Food is good, coffee is ok but prices a bit too high for the area (and what you get). They're part of the Saints family so we expected the coffee to be a bit better. Food is good and you can see they're making an effort. The issue overall is price and to a lesser extent service. Prices are circa 20% higher than what we'd deem as acceptable and for the price (in the area) - you should expect more. Lastly, don't expect any deals, no coffee + croissant or discounts. We visited on opening day and even then - nada.

Popped in today for the 1st time, slightly hungover. Great friendly service from a young cashier and got a great chicken burger and chips. Also found out why the area is called Wessex! Big, thanks, and a great pick me up.

Food was tasty and fast service. Only issue is plate was taken before everyone at the table was finished eating.

One of my favorites spots! I’ve become a regular and you can often find me grabbing a morning coffee or a midday brunch with my fellow Mums. Always great customer service and the food never disappoints.

Tried this place out for the first time as I live local. Nice ambiance to the place service was good and prompt. Only thing letting it down is the prices, found all items on the menu to expensive. Tea £3.40 / baked beans on toast £8.50.

Met with a friend for a cheeky brunch as this was a halfway spot for us. Did not disappoint this cafe. Will defo be coming back at some point. We had the smashed avo & poached eggs on sourdough bread. Eggs cooked perfectly. £30 for brunch and coffee. Sunday midday, slightly busy, Atmosphere chilled, clean restaurant, staff very polite, plenty of free parking outside, portion were good and food tasted very nice. Keep up the brilliant cooking
