Cathedral Café

Arrived 1120 and found a table to sit at after clearing it ourselves. We wanted breakfast which is served until 1130. We were in the queue of just 2 ahead of us. Queued for 7 minutes! Then we were told they weren't serving breakfast -we were too late. We left and went elsewhere.

Nice place architecturally, with lots of character. Was also warm on a cold day. Coffee was ok, thought quite dark for my liking. The place if very quiet and the doors are very loud.

Great value, and quality freshly made food. Nice quiet setting and unlike most cafes and coffee shops there's no music being force fed into your ears.

My friend and I had a lovely hot chocolate. Nice and clean. My only observation is that people visiting the toilet kept leaving the door open, we noticed this as we were sat opposite. Maybe a polite notice to customers to close the door or a self close on the door.

A lovely little cafe in the courtyard at the back of the cathedral. Part of the cathedral itself, it is a beautiful place to stop for a lunch or a coffee. Food is good quality and prices are reasonable but a little high on some items.

Best coffee in the area by a mile and my wife was even tempted but the warm brie ciabata that she normally steers clear of. A little noisy due to the building materials - stone, but well worth it.

A small eaterie, tucked away in a corner of the Cathedral garden. Serving hot and cold snacks, soups, quiches, sandwiches and salads. Also cakes, scones and traybakes, are available, with a range of both hot and cold drinks. The limited staff actually serving means that service is generally slow, but they are very pleasant and friendly. Two toilets are included in the cafe area. A useful facility for those wanting just light refreshments, away from the busy city centre.

Drafty, the automatic door doesn't help. Menu has some good choices on, but is quite limited. Coffee is expensive for what it is. I imagine this is a nice little spot in the summer, but not an ideal spot for me in the winter
