I usually go here to eat sweet things like cakes. I have not tried any of their savory stuff. I think they make good desserts. Carrot Cake is really good. I have also tried Orange and Almond Cake, Lemon Loaf and Vegan Chocolate Cake. Ask them to heat chocolate cake if you like it that way. All of it was good. They have a lot of seating place.

Ordered caramel cappuccino and carrot cake. The coffee was good. The carrot cake wasn’t fresh at all but it tastes good. Very overpriced for the quality of food and coffee tho.
