  “I've lived in Cambridge for over 20 years and it's only because I had to go to pick up a parcel I came across this place. Absolutely lovely venue, staff and food. Prawn mayo & avocado ciabatta with a drink £9.50!!!! Wow”

  “My wife and I finally stopped in for lunch after passing this place on our daily commute for the last few years. We ordered the veggie burger, caprese crepe, and coffee. Overall, we were fairly unimpressed with the food. The crepe was okay at best, but unfortunately lacked much flavor or care, which was disappointing as we both really enjoy crepes. I would say it was probably one of the less memorable crepes we’ve had in quite a while. The veggie burger was also just so so. On the positive side, the staff were friendly, the service was pleasant, the coffee was perfectly decent, and we appreciated that the café is dog friendly. Prices were also reasonable. That said, based on this visit, it’s unlikely we would return. We do appreciate the welcoming service and hope the food improves in the future.”

  “Popped in by chance for a quick lunch bit and very pleasantly surprised. Not one of your chain high street cafes which means varied menu with lots of choice at reasonable price. Friendly, quick service, good traditional cafe.”

  “Best iced latte I've ever had! Coffee is well made and a wide range of seating options with a garden in the back.”

  “Café 121 has become one my favourite local spots to eat breakfast. The service is always good and the food is tasty. Plenty of choice too for breakfast and lunch. Highly recommend the pancake breakfast with crispy bacon and the full works crepe. The drinks are always hot and a medium size here would be considered a large in other places.”

  “What a great cafe/dessert place to have a mini break. On street parking is available (though it is limited), it is accessible by bus and there is a garden area to enjoy the outdoors whilst enjoy your food and drink. There is only one toilet nevertheless it is clean. The staff members are very nice and helpful. I had the fruit cocktail crepe with cream and I've cream with a coffee which was delicious. I would highly recommend this place!”

  “Out of the ordinary decor with a slightly industrial but warm ambiance. Table service, which was efficient and friendly. Coffee was very good, with good range of sizes and types. All the trappings of a really nice cafe, but the food experience was more like a typical greasy spoon. Bargain basement cutlery and pre-ground flour-like pepper. Ordered smoked salmon scrambled eggs, which was disappointingly literally eggs on one side of the plate and ice cold chewy smoked salmon on the other, with bog standard toasted sliced bread. Scrambled eggs were overdone for my liking, being rather dry and crumbly. Seems like it has a lot of potential to be a great cafe with a bit more attention paid to the food.”
