I'd like to firstly point out how surprised I am, this branch of Caffe Nero hasn't even been given a listing yet on Yelp, let alone been reviewed as it is a big name on the UK high street, albeit not as big as giants Starbucks and Costa. This is quite a nice store, located on London Road on the same side as both Waitrose and Costa Coffee.
The staff here did seem quite nice, and they did have a nice range of cold drinks or 'Frappes' ready to blend as well as cakes and sandwiches.
This place did seem quite nice in terms of decor, yet with a large step at the front and only limited seating before steps on the ground floor, it isn't the most accesiable with the only tables being low down or small booths, which is a shame.
I ordered a Speciallity Caramel Latte, which is basically a latte with Vanilla and topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. My drink was satisfactory and it did go well with the caramel drizzle, however there was too much cream, and in a way it just tasted bland, and there were just heaps and heaps of it, making the drink seem cheap, I even struggled to drink the bottom 15% of so of the drink as it was just too sweet, sweeter than eating pure sugar!
The staff here seemed nice enough but this place is just average and because of issues with my drink and access I sadly feel it is on the lower scale of average, to only warrant two stars, albeit I do admit it is more of a 2.6 yet it has not done anywhere near enough to deserve three stars, sadly. read more
