Customer Review Summary
Coffee anchors the praise at Artisan Coffee Design, with reviewers repeatedly calling out excellent cappuccinos, iced lattes, and a smooth brew alongside great milk texture. Close behind, the food draws steady mentions: sausage rolls (including a vegan version with a mushroom mixture) come up again and again as a must-try, alongside the ham and cheese sandwich, bacon sandwich on sourdough, croissants, and a well-regarded afternoon tea. Cakes and pastries are another recurring highlight, with several calling them the best they've had. Staff are consistently described as friendly and accommodating, with one reviewer noting a milkshake was happily remade in a different flavour when a child didn't like it. Set against this, a few reviews raise real complaints: one found the coffee burnt and overly roasted despite the "artisan" name, and another describes tepid coffee served to a departing couple with a flippant staff response, though their own second cup improved once they asked for it hot. One reviewer also observed difficulty for a wheelchair user manoeuvring between tables. Several call it their favourite spot in town, and one recounts a themed birthday party there complete with mocktails and a red carpet arrival.
