  “Visited this lovely place while enjoying a walk around Uppermill with my daughter. Tucked away in a lovely cobbled courtyard we spotted the small outdoor dining area. Upon entering we were greeted by very friendly staff in a small but pleasant bar / counter area. The low ceilinged ground floor dining space was full as we got there (it was Saturday so pretty busy) we headed upstairs and found a good selection of tables available. We ordered a "garlic chicken sandwich" and a "bacon and cheese bagel" which were both cooked fresh and served in good time. The food was very nice with excellent ingredients (the bacon was really thick cut and must have been from a proper butchers), both sandwiches were well presented and came with side salads and tortilla chips. Portion sizes were excellent and we were stuffed afterwards. This set us up for the rest of the day. The service, staff friendliness and ambience were all excellent. Highly recommended ⭐”

  “So very disappointed with our visit to this cafe today. The waitress took our order at the table, two toasties one being gluten free and two coffees, the coffees arrived swiftly, but 45 mins later we were still waiting for our food order. When we asked how much longer it would be the waitress said she would check . It then became apparent that the waitress hadn’t put the order through for our food. The waitress didn’t explain or apologise and it was the waiter that then advised us it hadn’t been ordered so said he would take our order again, which we had to refuse as we couldn’t stay any longer due to the car park expiring. Whilst I appreciate mistakes happen, it wasn’t particularly busy and at no point did either staff check if we wanted anything else or seem to realise that we were waiting for our food order. To add to our frustration, whilst waiting for our food I noticed that both the waitress and waiter were intermittently hanging around and sitting behind the counter looking at their phones. Neither the waiter or waitress gave any possible explanation as to why our food hadn’t been ordered and although they said sorry the apology wasn’t sincere and the waitress just seemed dismissive of the fact that she had made a mistake and we had been waiting for as long as we had. The only reason I have given 1 star is because they didn’t charge us for the coffee’s… although we left hungry and frustrated with the time wasted 😠”

  “This was our regular cafe where one of my clients loved to go weekly where possible. There have been changes to staffing and we've been patient and understanding but after five times in a row if something either not being available on the menu I think we'll have to go elsewhere. I actually asked the member of staff to ensure what I was ordering was actually available and yet after twenty minutes of waiting which isn't a problem in itself a we don't expect instant food, I was told the soup wasn't available. Unfortunately I didn't trust that food would come if I ordered something else as twice we've waited over 45 minutes only to be told one of the items was no longer available or they had to go out to get an item. It's really sad that service has declined as it's a lovely little place”

  “Waited 25 minutes for an oinkin bacon butty to go. Understandable if it was busy, but a table of 2 didn’t quite justify it.”

  “Visited Saints on Christmas Eve day and as usual could not fault it.Their Christmas menu was very good and their prices are brilliant. In one place in Uppermill Mulled wine was £14.40 for two and not that brilliant, Saints £8 for two and I have put pictures of Saints menu which I was told it runs into New Year . Well done Saints not ripping people off like so many others.”

  “Just off the main road in a little court yard. The place is well presented, you can sit outdoor if the weather is nice. We had a table inside for two served the table by lovely stuff we had chocolate cake, carrot cake, coffee and a tea thought the price was reasonable. Staff were helpful. Place was clean and tidy.”

  “Set back from the hustle and bustle of the high street, nestled on the cobbled back street. Lovely place to sit in or out with a coffee. Have eaten in the past and has been lovely. Great cake selection as well. Loads of seating inside/upstairs and outside is an additional seating area across the cobbles.”

  “I've been waiting to review this place for a while, but I've not had the photo to add to the food! Saints is a small, two floor cafe nestled in Uppermill. A warm, wooden aesthetic makes you feel cosy and at home from the second you step in. I've had breakfast/brunch here a bunch of times, sticking with Eggs Benedict as my go to, my partner usually picks up the mega breakfast which does it's namesake justice. On an oven bottom muffin, two perfectly poached eggs are set with runny, golden yolks, Hollandaise and fresh chive. Underneath is tender, sliced ham. There's a solid depth of flavour in the dish, though personally I do find the Hollandaise on the sweeter side! Food feels like it comes quickly, coffee is often on the hotter side, but that doesn't ruin the overall flavour of the beans. The food pictured in this review, Eggs Benedict and a Latte came together to total around £12, which isn't breaking the bank. Eggs Benedict comes in at £8.50, which has seen a small price increase since my last visit, unseating it as Uppermill's cheapest offering. All in all, it's a solid value to cost ratio that has kept us coming back time on time. Give it a go if you're about!”

  “Cracking little cafe! Definitely better than the one in the park round the corner. Love the outdoor space and the bit opposite is also theirs. Stairs are a bit steep which makes a trip to the loo interesting! Unfortunately too many people just go in to use the loos because they are better than the one in the park. Food has always been good and drinks are fine. Love the Oreo cookie milkshake. UPDATE: As ever, staff were absolutely fabulous. We booked in in the the morning for lunch today, table had a reservation sign on it and they really looked after us. I went for Bacon and Cheese on bagel and it was spot on. Not too much food but still good value. That coleslaw is lush!! Kids had breakfasts and swapped stuff out and they got everything spot on. Forgot to get the 4 drinks stamped on my card afterwards, d'oh!!!!”
