I dont really know if this restaurant knows what its supposed to be. Menus seem to chop and change, and quality is average to say the least. We went once as they had a nice selection of pizza slices, but was told we no longer do them. Then settled on a ham and cheese toastie for the kids which was terrible. I could have made better at home. Sadly we havent bothered going back when there is so much competition out there.

Original review (see end for update) Who charges 10 upwards for a jacket potato, over 16 in one case? We went before covid and prices and food were reasonable, now it seems like they have nearly doubled in some cases. A panini 8? We had takeaway paninis and jackets but way overpriced. I know everyone is feeling the pinch, but I fear you are a little delusional! 8 for eggs or beans on toast! Definitely need to look at the pricing, unfortunately this is turning custom away. I just stood outside at 2pm on a Sunday and there was only 1 person inside having a drink. Surely this should be a busy time..... costa is heaving! Just trying to give helpful feedback as we now can't afford to go into somewhere that was previously reasonable. I also agree with the strange customer service, but we didn't let this worry us before as it was a reasonable relaxed place to get a bite. Please have a rethink. ....Update (1 month later - mid Aug 22)... they have reviewed the pricing. It is much more reasonable. Thank you for listening. Had some takeaway today. Review score amended.
