Customer Review Summary
Basque cheesecake is what reviewers return to most, described as creamy, rich and smooth, with one comparing the classic San Sebastian to the one eaten in Spain. Flavours named include Mixed Berries and Bueno, and several bought whole cheesecakes for birthdays and small gatherings, where friends asked where it came from. One reviewer calls the presentation beautiful, and another wants more flavours. Close behind are the drinks: coffee described as tasty and well made with smooth milk, a matcha one reviewer rates above any other in Dorset, and a first turmeric latte. Staff and baristas are repeatedly called lovely or friendly, and one reviewer notes the offer to warm up pastries. The main complaint is value. One reviewer found the place extremely overpriced, calling the cheesecake just ok and tiny for the money, and also disliked the outdoor seating beside a busy road and bus stop, though they still called the service lovely.

“We got a takeaway after following these stunning looking cheesecakes on social media. I was not expecting it to taste as good as it looked but I was so happy to be proved wrong! The best cheesecake I've ever eaten and one of the best deserts I've ever eaten! Can't wait to visit the cafe for a morning date!”

“Unfortunately extremely overpriced for what you get , very disappointed 😔, have to say service was lovely. The outdoor area isn't great, you're sat next to a busy road and bus stop. The cheesecake was ok, just ok and tiny for what you're paying.”
