Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This cafe is situated at the back of the Corn Hall Market, which is off the main shopping street. It can get very busy, this was the first time we were able to get a table as it is very popular with locals and visitors...alike. We had peppermint tea, although there was a wide range of drinks available as well as cakes, sandwiches etc. the table next to us had very appetising bacon sandwiches. It’s accessible to prams and wheelchairs. Order at the counter and it’s brought to your table. Toilets are downstairs.More

Went in for a cup of tea and ended with two slices of cake (which were both amazing by the way). The staff were amazing and catered to my daughter who is gluten free, taking extra care coming to her food, all whilst having a...smile on their face. Hard to find but worth the trip, I will definitely be coming back!More

Called in to have a bacon sandwich and coffee (x2), staff very polite , however I asked that the bacon had the fat cut off, staff said it would be, it arrived all the fat was left on, and it was horrible. thus once I...took the fat off very little bacon was left on it. I will not be returning and will advise my friends not to.More

Had a great little lunch here today with my children and our friends. Slightly off the beaten track which we liked as it wasn't overcrowded like some places we passed on the high street. We had a mixture of sandwiches, toasties and paninis as well...as hot drinks and cakes; everyone was very happy with their orders.More

Simple but excellent. Lovely mocha and we had a simple jacket potato (cheese & bacon). One of the nicest I have had. Staff really friendly and it looked like lots of locals use it. Spot on lunch.

Great place for a pitstop. Their staff are young and super friendly and help to clear the table before you sit. This place can get crowded as it is next to the Corn market weekend market. The scone with clotted cream and jam is good...and the shortbread is freshly made if a little too sweet for me from the sugar icing.More
