We've been coming here since the Colchester branch first opened a few years ago. It is still our favourite place to stop for coffee and cake when we are in town (with or without our kids). Their cakes are amazing and they also do waffles, sandwiches and toasties etc. as well as afternoon tea. Nice atmosphere and the staff are always friendly. Ok their cakes aren't cheap but their coffee is similar price as other coffee places in town.
Very child friendly with plenty of high chairs although there isn't a lot of space to park buggies. At busy times I reckon you could park 2 maybe 3 buggies (without folding the buggies up) by the chairs/toilet.
They have a wide selection of cakes but it's worth noting at weekends they could sell out fast because of their 4 for £10 take away deal. There's been a few times we walked past just after 4.30pm on a Saturday and most of the cake slices were gone.
Amazing food, fantastic staff. Love this place. I will be back. Thank you 😊😊😊
Undaunted by reading the negative reviews, we chanced a visit for afternoon tea. Rather than intimidatingly small, we thought it cosy and to be warm and accommodating on a cold day. Greeted by friendly staff and served in good time, the food (3 plates: variety of freshly made sandwiches, cream scones & jam topped off by cream cakes) made good eating, its consumption facilitated by ample and gratifyingly palatable coffee. We shall revisit.
