  Have visited this place 4 times in the last couple of months, I'm guessing as a business they are clinging on for dear life. On my first visit I asked the tattooed chef do I order at the counter or when seated. Was instructed to sit at the single tables by the windows..... I now know why they do this, it gives the impression to people on the outside and those passing that the place is full.... on each of my visits at most 3/4 tables are occupied. I should also state that when initially entering the dining room you will usually find the floor littered with serviettes and other bits of litter...Anything liquid based i.e. baked beans, peas and scrambled eggs are cooked by chef mike... the microwave...You would think that an outlet such as this and charging what it does would actually cook the food rather than microwave it. The coffee served at this establishment tastes like no other coffee I've tasted before or wish to taste again it is vile and when you consider that a jar of Nescafe gold on average costs £5 and the muck they serve costs £2.50 per cup that is some huge mark up on catering coffee.... Today I wanted a burger from the Burger King outlet next door, I'm not sure they have fully grasped the definition of what a fast food outlet is, but a fast food outlet it isn't. I joined the back of a queue of around 10 people, they operate on the format of taking one order, cooking that order and then serving it... before taking the next order and starting the process all over again. Having waited 10 minutes in the queue before realising this I decided on the little chef instead... I should have left at this point...
  I don't know why, but there seemed to be more waitresses running around with electronic notepads to take orders than there was customers and this has been the case on all my visits.... So having read the grubby sticky menu and deciding what I wanted to eat, I then waited 10 minutes for someone to take my order.... I ordered scrambled eggs, bacon and toast and a cup of their vile coffee..... Rightly or wrongly the waitress returned with my order and said that I didn't look happy and she was probably correct.... There was no butter on the toast or butter served separately, by this time I'm just wanting out of this joint, so left the majority of it and went to pay at the till.... The waitress asked if everything was ok and I told her straight that it was crap, which took her aback.... maybe others when they visit these outlets should tell them the truth rather than trying to be polite and nice...... This place is not fit for purpose and it certainly needs a good clean...

  We had the steak and red onion baguette. We were both surprised at the size of the of the portion and the quality, a completely full plate with excellent service. A nice surprise
