  “Timeless cafe with simply wonderful food and atmosphere. Be quick or sandwiches will be sold out. Breakfast (simply divine) sold till 11am. Lovely coffee and just serene vibe that can loose yourself in the history of the building, paintings and hideout from busy Park Street.”

  “Such a bad service. Card machine, not working so only accepting cash. Not an issue until they have no coins and were unable to give customers their full change. No white bread left. We ordered 2 coffees, they only gave us 1. After we raised the issue there wasn't so much as an apology. When toasties finally arrived there was definitely no service with a smile. Also one was lacking the brown sauce! Such a bad service not worth 4.4 stars. Staff disinterested.”

  “This place has been here for decades I suspect I’ve been coming here on and off for at least 18years since a friend of mine who grew up here introduced me to it - I’ve always loved the bacon sandwich and steaming lattes there’s nothing quite like it anywhere in Bristol - yes the layout although pleasant enough is no frills and maybe a bit basic - but it’s somewhere to pass through ruminate on life and look out the window quietly - if the mood takes you. Bristol is an amazing city with many foodie places , all with different vibes - some have soundtracks in the background this one doesnt but that’s ok - all these places are often in close proximity to each other so many of them (not all) but a lot of them are semi independent places in these never ending turbulent times they need custom Im happy to spread the love and come here some days as well maybe you will to - cheers !”

  “The staff were lovely and friendly, unfortunately the manager (or owner?) feels it appropriate to use his position to bully his staff. He was calling one of them stupid and telling them "its this simple" in front of customers. I felt embarrassed to be witnessing this behaviour in 2025.”

  “Lovely quiet cafe, the pastry were extremely cheap for what I was expecting but I had a blueberry muffin and it was moist and very flavorful, delicious little snack to start my day. My partner had a slice of carrot cake and a latte.”

  “Decent coffee and good selection of light food. Eating in is like traveling back in time because of the decor.”

  “Lovely cafe on Park Street with an old timey vibe. The wooden seating is lovely reminds you of church pews. Feels like a very welcome change to all the other hipster cafés around.”

  “Friendly staff, and nice upstairs cosy seating area to escape to. Plenty of seating space mid morning. Iced americano, blended, was delicious and perfect for a hot day.”

  “Weekday visit ( enjoy tranquil surroundings). I really like the retro feel there. Coffee is nice but don’t expect to the artisan level (based on the reasonable price). Very crowded in weekend. Barista is very friendly. P.S: outdoor seat and toilet.”

  “First visit here mixed views on the reviews but decided to give it a try. Don't agree that the service was bad I was served by a friendly welcoming member of staff she had blue hair and was very polite. Coffee ☕ was hot and although not as strong as I like it was still good as was the carrot cake 😋 would recommend. Very reasonably priced. Interior clean and although a bit outdated it had character. I would come again”
