From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such a warm and friendly welcome. The service was excellent, and the staff made me feel really comfortable and looked after.

I had a coffee and an almond croissant, and both were absolutely delicious. The coffee was perfect, and the croissant was fresh, flaky, and full of flavour.

The café itself is lovely, it's bright, spacious, and has a really relaxing atmosphere, making it a great place to sit and enjoy your food. I can see myself spending plenty of time here in the future.

I can't wait to come back and try more from the menu. Highly recommend!

The staff was friendly but the soup was small and the bread very basic for €7.50.
