Most Disliked
During peak hours, it can get quite busy, sometimes leading to longer wait times for food and drinks.
A few patrons mentioned that certain items may seem pricier compared to other options in the area, although many agree that quality justifies the cost.
Finding parking on weekends can be tricky, so arriving a little earlier or using public transport is often a smart move.
Some visitors have expressed a desire for a broader menu variety, though the current offerings already accommodate many popular choices.
On particularly busy days, finding a quieter spot for a relaxed coffee might be challenging.

A nourishing heaven! We had most amazing healthy brunch at Fore Street cafe. Everything that came to the table was so delicious. We were group of 6 and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals here. The flavors were expertly balanced, and the presentation was Instagram-worthy. The menu is thoughtfully crafted to cater to various dietary needs, and the portions are generous. The atmosphere of the cafe was very welcoming and the staffs were very polite too. Look no further and just visit here. I recommend booking table.

This place is a Gem! We look forward to our visits here everytime we venture down from Kent. The quality of produce and service is second to none and even in these trying times for hospitality standards remain the same. Love the haggis crumb with breakfast. If you want quality food and service look no further. Heard people saying was pricy well you get what you pay for in life, if you want a cheap breakfast find a Wetherspoons !!

Loved this café! Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food—just like home. Fresh veggies in the salads and wonderfully aromatic coffee really stood out. Prices are fair and portions generous. Only downside—it gets a bit noisy during peak hours, but that’s probably because it’s so popular. Will definitely come back!

I had mushrooms on toast which sounds dull & basic but it was not! It was the most delicious mushroom on toast I’ve ever had! Tarragon, cream, herb oil dressing and fancy mushrooms. I added a poached egg which was also perfect. There were plenty of vegan and gluten free options. The pastries looked amazing but I was really full after my breakfast so maybe next time. Staff are all really friendly and service was great. Dogs are allowed. Seating on 2 floors & outside.
