Upon arrival, we were greeted with hello’s and smiles from the team despite them being busy with another customer. We found a table in the window on the comfy tub chairs and sat down. My daughter spotted the cakes the second we walked in the door but first, we had to have something savoury! (Much to her displeasure!)
Cora ordered a kid’s lunch box with a ham sandwich. The box arrived quickly filled with yummy sandwiches, fruit, a flavoured water, pom bears and much to her delight a chocolate brownie! A bargain at £4.95.
I opted for my old favourite combo – smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel and I was not disappointed. It was served with vegetable crisps and a fresh side salad.
My cup of tea was brought to the table complete with the Refresca Perfect Brew Timer. 5 minutes later my perfect brew was ready-I like it STRONG!! To accompany my cuppa I opted for the carrot cake, it was amazing!! Rich and gingery with a cinnamon aftertaste it ticked all the boxes.
As I enjoyed my tea and cake Cora grabbed a Little Explorers backpack from the kid’s hooks and entertained herself with the colouring books and crayons and then the Amazon Kindle (set to kid mode). After helping her to find a game she wanted to play (Hello Kitty nail art – could she be any more girlie??) she settled back into her chair and created her masterpiece allowing me to sit back and relax for 5 minutes peace!
The staff promptly cleared our table but never put pressure on us to vacate it as she played and I sat finishing my (still hot!!) tea.
