Cafe Style - Wealden

I went to this restaurant for lunch with two friends and two children. We were the only customers there. The coffee was lukewarm, the staff seemed uncertain about the cake ingredients, and my sandwich didn't arrive until I reminded them 25 minutes after paying. I ended up eating my sandwich after everyone else had finished. To make matters worse, the owner, or who I assumed was the owner, came in and started taking photos of us for social media without asking for permission or making any conversation, especially considering there were children present. I have no plans to return to this restaurant in the future.

I had high hopes for this restaurant opening. A friend suggested it for their good coffee, but I found the coffee to be lukewarm and weak. The food was even worse. The temperature inside was so hot that the windows were steaming up, which was uncomfortable for my pregnant friend and friend with a two-month-old baby. I was expecting a great experience, but was greatly disappointed. Other friends have had similar experiences. I would recommend avoiding this place.

I have visited this restaurant several times since it opened, with both friends and family. The atmosphere is fantastic, the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction. My children enjoy coming here, which allows me to have a more peaceful and relaxing time. The coffee is always perfect, and the cakes are delicious. I highly recommend trying the brownie - you'll keep coming back for more.

We went there for a Private Function in the evening and it was great fun. The cakes and savoury food on offer looked amazing and there was a wide range of soft drinks. It was crowded and quite noisy, but all the staff remained happy and friendly right to the bitter end (despite probably us overstaying the cut off time sorry! . They cleared the tables and chatted to the guests. The cafe can be hired for private use and I would certainly recommend it. Now just need to go back in the daytime with my children!

"This coffee shop in Heathfield is hands down the best in town, and it's also the only one that welcomes dogs. The staff are incredibly friendly and skilled at making coffee. Don't hesitate to ask for oat milk, it's completely acceptable here."
