It's a very nice area to read in and the coffee is very good for the price. The atmosphere is nice although the presence of Harry Potter, Manga and anime is very questionable but still, the coffee is very enjoyable and I recommend coming here. I'd rate it better if the TERF books and anime and maga removed due to the far right pro-Trump winning in Japan

nice pleasant staff. found it nicer than a costa, they give tou plenty of marshmallows and cream and dont skimp on the flavourings if you add one to your hot choc like i did. very nice and relaxing in there the staff are polite and helpful. they are happy to take items to table and collect cups after as i struggle to carry. this is somewhere ive been thinking of goin to for a while but kept putting it off as i thought it wouldnt be anything great in all honesty. but its definatly somewhere i will go again
