Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return to Batch above all for the coffee, with several calling it the best around and one singling out the flat white. Close behind are the in-house baked pastries and cakes, which reviewers describe as incredible and unbelievable, alongside savouries that one reviewer ranks among the best they have had. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly and welcoming, and the relaxed atmosphere, good playlists and comfy seating get regular mentions. Several note it is an independent newcomer already gathering regulars, with some visiting every week or frequently, and one says it suits the whole family, young and old. Dogs feature in the praise: the resident dog, Waffle, greets visitors, and one reviewer's dog received a treat. No recurring complaints appear in the reviews.

“Awesome new independent! Consistently serving the best coffee in around, unbelievable cakes (baked in-house) and some of the best savouries I’ve ever had! Really cool spot, chilled vibes and aesthetics and the most wonderfully awkward bunch of geeks running it! Pay them a visit and make Batch your new regular :)”
