Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the dough, calling it tasty and top tier, and they pair it with fresh ingredients. One diner describes the pizza as not oily, and another praises the perfectly crispy crust. Close behind is the halloumi pastry, described as a halloumi and mozzarella mix baked onto bread. One reviewer calls pizza with thoum the best combo. A few also mention quality coffees and teas and good shisha. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and hospitable, and one reviewer calls the place clean. The one clear complaint comes from a visitor who could not place an order online because the process demanded a UK phone number and a UK credit card, which left them unable to order from outside the UK. Reviewers also describe an owner who is pleasant and passionate, who offers tasters on the house and has given free pizza to emergency services.
