Came back with a friend for a quick lunch and on this occasion I was disappointed. I ordered the…read moreeggs with Chorizo sausage and ordered extra sausage. It came with onions which wasn't detailed on the menu so I sent it back. To be fair they took it back and made me another order so they get stars for good service and doing the right thing which really pleased me!! Well done!! The downside though was the price which was £10.95 for a plate of eggs and sausage and VERY small bottle of water. I think it was worth £7-£8 but at ££10.95 is definitely overpriced. If the extra chorizo was on the plate it didn't feel like it. not sure what normal looks like but if it is half the sausages for £2 less then it is still overpriced. It was a couple of eggs and 2 cut up sausages. In fairness it was very tasty however the price for what was received left me feeling let down. Maybe this is an oddity on there menu but I will see when I come back again.

Their concept of pop up weekend dinners is fabulous, the week we were there they had smoked meats on the menu for Friday night, and Brazilian for Saturday night, I think 25 sterling fixed price per person for multi course meal. So far we have not been able to experience the pop up dinners but it sounds fantastic. Everything is so delicious, clearly a very talented culinary staff.

It's not one of your trendy, hipster,halogen lit cafes, but clearly a place the locals and business types go to for their morning coffee and take-away lunches. The owner is s friendly young German woman, she has had the business for about 4 years. We had a breakfast bap (sandwich) and a toasted bagel with coffee. The breakfast menu is somewhat limited but lunch options looked tempting, especially the home made roasted red pepper and tomato soup, only £2. The menu is posted on a blackboard and features paninis, toasties and baps, all very reasonably priced (approx £2-£3.50.). I always try to patronize a locally owned cafe rather than corporate chains and franchises which are ubiquitous everywhere you go these days, even on the Isle of Man. Why travel 6000 miles only to patronize the corporate giant with the green logo....you know who I mean!

For a reasonable price, they offer fresh juices, smoothies and other refreshments & foods. I went there everyday of my trip and the one time they screwed up my order, they gave me 2 juices free. Altogether a great place.

I've been in for a brew a few times and a bit to eat and the staff were friendly, relaxed and forthcoming for a chat - just the sort of atmosphere you want! The only thing I'd say is that you're never quite sure when it's going to be open, just seems to open when it wants - plus their social media is never updated... Live music seems to also be on quite a bit so a good alternative place to go.

Alessandro's has a wonderful homely feel to it and dishes are almost rustic - which is great when you're away from home and in need of some good comfort food. On my last visit, I had the spaghetti with prawns and asparagus in a tomato and cream based sauce - all ingredients complemented each other well, although a little heavy for me. Service was impeccable especially as we were a rather large (8+) group. Also, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of other guests present given it was a Wednesday night. All in all, Alessandro's is a great place for a quick and fillig Italian meal, with a buzz.
