Espresso - Nottingham

I've been here a few times and I've been disappointed by her. I'd expect something better under a brand of John Lewis. When I was the café, it seemed shameful and needed a decent one. They also do not serve quite...simple things that I would expect them to go: for example, no cut lemon with Earl Grey tea.

Compared to their main restaurant, this smaller café is a bit better by suggesting what the buyer wants, compared to the underwhelming service at 'The place to eat.' While the cakes are overpriced, the coffee is good and I 'd likely have...valued this 'good' instead of 'average' if this option was available.

Although this place can be busy at times, it serves beautiful food. The staff is very pushed and could be more helpful and it sometimes shows up. There are many tables for 2 which is good, as usually most tables elsewhere... are for 4. I often choose ice cream coffee, which for some reason do not appear on the boards only ask. The prices are what you would expect from John Lewis, but it does not seem to despise people.

This restaurant is a lovely and calming spot to enjoy a cup of coffee and a slice of cake. The desserts are delicious and the scones are especially outstanding. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. It's a great place to take a break from shopping, although finding an available table can sometimes be a bit challenging. However, we've never had to wait more than a few minutes. For those looking to relax, there are sofas available at the front of the restaurant.

The hot chocolate lacked flavor and was diluted. It was not worth the price of £2.60. The carrot cake was dry and overly sweet. I couldn't finish either of them, so I left. I will steer clear of this Espresso Bar in the future.
