This place is pretty close to my work in the gasworks. I'd been working here a year before I even knew it was there, its not the easiest to find and due to the layout of that section of the gasworks it's not that easy to direct someone to it either.
I find it a nice place to go in to, its bright, open and has a nice feel to the place, the staff are attentive and efficient and will have you served in no time. Occasionally getting a seat can be tricky at the peak lunch time rush as it's not the biggest place in the world.
As for the food, I've never had cause to complain but I've never been blown away either. I think as it tends to be charging at a bit of a premium (unsurprising as its surrounded by the 'trendy' office spaces) I was expecting top notch, which sadly it isn't. For the money the portions should be a little bigger and more flavoursome. My only real complaint though would be the coffee. I would usually have an Americano with lunch and after having a half dozen or so at various times I've not found them very nice. In the mornings they've been doing £1 coffee offers which is pretty good, but sadly due to the walk and the not great nature of the coffee itself it doesn't tempt me. If I don't have any lunch with me and I need to get away from my desk for half an our I'll pop in and enjoy the refreshing atmosphere, even though I'll probably be wishing what I'm easting was a little nicer. read more
