😠 I was really looking forward to visiting this café, highly advertised as being Greek and was very disappointed.

    I was really looking forward to visiting this café, highly advertised as being Greek and was very disappointed. I had hoped that they might serve proper Greek coffee, όπως κάνουμε με μπρίκι, but alas, Hellas, no. I decided, as it was a beautiful morning, to sit outside. It's a rather strange sensation as everything is on a slope, and the tables face up hill. A bit weird really, but that's the geography of Oxton. The place was busy-ish, and as I was waiting at a table outside for a friend, I could hear a member of staff practically yelling at the customers to form an orderly line! It's not huge inside, so I'm not sure how she wanted this done. I almost left at that point. As a paying customer, I don't expect to be admonished in such a manner as this, I felt it was just rude, no matter how busy they were. As my friend was running considerably late, I ventured in to order a Greek coffee, which as previously mentioned, they didn't have. I was, however, assured by the server, that she was a highly qualified professional barista (although I didn't ask for her qualifications) and the coffee was from Greece. Pointing out that this wasn't exactly the same thing, (to a "professional barista", this was almost a facepalm moment), I reluctantly ordered an Americano. It arrived in a cup that was awkward to drink out of. The cup looks interesting design wise, but difficult to pick up and grip when full of hot liquid. The coffee itself was also disappointing. I was glad that I had a glass of water, at least that was potable! I soon decided that this place wasn't as great as I expected or hoped, so I called my friend, suggested she meet me elsewhere at a venue if her choice, and left the undrinkable coffee. I didn't eat anything, although there seemed to be a decent variety of Greek pastries and pittas. The treatment of the customers kind of took my appetite away. Can't really recommend and I think we probably won't go again.

    We go here quite regularly as we live so close. The coffee is always tasty and hot, the mini cakes are delicious and according to my daughter the babycinno is the best around. Jenny is always so friendly and nothing is ever too much trouble. When we do sit in on the rare occasion she takes the time to check on customers and make sure everything is good.

    The cakes are unbelievably good. Tried a few different ones and all were utterly lush. Am fully prepared to try everything on their menu over time. 😆
