Croplines

It's been a while since I've had a coffee here.  I always expected a lot since they have a selection of coffee roasts but I really disliked the "house roast" and this always seemed to me to be a bit soft.  However on this visit I asked for a Columbian and a French roast and that was not a problem at all, so I would strongly recommend going for one of the roasts that you woud like to try.  In general its a pretty good spot to drop into.  Casual seating inside and out with a couple of cakes/biscuit options for a nibble.  The coffees were pretty good with a really nice flavour.  I would now stop by again and try some richer roasts and hopefully get some advice from the staff as to what is what with their blends/roasts.  All in all a very pleasant experience, 3.5 out of 5.

The Pantry

The Pantry has two seating areas.  The main area where you order your coffee is mainly the cafe/food section, while next door is the quiet coffee area.  The coffee was kind of OK but nothing special.  The seating was uncomfortable and awkward but the area felt like a good out of the way area to grab a coffee  but the coffee wasn't good enough to match up. 2.5 out of 5.

This Cafe

I was a bit nervous once I seen they served Moccopan.  However it was a bit better than I exepected.  Nicely served up and not bad flavour at all.  Plenty of seating and food options and generally a nice little place to meet and catchup.  2.5-3 out of 5

MoJo Music Cafe

Pretty standard stuff.  Coffees were ok but nothing special and not of a flavour that I particularly enjoyed.  Plenty of food options and the seating is fine.  Bruno Rossi is the blend used and I'm not a fan, I find it too harsh and lacks smoothness of flavour but that's a personal view after all. But all in all 3 out of 5.

P X Tapas

What a great little find.  Genovese coffee served in a no nonsense laid back atmosphere.  Just a few tables and chairs, a little alcove and a communial table to sit at.  The coffee was great, beautifully made and went down a treat.  Just the place to escape to and chill out.  I think they serve breakfasts and a couple of small food options.  Interior is basic and unpretentious and lends itself to allowing the solitary coffee drinker get away from it all or a little nook for friends to catch up.  4 out of 5

Brewed Awakening

Pretty much a big disappointment.  I was expecting alot from here but it just didn't deliver, in fact one of the main reasons why I started this blog was because of cafes like this.  You pay decent money for a cup of coffee and end up with what tastes like flavoured milk and not much better than a Nescafe or Moccona.  I just don't undertand it.  The atmosphere was pretty cold if not frosty and although they have easy chairs and free WiFi, I didn't want to stay any longer than it took to choof my coffee down.  Probably won't be back 1.5 out of 5

Morty's Coffee & Wine Bar

Gosh not sure I should say too much, probably down to the fact that they serve Coffex rather than how the staff make it and I really struggle with Coffex, it just isn't for me.  Not the best atmospheric place to go for coffee in the first place but if you want a coffee after your meal, then probably best to stroll off to somewhere else.
