Went for a meal for two on a weekend evening and were not especially impressed - the place has an odd feel to it - the management are clearly keen to try and be everything to everyone, so there's a cocktail bar/pub/restaurant, with loud music - which is nice atmosphere in the bar, but a bit odd in the restaurant (the whole thing is open plan). The staff were all very good and helpful - though we did have to move tables having sat down as a large group turned up who had apparently booked and there'd been a mix up. The food was definitely average - I had North African spiced lamb, which was very well cooked, but no taste of spice at all; my partner had rack of lamb - again excellently cooked, but the knife given was useless and when I asked for a steak knife (happily provided - good staff!) it was fairly useless too - we both agreed that the dishes had been well prepared but never actually tried by anyone. Given that the bill for a bottle of wine and 2 mains came to over £55, it definitely wasn't worth that amount - a shame.

Café Café has a fun, lively atmosphere with excellent food, a wide-ranging menu and delicious cocktails. They were very accommodating when I had to adjust my booking. I went for my birthday and had a brilliant time.

Very bland and tasteless food. Main and sides had no taste. Desert was okay but overall disapointing food especially following recommendations from elsewhere. Service was good and nice venue.

I'd have walked past this restaurant if a friend hadn't already recommended it to us. The menu we'd already previewed online and I'd been looking forward to it all week and it did not disappoint. The choice was excellent and there was plenty of fish and meat choices, I could easily have eaten there all week and not been bored with the food. The service was good, and the setting nice enough, the mains were excellent value, the wine and starter value was fairly typical, with only the cocktails which I felt could have been slightly better value perhaps. We all had an excellent evening and would certainly go back!

Sorry but we were extremely underwhelmed at this restaurant. The halloumi was lovely but where was the Gado Gado salad? Was it that leaf on top? My lamb shank looked overdone and was completely bland - where were the morrocan spices? The mash & the wine were good. My friends were similarly disappointed I'm afraid - the chips were pale and flaccid, the chicken pie was swimming in a soup rather than gravy but oh yes the mash was good! The staff whilst trying hard were perhaps a bit young & under trained. It was very loud with small tables and quite frankly, cheap & nasty cutlery. And to pay £80 for this ( mushroom starter £6-£7 for one mushroom) !!! No we cannot recommend - this restaurant is trying to be something it most definetely is not - I think maybe it should concentrate on the bar which by the sound of it was extremely popular!

The food was great with a large selection of specials. The wine was reasonable and of a good quality. The service was shocking considering how much we paid for our meal we had limited interaction. The only time staff actually spoke was to initially ask for drinks and our main meal. Their idea of service was to stand at the edge of our table, waiting for us to speak.

Took two friends to the restaurant and we had a great time. The waitress didn't offer us the set dinner menu which included a glass of wine until I asked. By that time we had ordered a bottle of wine, so we queried that and the waitress agreed to take the price of a glass of wine from the bottle of wine, which was fine. The food was excellent as usual. The only thing the restaurant should note , is that your waitress or waiters should be able to describe even if only briefly what the food is, not say I don't know and leave it like that! We had to ask her to find out for us. Great food, Great atmosphere and the set menus are value for money.

Food was great but due to large parties at the bar area it was so noisy you were unable to talk at your table only shout at each other!
