Great café set in a fantastic grand venue. The staff couldn't be better, Lorraine, Angeline & Gerry are a dream team and provide a first class service. Definitely a place to visit if you're in the area, dont miss out.

Very nice food for the price. We had the lasagna and the creamy enchiladas. The enchiladas had a nice kick

Found this on google with its 4.5 rating and it did not disappoint. Food was like comfort, home-cooked food in generous portions. Find them at the 2/F of the Gallery.

Had the best apple pie, I have ever eaten. The tea came with everything you could ever need, even sweetener, liked that touch. The staff were very friendly, it was quiet when we were there, as later in the day.

Knocked a star off as it was so damned cold in there (the AC levels would please very menopausal women with hot flushes as they'd be nigh-on impossible!). But the food was delicious and service excellent. Will definitely return.
