I love this restaurant. It is walking distance from home and it has become our favourite little no fuss place to go to. the food is simple but tasty and the waiters are just so friendly and kind. I would like a more cosy atmosphere for the evening but in the day it is the best!

I absolutely love this little restaurant. Have been there twice and both times were great. It's got a nice atmosphere and I can recommend their pizza and foccacia. Keep it up. Will definitely be back again.

Hi i'm the owner of Cnr Cafe & I must say I'm quite horrified to read such a negative report. The Salmon fish cake was a really successful special, I am really interested to know why Mr Chris Green thought it was awful? We take great pride in our food & I implore anyone who is not happy with a meal they recieve at Cnr Cafe to please bring it to our attention & it will replaced, fixed or changed immediately. I believe that our food has improved since the expansion!!

We met for 3 folks on Saturday from 5pm till late and even though the place is very nice and cosy we had 4 starters to share and they were very average and the focaccia was also very poor and way to crusty and drowned in olive oil. we then shared one main course between us which was a salmon fish cake- that was actually aweful. So having loved the fresh approach, since the place has expanded unfortunately the food went the opposite way!! Pity

Went there last night for the first time for my wife's birthday. The food was really good, we both had the calamari with green olives and chilli as a main and it was an interesting, well-prepared dish. The baklava cheesecake at the end was exceptional. The waiters were attentive and friendly and as a whole it was a good experience. Didn't have a problem with noise, but it wasn't that busy, being a Tuesday evening. My only criticism is that it's abit lacking in atmosphere and way too brightly lit.
