Cute little cafe on a quiet street. Owner very friendly and always looking for constructive feedback for improvement. Breakfast was delicious and filling. Biscoff french toast was the best I have had. Desi and Kashmiri chai very tasty. Interior decor very nice, lots of seating upstairs. Support your local business and do pay a visit.

Cosy lunch spot with nice variety of paninis, wraps etc. I’m a bit fussy about how I like my panini and Malika’s gets it right for me every time. Friendly service too. Wish they had a branch near my house!
