I visited Coffee Barker with my family two months ago and I can't stop going back!

Yes It time to sit down and let your feet a rest from all the shopping and take a good rest with a good coffee and what a cake or something great have fun

Great atmosphere. Decor adds to the great atmosphere . Sandwich portion size is huge, possible to share one choice between two. I will definitely recommend and vist again.
