Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often credit the staff, describing them as nice, friendly and kind. One says they were caring toward an older patron, and another says the welcome makes family visits a pleasure. For food, diners single out the Mexican wrap, which one recommends, and a tuna toaster described as nice, while one family calls the food good value for money. Slow service is the most repeated complaint. Several describe a disorganised counter where stressed staff made mistakes. One group waited a long time for three avocado on toast with salmon and only learned by asking that the salmon had run out. Others call the coffee quite bitter and the sausage ciabatta not enjoyable, and one says the flow of the cafe is poor for M&S standards. Even so, a few who mention the delays still call it a good place for coffee, food and cold drinks, with lots of space for those not in a hurry.

“Although service can be slow, if you're not in a hurry, it's a good place to have coffee/food/cold drinks. Lots of space and nice staff.”

“Wow, wanted to come by to vouch for the staff being immensely attentive and caring to an older patron! My own order arrived quickly and it was yum. So happy to have a sweet cafe like this near me, such kind people.”

“Went in just to feed the baby. The place was at 30% occupancy at most. Ordered a coffee and even though they had 3 people in the till, it took a while. Once I got served I realised all the unoccupied tables were dirty, so asked to get a table cleaned and explained I didnt even needed my order, it was just a courtesy to have a table to feed my baby for 2 mins and go. Those 3 people at the till (doing nothing) looked at each other as if my request was weird and after long time debating between themselves on what to do, they called someone in the kitchen to clean the table. I repeat myself. 70% of the tables were free but with all the dirty remains on top. Asking to have a clean (or just cleared) table seemed too much. This on a place were an americano is charged to a similar price to a coffee with views to the Eiffel tower! Anything bad that happens to you as a business, you deserve it”

“Flood is nice but this cafe doesn't work very well, especielly the flow. The service is slow. Cutlery and condiments are not clearly together, the place always appears as if they're struggling to cope. Please M&S this could be a lot better. Poor for M&S standards.”

“Extremely slow service at times, but the food is good, and the vibe in here is nice. I recommend the Mexican wrap.”
