Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers rave about the great coffee selection, often calling it the best in Ely. The homemade toasties are a highlight, with many returning for seconds due to their freshness and flavor. The cozy, retro vibe garners plenty of love, from the nostalgic decor to the availability of retro gaming tables for some light-hearted fun.
The friendly staff are another standout feature, consistently receiving praise for their warm service. Prices remain reasonable, which adds to the overall enjoyment of the visit. Regulars appreciate the unique blend of comfort food and lively atmosphere, making it a perfect spot for both a quick bite and a relaxed afternoon hangout.
Most Disliked
Some customers mention limited seating during peak hours, making it harder to find a spot, especially on weekends when the café buzzes with activity. While most enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, a few prefer quieter alternatives for introspective moments, so those seeking solitude may find it a bit lively and bustling at times.
The range of menu options, while comforting, might seem limited to diners searching for more varied offerings. However, the focus on quality over quantity tends to resonate well with regular customers who appreciate the specialty items that stand out on the menu.

Winning formula - lovely people, menu: comfort food, great prices and delicious - made in house with love. I started with 1 vegan toastie. Toasties so good I had seconds. Retro feel, free 80s retro gaming table - remember being addicted to them? Loved the atmosphere and look of the place, really friendly and chilled. Walked away feeling like a happy child :)
