They have a lot of gluten free options and they all look and sound good! Had the cake and Brie and fig (both gluten free) and it was super tasty!

“Good vibes, amazing style/architecture/theme, good music, quiet so it's perfect for people who would like to go and do some work on their laptops and get some fresh air and a tasty cuppa. Good selection of beverages and pastry to enjoy with. It's a little cozy corner of tranquility. Unless I am around and start chatting or ranting about life. Enjoy your time there!!!”

“So staying in Guildford for a few days. I wanted to try something different other than McDonald's or your standard chain. I found this after searching Google with great reviews, I knew I was expecting high things. Walking in it's a great atmosphere. I order the breakfast baguette with chips. I didn't have to wait too long and the portion size was great and not to much and not too little. There is an outside area with a roof to cover from rain etc. Also, the inside is nice and very well decorated. There is one toilet and it also has baby changing facilities. Overall, I really recommend and worth having a trip too, maybe a short walk from town but well worth it. If I'm back in Guildford, I'll be back.”

“Best coffee in Guildford, friendly service and an array of cakes that are all fresh and delicious. Child and dog friendly. They also do breakfast and lunches, take away if you like. This place is so good it can get quite busy. It is also popular with young mums and their children, but this only adds to the vibrant atmosphere.”

“This is the only cafe I go to during the week. It’s not too far from my office but if it was closer, I would be getting coffee in the afternoon too. Staff work so hard here and I really love the food. Traditional pastries, savoury and sweet but also fresh paninis if I don’t fancy a pastry. I put a 4 star for food, not because of quality, but because I think salads would be a nice addition to the menu. No where in Guildford does it so it could be a big win! Wouldn’t even have to be hugely gourmet ones. And maybe smaller pieces of bougatsa as an option too next to large portions like the kataifi but that’s a minor thing. Thank you for all the nice convos while waiting for food and making everyone feel so welcome. If the food wasn’t so good I might’ve had time to take more photos. Also let me use my travel mugs :) Efcharisto!”

“Came for the italian style hot chocolate and it didn't disappoint. It's very rich and decadent so even though I really enjoyed it I couldn't finish it. Next time I think I'll get something savoury to go with it. Service was also very good and friendly and it's seemed to be very popular.”

“Popped in for a coffee and Bakewell Tart. Excellent and not expensive. Great service and clean. Just at the top of Guildford so not too busy at 2.30pm. Quite a lot of estate agents grabbing a coffee. Probably quiet with over inflated rents and house prices 😉”

“Great coffee shop hidden in one of the tranquil narrow path ways of Guildford high Street. Great food served in a very tiny setting which gave us a little bit of a squashed feeling. But in general it was a fantastic experience, gorgeous coffee and a lovely Mother's day treat.”

“Such a great coffee shop. My husband is a coffee snob and highly recommends the authentic and variety of coffee here. The people were very friendly as well. Only lost a star because there really isn't any seating (I understand it is limited to their space) but great idea to have two ordering stations to keep the shop from overcrowding. Wish there was one closer to us!”
