    As others have said, coffee can be decent but service can be slow and sometimes staff forget basic customer service skills. There's no need to give people an eye-roll or attitude when asking a simple question. Today my coffee was quite sour and undrinkable (actually curdled the milk!), hence the one star review. Sour coffee + unfriendly staff does not make for a good impression.

    Fantastic coffee. No fancy coffees, but the actual coffee they do serve is excellent and the staff are helpful. Snacks available too.

    Coffee is pretty good over here. Some of the staff members aren't that great. Toilet isn't really available unless you go outside the coffee shop to find the toilet. I would come back for the coffee and enjoy the view or sit down session elsewhere.

    Excellent coffee, best in the area. Friendly team. However please speed up your delivery as it is extremely slow. Every time I am in there, even when not busy, my coffee seems to take much longer than It should.

    Friendly folk and great treats. Coffee is best around here. Service can be slow. Four people working yet only one person making one coffee at a time. Milk is often warm not hot which may suit some people.

    Delicious breakfast items and quality coffee.

    Service is extremely slow. Staff is more interested in socialising than making coffees. Staff tried to kick us out at 1730 and said that coffee was no longer being served despite closing time listed as 1800... with an eye roll. Coffee may be good but there are other options around that don't come with attitude.

    Great space, super open to working while enjoying a cup. Cakes are great. It is mostly inside with not great views but the building is lovely.
