3 /5 James Robinson: My review focuses on the cafe, however its worth stating that the pearl shop is lovely, and it offers some beautiful jewellery from a reasonable price point upwards.
The cafe is in a lovely spot with great views. Weve been here several times in the past and the food is usually good.
Value is average, with prices at the upper end of acceptable.
Cakes and most food was good, but the breakfast muffin was disappointing. At ÂŁ12 the price is steep, but ours arrived with no avocado and hard-poached eggs.
After enquiring, I was advised that theyd run out of avocado - which was the main draw.
The lady at the till, who was very polite and working hard for the duration of our visit, advised that she was only told about this after wed ordered, which is regrettable but understandable.
If this were the case, this should have been stated when the food arrived if it was a recent exhaustion of supply.
There is, however, no excuse for massively overcooked poached eggs.
Disappointing - hoping for better next time.
