I live locally and my husband and I have stopped by a few times to grab a quick take away sandwich. I stopped by yesterday to eat-in because I had a few minutes to spare and ordered the 'Goats cheese & Sun dried tomato' sandwich. As I stood at the counter I saw the lady fumbling to look for the cheese but didn't think much of it as I made my way to sit at a table. A few minutes later when I received my sandwich I couldn't see any white colored goats cheese in it. I took a bite and confirmed it was NOT goats cheese as it turned out to be yellow cheese. I went to the counter TWICE and politely asked which cheese they used because I know what Goats cheese tastes like and the fact that Goats cheese is always white. The staff member insisted what they gave me was Goats cheese and eventually showed me the cheese they used, which was YELLOW and labelled 'Giglio Cheese'. She claimed this was Goats cheese from Sardinia. Despite my explanation (and I wasn't complaining, I was pointing out that what they gave me was not what I ordered) all 3 of the staff members teamed up and insisted there are different types of Goats cheese and this is the type of Goats cheese made from Sardinia. I google'd Giglio Cheese when I got home and it is SHEEP'S CHEESE. Considering there are people who may have specific allergies, I would not recommend this cafe to anyone as they seem to think they can replace ingredients without your consent and insist they are what they are NOT.

The products they sell are really good quality and the staff are always really friendly. The only problem I have is that they often go a long time without restocking items. I've gone in a few times for coffee onlyto find that there aren't enough tables. It's unfortunate that they don't have a huge amount of space but it's a great compliment to them that they're always so busy! The staff are always really helpful and eager to get you whatever you want.

This place is not only ideal for finding presents for your friends or colleagues, but it's also great to treat yourself. This is what I would recommend: try out their jams and chutneys; in fact, you just pick the ones with the "Gold Taste Award" label then you shouldn't go wrong...they really deserve that award! And even if you don't need anything...I'm almost sure you wouldn't walk out this store empty-handedly...it's that good!

With so many great deli's and cake shops along the Broadway it's a nice place to come to get away for the afternoon. W Martyn is one of the more old fashioned tea and cake shops that has been in business for over a century. I love the fact that I can pop in here, just as past family members have done so over the years, and still be guaranteed to find great food and the same friendly, family run atmosphere the shop has always had. The interior is the same too and the staff will wait behind a condiment stacked counter to serve you, before passing you onto the little window counter to pay. They also use old fashioned weighing scales and a ladder to reach the higher shelves. After all, why change a good thing? The fresh roast coffee wafting through the door is enough to bring you inside and then you're spoilt for choice with traditional English treats. I'm actually in love with their Farmhouse Fruit Cake and I now can't have a cup of tea without it.

(I'm not actually vegan; the pesto is just wonderful!) You know that you've found indulgence when you've found a shop that sells tea in pillows rather than bags. You know when you've found love when you've found a shop that sells organic lime and tequila marmalade. The place is just outside Highgate Underground station and one of the first places I shopped when I first moved here. The place is small, not particularly pretentious but very artisan and supplies more simple things such as a small selection of frozen foods and toiletries. I try not to come here as I do tend to raid the antipasti and the weird and wonderful marmalade. So much quality so much temptation and worth a visit.
