. The coffee and cake were tasty and prices are reasonable.

    Superb coffee hot or iced, kale smoothies, sourdough toasties, croissants & cakes. Open everyday, so perfect for pit stops when working from home. And yes, I am proud of my UKLockdown jelly belly. Open again for British summertime 2021.

I must SAY They serve the Best coffee in Maidenhead. They don’t want to sell me the shop.. I want the all the coffee ☕️ 😋..

    Nice coffee, nice pastry, however, the staff always make you feel less than welcome. It is also overpriced for what it is. I needed the Wi-Fi password went to them twice, gave me the same password with huffing and puffing which didn’t work. Left without being able to do what I needed to do.

    I love it here and am so grateful to have a local quality cafe nearby. The staff are lovely, coffee is good and pastries are huge. I don’t understand the negative reviews of this cafe. Yes, the prices are a little steep but what do you expect - this cafe is trying to survive in a local neighbourhood where there isn’t tonnes of immediate footfall. I love coming here for a quiet coffee alone, or to meet with friends. Lots of room downstairs.

    Lovely surprise when we went for a quick sandwich and found a lovely cosy basement seating area, which turned this small frontage cafe into a great lunchtime venue. The food was great, and the coffee tasted good.

    Went in for a coffee as I wanted to support a local independent, but staff were not clear about which foods were gluten free and disagreed among themselves. The foods they thought were gluten free were surrounded by crumbs from adjacent pastries and at risk of cross contamination, so I left. Allergy awareness isn't just life and death, it is good business. Sorry, but l just couldn't take the chance.

    First time at Saints Cafe. There were 6 in our group, 3 of whom were wheelchair users. The entrance looks clean and tidy with good wheelchair access. A customer opened the door to assist us in. A welcome atmosphere is clean and tidy in the cafe . There were no available tables for us. One member of staff said that she would ask some customer if they would mind moving to another part of the cafe. I said that was very kind, but we could sit outside . ( it was a bit chilly). Some customers were happy to move. Then, the manager or owner insisted that we would be better off in another part of the cafe to be accessed by going back outside to the rear of the building. So off we trotted down the path down a sleep sloped drive to the rear of the building. The rear entrance has a 1 foot high step. Quite a struggle for people in wheelchairs. We did enjoy the overpriced drink in what could be described as Bunker Chic style , Mmmmmm .

    Discovered this place when looking for a route to the hospital and wanted to come to try out the doughnuts. There weren't any when I visited so came away with a hot cross sticky bun (£3) instead, and it was beautiful. Can't wait to come again as looks modern and clean too.

  • 3/5 Billy M. 4 months ago on Google
    Just had 2 take away flat whites and 2 cookies.... £12.60!!! No complaints about the staff or the drinks/food. But astronomical prices

  • 3/5 David K. 1 year ago on Google
    Friendly staff. Coffee is slightly above average but not the best. The chosen bean didn’t have the depth of flavor and the beverage was a tad to watery because steam nozzle wasn’t trothing the milk but instead was injecting water into the beverage. Pastries were tasty. However, the bacon roll was soggy on the inside because of the condensation caused when the bacon is cooked and left to cool in the bread roll and then reheated if you want it hot.

    Amazing gem of the cafe. Staff are so friendly and inviting. The coffee is sooooo good.

  • 5/5 Marc A. 1 year ago on Google
    Popular local, dog-friendly cafe located at the corner of an intersection with charming indoor seating and rustic outdoor seating. Staff always very friendly kindly offering dogs free doggie biscuits. Delicious coffee. Many more tables available downstairs.

    Lovely independent cafe with friendly and attentive staff. Modern and unique vibe, also selling locally made food items. Nice selection of drinks and pastries and lunchtime sandwiches. If we support local independents they will thrive and hopefully more will pop up. Keep doing what you’re doing

  • 3/5 Alex A. 1 year ago on Google
    For a local cafe, I think some of the staff need to be more welcoming. Most of the staff friendly, but one chap really was quite a patronising so and so today. Shame really and won’t come back

  • 5/5 B R. 1 year ago on Google
    cozy place, seemingly popular around the neighborhood and pet friendly. They got a lot of room downstairs as opposed to the cramped ground level. But the staircase is a bit too steep. I was worried the phone/ wifi signals wouldn't reach there. I didn't actually try it because while downstairs looks great but someone was coughing and the place didn't seem to have any means to get fresh air so I didn't risk it. the coffees are served in regular and large sizes only, but the large cup was many other places regular size. The sandwich was good and the people there are nice, polite and friendly. There are seats outside in the pavement but it was a wet and cold day when I was there. the size and space aren't "faults" so they get my 5 star!

  • 5/5 Claudio T. 1 year ago on Google
    Very friendly and welcoming staff. Great pastries and fresh puddings and the cappuccino was excellent. Highly recommended

  • 3/5 Andi G. 1 year ago on Google
    I usually like the place, but today there were a few very inconsiderate customers who were annoying everyone with their dogs barking all the time. You couldn't enjoy a good cup with coffee in peace.

  • 4/5 Sophie H. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent coffee. Visited looking for breakfast but options were limited to pastries and cold sandwiches. Kind of expected more breakfast choice like egg on toast or french toast, but not sure if they have a kitchen?

  • 2/5 Alicia M. 1 year ago on Google
    Writing this review wishing it will be helpful for this business. The cafe's location is great for the local community and the coffee drinks are great. Interior oaky. It has rather a city high street pricing and I find it a bit too much for a local cafe. Another negative review point is that I often feel not welcomed. Some staff needs customer service training. My last visit was unpleasant enough that I don't think I will come back to this cafe.

  • 1/5 Sam A. 1 year ago on Google
    I used to like this place... Slowly but surely they've gone downhill. I used to drive up especially to get a coffee from here (as I did today), and they are served me a flat white in a regular cup (rather the smaller flat white cups).... Completely diluted the coffee. Felt like I was having hot milk. Really disappointed!! I asked the 'barrista' whether it was a flat white, he confirmed. So I am super disappointed. Won't be going back again....
