Shingle Inn

Went there for a sweet break. The Opera has absolutely no taste (for a coffee cake, that was quite surprising), the caramel slice should have been named butter slice. Above all, these cakes were definitely not fresh, one day, more likely two or three days old. So, way to more expensive for the quality of the service.

Absolutely disgusting service, ordered a steak sandwich, waited over 30min for it, then asked to he refunded as it was taking so long, and there weren't any customers in the shop, Still wanted my food though. Waited another 30 min, asked where my food was, and they said 'oh you've been refunded, you don't get the food, it was already made but then you wanted your money back' to which I replied this is terrible hospitality experience, you have stuffed up and you should still make the food. They replied we don't do that. Servers where rude, and so slow, no smile they didn't want to be there. Don't go here!

This cafe is unique, great old world ambiance. The food is fine, but the service is very slow. I thought the first time I waited over 30 mins for a salad may have been just a bad day, I had said I wanted to cancel by lunch as I had to return to work then the salad appeared so the enjoyment was gone. Recently I waited 40 mins for soup also I reminded them we had not been served. I won't return due to the very long wait for a simple dish. Pity
