  “I used to love Olive and Bean but we had a poor experience about a year ago and first time back was poor again. Toilets are grubby and dirty. Staff tried their best but the food arrived before the drinks did. The soup was barely warm. I took it back and they said they’d fix it. I pointed out my toastie would then be cold. It was. Soup tasted nice. Son’s sausage baguette had one sausage in it. That’s not going to fill anyone. Staff said they were short staffed and they were pleasant but it fell short of the mark today. Sadly I don’t think we’ll be back.”

  “How do I put this. Really not great this time. Waitress upstairs was unfriendly. She kinda just slammed our water down. I spilled my drink and when I asked for something to mop it up she kinda just threw the kitchen roll on the table instead of placing it. Also she got my partners order wrong. I really do not know why they dont write orders down if they cant remember them. My partner didnt want to kick up a fuss in case they tried to make his order again (slow waiting time to be served). No one asked me if everything was ok with my meal. My toastie was disappointing, the mushrooms could have been sliced smaller. Instead there were two mushroom halves cut in half, which meant when I bit into my toastie mushroom juice spurted and made a lot of mess. I felt really ill after eating here. Only giving it 2 stars because the cakes are really nice. But I wouldnt get lunch here ever again. Just overpriced, staff arent all pleasant and overall the food was average.”

  “Lovely cafe with great coffees and sandwiches. I recently had their half soup and sandwich combo which was simply delicious. They do a variety of cakes but I found them to be overpriced for the size of the slice you receive. Always found staff to be friendly and prompt”

  “I thought the brûlée latte was so much fun and the choice of cakes was amazing and they all looked so detailed and delicious. The staff were really cute and gave me a to go box for the rest of my cake. It was a small seating area but it was enough space even with our luggage. The Biscoff Tiffin was really good but it was more chocolatey than I expected and it was quite rich.”

  “Everything looked very yummy!!! The coffee and food were great, and every sweet treat looked amazing. There is plenty of space and it is a great place if you wanna have breakfast/brunch/coffee with friends. They have seasonal drinks so we will be visiting again soon. The only thing is, the street where the cafe it is located is a bit sketchy.”

  “Staff are really friendly and happy to help, it's a really cute little coffee shop with a large selection of cakes including lots of gluten free options. I went for a Cherry Bakewell Blondie which was gluten free and absolutely delicious 😋 and a Bailey's hot chocolate. The staff checked the ingredients of everything used in the hot chocolate to ensure it was also gluten free. The portions of the cakes are large - I could have probably split mine with someone, but I didn't 😂 All the gluten free cakes were on the same two shelves with no gluten containing items touching them or above them. I don't know whether a celiac would consider it safe as there probably still is the possibility for cross-contamination, so you would have to ask staff.”

  “Delicious drinks to enjoy! The cakes can sometimes be quite dry, however I’ve only experienced it once in the many times I’ve visited. The decor is calming and atheistically pleasing, it’s a nice cafe to sit, read or get some work done. It’s a bit more on the pricier side compared to what you get.”
