3 /5 Kat B: Overall, I really liked Gails. I thought the food was tasty and the service was good. They offer tap water, which is an unusual touch in coffee shops.
The two stars are because:
- The coffee did not taste special, it did not taste and was not presented in the way I would expect from a barista with experience. It was also £3+, which is hefty for a coffee.
- The difference in the price between eating in and eating out. How can you justify a 30p difference at all times of the day? When the café is empty?
The team all seem friendly and helpful.
Gail’s is a hybrid chain coffee shop with its (very good) attempts to offer fresh pastries and sandwiches.
