Been wanting to try this cafe in the Piece Hall for ages. It was fab! Delicious food and coffee. I would recommend the kicking crust toastie. The staff were smiley and friendly 🙂
Nice, lovely place with delicious food. They provide throws and heaters, which makes sitting outside comfortable even during colder weather. The staff are very friendly as well.
I was looking forward to coming here as it was a place I'd been meaning to go for a while. My immediate first experience was a staff member shouting at me, she was incredibly rude and at the same time, another staff member just glared at me, giving me dirty looks. The girl who served me was lovely and the brownie and hot chocolate was nice. But because of those 2 staff members, I will never go here again and I don't recommend you do so either. There's no contact details for them, I was advised by Piece Hall to contact them via social media. I have via Facebook but no one has contacted me about this. Clearly that's why their staff think they can be rude to customers as they get away with it. But I will not be letting this go. They need to be held accountable. I suggest you spend your money elsewhere.
Went for breakfast, coffee and cake and it was absolutely worth it. Prime location in piece hall with outdoor seating, wonderful staff and customer service and delicious goods. Also quite affordable and a friendly ambience. Would definitely recommend! Is on lower ground floor next to library has wheelchair accessibility.
I asked if the carrot cake had nuts in it because I'm allergic and they said no. Then given a cake with nuts in it. One staff member laughed and said I made her uncomfortable because I was unhappy and asking if they understood how serious this is that if I took a bite that would've killed me. She said I didn't specify that I had an allergy which I did, I specifically asked "does the carrot cake contain nuts? Traces is fine, it's just if it contains nuts?" N she took said I might've just not liked nuts. Laughing and not training your staff to be allergy aware is unprofessional and someone could end up dead. Not okay
