We were staying close by so walked into this small and cute cafe. Cappuccino and lemon cheese cake was very yummy. Ended up going again for coffee and munchies. Friendly staff and good food. They have cakes, muffins, sorbets and savoury dishes too.

We were staying next door at the Nettle and Fern hotel and decided in sit here for coffee one afternoon. We ordered carrot cake and black-forest cake served in a cup. We enjoyed the ambience (great place for selfies even!) and the food. We forgot...to order coffee after all this! :) We were so satisfied with just that. By the way, I noticed there was a convenience store inside (on the right of the sitting area). If you have a couple of hours to spare, it is a good gastronomic distraction and a happy place to chat.More

We had Capuccino and Hazelnut latte, veg and non veg Puffs and Margherita Pizza. Everything was delicious, can't praise cappuccino enough. Chuck your Starbucks and Costas of the world, this place takes the Cake for serving the best coffees.

Ordered tiramisu pastry , was spoilt. I had 3 scoops of ice-cream. The attendant serving had an objection to the fact I ate 3 scoops. Furthermore he bills for 4 scoops instead of 3. If this happened once one would ignore the extra billing as...a mistake, repetition of the same is obviously intentional. The attitude of the staff towards a solo female tourist was disgusting and pathetic. I think people who drink tequila shots or hard drinks are more acceptable as opposed to a lady who has 3 scoops of ice-cream. Never recommend this place and very unhygienic.More

We were passing by and the smell of coffee made us walk in. Very happy we did. Tasted their apple cake fresh out of the oven. Yum. The coffee was great too. The owner Varsha an ex-banker has put her heart and soul into it...and it shows. It is out of the way so not many tourists come here which is a shame. Definitely worth a visit.More

Sent everything in a dilapidated state. Ice cream melted over the fudge. Took 40 minutes to deliver even though they told us it will be delivered within 20. Asked for delivery charge without communicating to me. Yelled at me when I complained.
