Popped in for a coffee and was really impressed. Staff friendly and efficient. Place was super clean and menu looked great. I’ll definitely go back for food. Coffee was really... read more good too not bitter like in some places. Really relaxed place to sit with a friend and a book swap bookshelf which is always a bonus.

Waited an hour for 2 breakfasts and 2 pies, breakfasts were...stone cold. Pie, couldnt really call it a pie, it was a few lumps of meat on the plate with a tiny square of puff pastry placed on top. Chips were the only hot food and lovely as usual. Not the usual staff we have had before, one wearing see through leggings and a crop top, none of them looked like they wanted to be there no greeting, no smiles, no sorry for the wait etc etc. More

  Your typical greasy spoon without the huge amounts of grease. Staff very friendly and always accommodating. Food is good too

  Horrendous place. Absolutely disgusting service and food. The dessert resembled flour and water glue paste I couldn’t bring myself to even try the gloop. I was humiliated, my colleague called... read more a b**ch, I was laughed at when I sent my food back.
The owner was totally dismissive of my genuine complaint. I felt intimidated and belittled by the staff. I genuinely couldn’t eat the gloop or the replacement rock hard cake! I politely told them, even to the extent of apologising for sending it back! No one should be made to feel like that. I recommend that you avoid Terrys cafe

  Ordered our meals - apple crumble - came without the crumble as it had melted in the microwave it was like a bowl of slime. Asked the serving staff what... read more was wrong with it and they said the microwave had made it like that. Chose lemon drizzle instead - this was rock hard. After informing the waiting staff this was not edible they informed us that it had been eaten all week by others and did not see any problems with it!! shocking response. The girl that is working there was rude and obnoxious, the young boy that works there was rude and pulling faces like a child.
I had to remind them about the coffee i had ordered.

We complained to the manager who had decided that he would not apologise for our experience ... WE WILL NOT BE RETURNING - DO NOT GO - BAD STAFF - BAD MANAGEMENT - AWFUL CUSTOMER SERVICES - DO NOT GO - DO NOT GO - DO NOT GO .... OVER PRICE FOR RUBBISH SERVICE FINE DINING PRICES FOR NOTHING

  I eat here 4 times a week there food is great,tasty,always hot great value for money staff always friendly would recommend it keep up the great work.

We ordered two brunch lunch (basically all day breakfast meals) AND AND being those customers asked for no tomato if possible and he was more than happy to offer substitute instead!! Well what can we say,yes bloomin please to extra bacon sir! Waited a while BUT the place was busy and when it came oh GOD I think I did a little too!

  Really friendly staff. We felt the full English brunch was not quite worth the price however the drinks and toastie were fab and the fantastic service made up for this.
