Had the full Irish breakfast and it was filling. Although was surprised that it only comes with one egg. Staff were lovely and service was fast. The bake goods looked really good, would love to try some next time.

Visited with a friend recently and got to love that place. Staff has a way of making customers feel like friends, even on a first visit. Location is really convenient. Selection of desserts is reasonably broad, and what I tried on was excellent. Coffee was delicious as well.
