Hi Tian-Lucky you!

I’d love to try the waffles but its so hard for me to bypass the crumble. Perhaps I’ll make the effort to try them now though as I do like trying other things of theirs. Oh and their berry cheesecake is gorgeous and they serve such huge slices of it too!

hey you were in my neighbourhood (-:

their waffles are a favourite of mine (fresh and crispy) .. the spinach ricotta dumplings special was yummy too. service is friendly.

but then there were also a few misses, like the burnt banana bread toast and limpy scrambled eggs when the place was busy .. the lack of spices & tea leaves in their chai tea .. and the pumpkin fetta tart - not enough pumpkin, too eggy.

i think i need to try more desserts and i’ve got my eye on that crumble!

Hi Popeye-that’s very true, it gets even more reasonably priced if you have the Entertainment book voucher! And yep I think they’re definitely counting the tables and chairs outside

Hi blythe-I think you’re usually supposed to leave the fruit in a crumble although the crumble topping is sooo good on theirs!

i would’ve ordered two of the greek almond shortbreads instead of the crumble. once u pick out the fruit, there’s hardly anything left!

Corelli’s is great! If you have the entertainment book then you can get 2 for the price of one, I go there often

50 is a little optimistic for the seating, I think they included the tables and chairs outside.
