Didn’t see that the sandwich came with fruit, especially some I’m allergic to. Had I’d known I’d want to replace it, and had to replace half of my order anyways as it wasn’t available and didn’t know until I was picking up the order.

It was so good and refreshing on a hot day. The female staff was professional and courteous.

I now need to pop into the cafe, and review that. They took cash and cards, so super convenient.
