Tea shop opened today! Looks beautiful, very comfy armchairs and some sweet and helpful young ladies working in there. A lot of the staff were proper French, so hopefully they'll be able to impart that 'je ne sais quoi' the owners seem to be striving for.


I had a lovely pot of some sort of posh earl grey tea all to my greedy self and am soon to be tucking into my tarte for dessert, which I took away.


Alas, I fear it is soon to be taken over by annoying ED mums, their oversized pushchairs and rowdy kids. Just as well as I am one of those annoying mums.... oooh la lah...

Cafe Nero always burn the coffee which makes for a disgusting drink. I will go in and try it on Saturday. Just think it will probably be full of us forumites but none of us will know who we are. Maybe we should have some secret signal. Like a phrase or a wink?....:))of course if you see a woman in there on saturday winking and talking babble it'll be me! carried off by the police! ha ha

wonder what time you were there davidm - we popped in briefly around 8am en route to another engagement but were very glad we did


The woman who served us was very good and very informative, talking about the soft opening mid-week and they are really keen for people to like the place. There is no "we are who we are take us or leave us" attitude at all


Nice food (snack menu) good drinks list and great selection of teas (and coffee!) -


It's not like a pub where you would feel comfotable just wandering on on your own but I can see myself going there quite a bit


Mark - I sooooo wish I was able to pop in for lunch today. But do report back

    • I suppose we are lucky that our daughters both drive so do not have alcohol when they are with us.  I start my Christmas food shopping in October, when prices are generally lower. Turkey Crown from Iceland, gammon from Sainsbury's, get put into freezer as do any other bits and pieces i.e. prawns/seafood. Fruit and veg from Aldi nearer the time,. Having 3 vegetarians plus a gluten intolerant, I make much of the other food stuff including desserts. Aldi's version of Baileys is half the price, plus beers and ciders are good value. Neither of us are wine drinkers We generally have fish or vegetarian based food from Marks plus a dessert, I suppose I have always been a careful shopper - I was a single parent for many years where all my wages went to paying the mortgage leaving around £10 a week for food and other bills. My work colleagues used to mock me when I said that a chicken would last us all the week ending up boiling up bones to make a soup base. Old habits die hard even when you have a bit more in your pocket to spend.
    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.
