It's nice, was very pleased with my coffee even though they seem to be more of a bar (at least in the evening when we go), service is normally fine, great if you are asking about boardgames, they do let you know when you have 30 minutes left but is otherwise average. I like the fact that the menu is on a qr code and the wifi is on the back but that might not be for everyone. Haven't had the food and I never see anyone else eating so can't comment on that.
