We happened upon this place because we were in the area and I found it to the most reviewed on Yelp! Walking in, I felt like it was very similar to the type of thing you would see in the States, (i.e. Paradise Bakery or Panera), it isn't super clear how to order, and it takes a minute to figure out how it works, but in all, it is very similar to other places about town offering soup and sandwiches. The pastries looked amazing and it is a lovely space, all be it, a bit too massive. The windows are great, but it feels a bit like a cafeteria maybe. The staff was very friendly and our food came out promptly. I am surprised they don't give you table numbers, seeing it is such a large caf\u00e9, but they had no trouble finding it. \n\nThe food was very good, however, a bit pricy, they were very large portions for lunch size. For \u00a38.95, you can do a half sandwich and soup or a quiche and soup. We opted for one of each, I got the brie and aubergine quiche and the roasted pepper and cabbage soup and my boyfriend had the salmon sandwich and a chicken and lentil soup. The quiche was delicious, lots of brie and a great sized slice. The soup was equally as lovely, my only gripe is that parsley is not a great garnish, but that's just me. The half sandwich was definitely a whole sandwich in my opinion and the bread was amazingly soft and grain-filled. We really enjoyed splashing out for lunch, but my recommendation would be to lower the price and the portion sizes. \n\nIt's not somewhere I would go regularly for lunch as without drinks our meals were \u00a318 together. I have found the same sort of meal to be about \u00a312-13 pounds elsewhere. Although, great quality so I can't complain other then be a sort of budget eater. It also has a mixed lunch crowd, including business to babies. So be warned.\n\nIf you go downstairs to use the loo you can see into the bakery, and it just smells wonderfully of butter. I would say, a lovely place to grab a bit, but it doesn't feel very local, if that makes sense. Maybe the size of it, makes me feel it isn't a very warm place to have lunch regularly. Although the \u00a31 filter coffee, reminded me of America and good on them for offering it. \n\nDefinitely a very business area-type eatery, with delicious food, although slightly out of my price range to be a regular. Although, the sweet and treats looked heavenly. Maybe I will return for a delicious treat some day.
