A great place to catch up with friends before or after seeing a movie at the cameo cinema next door. Coffees are well made and they always have a mouthwatering selection of cakes on offer.

Great place to relax with a yummy coffee.

We watched a movie after our food adventures, so with that coupling, that of being RIGHT next to cameo cinemas, they really should excel, in the great set up they have, ...read more

A cafe adjacent to the infamous Cameo cinema.
