The eggs benedict was done just right, with the hollandaise on the side. A lovely start to the day.

The scones were a real highlight. Warm, crumbly, and they give you a generous amount of clotted cream and jam. Just perfect with a pot of tea.

The afternoon tea presentation was spot on. Sandwiches fresh, cakes properly moist. Good tea selection too. The quirky decor is there, but honestly, the food itself is what stood out for me.

Popped in for the Desi breakfast. The halwa puri was the highlight &ndash; really tasty and filling. A good, solid meal to start the day.

The bacon sandwich was really good - nice thick bacon and proper bread. The full breakfast was fine, hot and decent value.

The scones were the star here. Big, warm, and crumbly, served with a really good quality strawberry jam. The clotted cream was spot on. A proper, no-fuss cream tea. The place itself was quiet and comfortable, which was nice.

The loose leaf tea selection is really nice. But the bagels are the star - so fresh and stuffed full. The little garden out back is perfect for a sunny afternoon. Just a lovely, quiet spot.

Lovely little tea room. The afternoon tea was generous - two rounds of sandwiches, a big scone, and a proper slice of cake. The tea selection was decent, though I would have loved a glass of something sparkling to go with it. No rush at all, which was nice.

Nice spot for a relaxed afternoon tea. The scones were lovely, but the real star was the tea list &ndash; found a great Oolong that paired perfectly.

Lovely vintage vibe here. The cafetiere coffee was good, but the trio of macaroons really stood out. The blue caramel one was spot on &ndash; not too sweet. Staff were friendly and looked sharp. Prices felt fair for what you get.

Busy spot by the canal, had to wait a bit. The salt beef sandwich was good, proper meat. But the spinach garnish felt a bit heavy, watercress would&#39;ve been nicer. Solid spot for a cuppa and a bite.

The food is always fresh and tasty. But the coffee&#39;s a bit hit or miss. Had a lovely cappuccino last week, but today&#39;s was just okay. Still a nice spot for a quiet lunch.

Staff were lovely and the place had a nice vibe. Food was tasty, but the portion sizes felt a bit small for the price. I left still feeling a bit peckish, which was a shame.

Lovely view of the cathedral from the terrace on a sunny day. Had a coffee and a slice of their carrot cake - it was moist and not too sweet. A nice, quiet spot for a little break.
