Revisited February 2006 Sorry to say both food & service have gone downhill so revised Yummy Factor 6/10
Revisited March 2005 , happy to say still up to the standard of our last visit & very busy.
Visited November 2003
This very attractive Cafe Bar is the converted Church opposite The Mayflower Theatre. The conversion is stunning & well worth a visit to see the interior. As you walk in the door you are faced with a very impressive roof high wall of wine! We sat upstairs (in smoking area) & the sun was streaming in the stained glass windows. Hopefully at night time the lighting is just as effective.
The staff are young, friendly, & efficient. Menus very varied & it is possible to have "Deli" sizes of most dishes. They also do a pre-theatre menu for a very reasonable £10.50 for two courses. Visit their web site to read the menus in full & to see a few pics of the interior.
S.M. chose Moroccan Chicken & Vegetable Tagine with Fragrant Cous Cous & Spiced Potatoes from the Specials Board. It was more "stew" like than expected but excellent spicy flavours. S.A. was very impressed with Fresh Salmon Steak & Bantry Bay Mussels with Pernod, Fennel & White Wine Sauce, served with chips, ( her choice of potatoes), & a selection of fresh vegetables. As a big pasta fan I really enjoyed Smoked Ham, Leek, & Mushroom sauce with spaghetti served with a lovely mixed salad tossed in a mustard dressing & Ciabatta bread. We washed it down with our usual bottle of house white, a Chilean Chardonnay at £11.15. Finished with coffees served with a yummy Belgian choc!
Opening times vary so best to check. I think it is open all day from Thurs-Sun, sorry we were talking too much to do our job & remember the times in detail! Look forward to returning very soon!
Cost: just under £ £ £
Yummy Factor 9/10 
Report C.J.
| The higher the "Yummy" factor, the better the food & service. The higher the number of £ signs the more expensive. ( Roughly one £ sign = £5 per head ) |
