What to order
We serve illy coffee, so if you just want a reliable flat white or cappuccino on the way to work, that is what you will get. If you are after something you will not find at the chains, try one of our chais: karak, Kashmiri or masala. For lunch there are jacket potatoes with your choice of fillings, and there is always cake on the counter. The full list, with prices and allergens, is on the menu.
