Crikey — never again (which is a shame). Crikey. Never coming here again — which is a real shame, because the food is so nice. 1️⃣ It’s a lot pricier than its Bradford counterparts, which makes you wonder if it’s worth just going somewhere else or saving dessert for another venue. 2️⃣ It’s dirty inside. Everything about the interior feels worn, tired, or outdated. In my opinion, it really needs a full renovation. I only stayed because I had a craving for waffles, which I’d enjoyed here before. 3️⃣ Oddly, they don’t serve chai or Arabic tea — surprising, given the largely South Asian customer base. And then… the toilets. Crikey again. Possibly the worst I’ve seen in a UK eatery — I genuinely felt like I needed to wash my hands after washing my hands. All of which makes it even sadder to say that my waffles were absolutely perfect, and the service was spot on. Such a shame. I won’t be back.
We went here as we’d been to the one in Bradford many many times so knew the food was good. The food was good but that is severely overshadowed by the state of the premises. So worn. Like embarrassingly worn. Ripped seats. Skirting boards half kissing. Broken glass in the door. We were scared to use the bathroom having seen other reviews and due to the general upkeep of the rest of the place. We were there for 30-40 minutes so we heard ‘All Too Well Taylor’s Version’ 3-4 times in a row 😂 We got the banoffee cookie dough and it was 10/10 no notes.
Lovely place with a nice chilled vibe. Gorgeous mocktails and sundaes! The staff are all really lovely and helpful too. Definitely recommend and we will visit again :) thank you!
The desserts here are absolutely delicious and fresh — I was really impressed. The staff were super friendly and the service was great. Just the atmosphere needs work. The decor feels pretty old and not very clean, and the toilet wasn’t in good condition
Kunafa brownie was good and with suggestion from the team added strawberries. The strawberries really balanced out the sweetness. Tried it again and the brownie by itself is a letdown. We had also ordered Fudge Cake and Custard. Such a letdown. The cake was not good and such a bad combo. We struggled to finish. Cookie dough is really good here. I once bought gelato by itself - bad choice. This was not our first time and we wanted to try new things. We got 20% student discount.
