The sticky toffee pudding was a revelation. The cosy, book-lined room made it even better.

The little outdoor tables are perfect for watching the world go by. Had a delicious breakfast and a really good fruit smoothie there. Just a nice, relaxed spot.

The crispy fried squid was so fresh, and the passion prawns from the specials were a lovely light option. Everything tasted so clean.

The set menu. Good value. Portions are generous. The curries were the highlight, really flavourful. A solid choice for a filling meal.

Been coming here for years. Their pasta selection is the real deal, always fresh and cooked just right. It&#39;s a bit of a walk from my place, but I don&#39;t mind. You get what you pay for.

Lovely staff and the place is spotless. Food&#39;s excellent too, service is quick and prices are very reasonable. My go-to spot around here.

The Emperor&#39;s Special deal is the one to get. The crispy duck was spot on, skin perfectly rendered. The portion for the price is solid. Menu&#39;s huge, but I just kept re-ordering the same thing.

The masala fish is the one to get. Spices are spot on, flavour is deep without being overpowering. A really good dish.

The set menu B is solid, and the Peking beef is always cooked just right.

Service was really good. Staff were polite and friendly, especially Sheryl the manager. She&rsquo;s got a fun, inclusive vibe that makes you feel welcome. Food was top-class too.

The mushroom crisps with my panini were a lovely touch. So much flavour in those little things, really made the simple sandwich feel a bit more special.

Popped in for a coffee and cake. The orange and lemon drizzle was spot on, really fresh and moist. Latte was smooth too. Nice little stop.

The scones were pretty good, warm and fresh with a nice crumble. The clotted cream and jam were decent. They have a wide selection of teas, though the service was a little slow.

Loved the patio for a drink before lunch! The menu had some really interesting small plates. We tried the grilled octopus with smoked paprika oil &ndash; the texture was spot on. Moved inside when it got a bit breezy. Service was friendly and quick.

The staff are so friendly and attentive - they really make you feel welcome. It&#39;s a lovely spot for catching up with friends.

The all-day brunch is the main draw. The eggs were perfectly runny, and the hollandaise had a nice, sharp lemon kick. The bacon was thick-cut and crispy. It&#39;s a solid, no-fuss plate of food.

The staff here are always so lovely and friendly. It really makes a difference when the restaurant is packed and buzzing. Just a nice, welcoming vibe.

The fish was so fresh and flaky with a perfectly crispy batter. That alone made it worth the visit!

The cauliflower and chickpea soup was pretty good, really tasty and filling. Service was decent, though the soup did arrive a little later than the other starters.

Great selection of cakes. The carrot cake was moist, and they had a solid vegan pecan shortbread. Appreciated the variety for different diets. Enjoyed a strong black coffee with mine, a simple but good pairing.

Friendly service and the food is consistently decent. Just a heads up, it&#39;s cash only so you&#39;ll need to remember that. Had a pretty good lunch here.

Lovely little spot for a catch-up with friends. The decor and music are so cosy, felt like we were just hanging out in someone&#39;s living room. Perfect for a chilled afternoon.

The Turkish Eggs and French Toast with cherry compote had some nice little twists. The place was packed, but the vibes were still really good.

Love that they give you a timer with the loose-leaf tea. It&rsquo;s a nice touch, makes it feel like they care about getting it right. Food was fresh, felt like good value.

The toasties are the main draw here. The bread is perfectly toasted, crispy on the outside and soft inside, with a generous amount of melted cheese and ham. It&#39;s a simple thing, but they do it right. The pastries looked good too, but I always go for the toastie.

The granola yogurt was spot on, and their coffee selection really complemented it. Came back for the banana bread the next day.

The vegan breakfast is solid. Scrambled tofu was nicely seasoned, and the hash browns were crisp. I had a simple coffee with it, which paired well. A good spot for plant-based choices.
