Kitsch - Stroud

We waited 15 minutes and still didn't receive our coffee. The menu is limited and expensive. The location is great and the staff are friendly, but the management seems lacking.

Although the restaurant has high chairs, which might suggest that they cater to children, my wife's recent visit with her family proved otherwise. Despite checking the menus online beforehand, they were informed upon arrival that the online menus were outdated. This meant that the items they had intended to order were no longer available. When my wife requested a children's menu, she was told that they did not have one and would have to order from the regular menu instead. She chose beans on toast for our 3-year-old, but was then informed that it was not possible as breakfast service had ended 20 minutes prior and the toaster had already been put away. Their only options for the child were expensive bagels or baguettes, which we knew our picky eater would not likely eat. The unhelpful staff and lack of response to our message to the business personally were disappointing. While we like to support local businesses, it is important for them to prioritize customer care. Unfortunately, we do not plan on returning to this restaurant anytime soon.

The music at this restaurant is very loud, so be prepared to have difficulty hearing yourself. It doesn't quite fit the ambiance of the area and feels more like a noisy seaside venue.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly, helpful staff in a great position near the canal. It has a small menu but certainly enough choice and the food was plentiful and very tasty.No children's menu but happy to adapt a toasty for grandson, Mum had the special Highland vegetable soup which she really enjoyed and me the nachos-perfect. I will definitely return when next up.

Lovely pit stop whilst walking along the canal for nice coffee and pecan cake… add to it some really pleasant friendly staff.. would recommend and will visit again…
