Customer Review Summary
Reviewers keep returning for the coffee with a view, with the waterside setting looking out to Royal William Yard and Mount Edgecombe repeatedly singled out alongside a latte and a wider coffee blend praised as great. Close behind, snacks like flapjack, cakes, sandwiches, pasties and ice creams get mentioned favorably, and the tea selection (Clippers, with oat milk available) draws specific praise. Staff are called friendly and patient, with one visitor describing two staff members helping clean up and bandage a child's scraped knee. Free nearby parking and plentiful outdoor seating (it's outdoor or takeaway only) also come up often. One reviewer wished it stayed open later. Separately, one reviewer describes being refused service when trying to buy an ice pole for a lactose-intolerant child, calling the exchange distressing. Otherwise the recurring note is simple: a small café by the water where visitors settle in with a drink and the view.

“Cafe Roma is a great little cafe in the heart of Mount Wise. The coffees, cakes and all are just great. All served with a smile too. Whatever the weather, it’s in a lovely spot with plenty of outdoor seating.”

“I recently came to your cafe this morning to purchase a ice cream for my godson who is 3 years old.The lad offered me ice cream and I said he can't have that as he's lactose intolerant do u have ice poles he said yes we do and apon trying to purchase one he then refused to serve me saying g he can't sell me a ice cream if my godson has a intolerance. First of all it not his decision as to what he can and can't have. Secondly he can't refuse to sell an ice pole I had a very upset and distressed 3 year old because he wanted an ice pole which by the way was absolutely fine for him to have as they don't contain milk there made from ive and water and colouring I will be leaving g a bad review on Google”
