👍👍 Amazing coffee. The food is delicious, authentic Italian food, the most incredible Avocado on toast you will ever have. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. They have alternative milks, vegan options and gluten free Pizza. My new fav cafe in Bedminster!

Coffee store
👍👍 Delicious coffee and friendly service! I would highly recommend Mec. The space is also pleasant with a good amount of seating that isn't totally visible if you were to just glance in walking past. It could have been a little warmer inside given it was a chilly day. I'll be back

👍👍 We came across this on a circular walk and it's a real gem. Friendly service, good drink selection and amazing cakes. I would definitely recommend the fruit crumble bar. Lots of places to sit in or out of the sun.
