Customer Review Summary
Friendly staff are the most repeated draw at this Lennoxtown cafe, with reviewers describing a warm welcome, good banter and counter staff who go out of their way to help. The food comes close behind, led by the hot lentil soup with a roll, which more than one reviewer calls excellent or delicious. A cappuccino to follow gets a mention, and others praise the coffees, the specials and food made fresh. Diners describe homely cooking in good portions and call the prices unbelievably cheap, and one notes the service was quick. The only wish voiced is that it were busier, since one reviewer felt the good menu and the staff's pride deserved more custom. Several reviewers say they will be back, and one who often visits with Dad returned on Father's Day for a lovely afternoon.

“Very warm welcome on a Sunday afternoon after our hill climb. Really delicious hot fresh lentil soup and roll only £2.30 each and a lovely cappuccino to follow. Counter staff was friendly and service was quick. Extremely good value for money and really tasty fare. Just a shame it wasn't busier, it has a good menu and staff clearly take pride.”
