One of my favourites , it's a little shabby and mix match but I love that and it's cozy. It's opened all day so it's a great place to work or meet people. They serve tea, coffee and drinks so when it's 5 and you're not sure if you need a glass of wine or a cuppa, you can have both. They also do Jazz nights.
