"I just moved to the neighbourhood and had lunch there today. Honestly, I cannot begin to describe how good the golden chicken sandwich was! Crispy chicken, excellent coleslaw and wonderful, soft bread. It's not often that I find something I absolutely love, but, this sandwich was it! Really friendly service and great atmosphere. I am within walking distance, so I will definitely eating here again!"

"Lovely quiet little business. Went for breakfast. Atmosphere is very welcoming. They have a book swap and boardgames. High chairs for babies are also available. The service was also very polite and prompt. Food was good and coffee was ok. Pictured is the Mister Pigeon Breakfast and Eggs Benedict for the food, and a Mug mocha and a piccolo for the drinks. Definately enough to pass the palate of fussy eaters / coffee drinkers. Would recommend."
