  “John Lewis Cafe I know. Everything is just mass production. It's not going to be wow or disappointed. But still, the benefit of mass production is everything is cheaper. Not everyone can afford eating in luxury places but still deserves comfort treats in their life. The menu is quite narrow, looking around other tables. The food looked alright for the reasonable price. The scones were freshly baked. They were still hot when delivered. There is an microwave oven available for customers to heat their food manually. The place is clean, quiet and tidy. The service was always good whenever we went to this cafe. The main problem is, be ready to be on the queue. While the staff are not slow at all. It's a popular and busy place is why.”

  “The food was acceptable and the millionaire shortbreads were flat and smashed! It looks like someone took a bat to it! The rocky road was too sickly but filled with marshmallows! The coffee was as expected for this establishment.”

  “Lovely place to have a bite to eat . I’ve marked it down a point as a coeliac there are limited choices for me . I ended up having a coffee and not a lot else . The food on offer looked delicious though. I couldn’t fault the staff who kept the place clean and tidy .”

  “John Lewis membership sometimes rewards you with free offers of something to eat in their places to eat. The soup.and bun, plus a pumpkin wrap were delicious today. Served with warm sourdough, at the right temperature, it was thai spicy chicken for me. The wrap was suprisingly delicious -spinach, pumpkin, tomatoe- I'm going to replicate it at home! Very fitting to the Halloween theme, withour any gory staff.”

  “Bright space, nice people, good coffee. High up in a generally low town so bonus view of Cambridge roofscape 👍”

  “I didn’t know there is such an airy space in the shopping mall! Great view above most roofs of the little city, with the clouds drifting by and the birds flapping wings outside of. The company history and posters are also fun to read. Coffee is better than I expected. I was impressed by the latte art in the tall narrow cup. Smooth and mellow. (Semi-skim is the only dairy option and other substitutes costs extra.) Cinnamon bun looks tall and impressive, but it’s not crispy and rather on the soggy side. The large selection of cakes and sandwiches seem fairly nice. The price is competitive with college cafes considering the side salad. Probably worthwhile to stop by to try some of them. No to-go boxes, but the space is nice and quiet for relaxing, snacking, and catching up with friends. - 2 The food is decent for the price! (Slightly elevated supermarket sandwiches but with a view) The chicken wrap tastes fresh with silky avocado and yoghurt sauce and I appreciate the fresh dill. The young man at the counter forgot to scan my card and said it’s too late when I mentioned it. 4.95 was not a big thing but I was really disappointed by the arrogant attitude, unlike his more helpful and professional colleague.”

  “Great place to relax and have a latte in a proper porcelain cup. Worth visiting if you are in Cambridge town.”
