    View is fantastic especially in summer time in open-air tables. Diversity of different choices in menu items with reasonable prices.

    The view is beautiful, make reservations in advance for a table directly overlooking the canal. The food is not that great.

    Great views over the river. A hidden gem right on the main road. Always good specials, fish, pasta, etc.

    A great floating like- lmodern styled coffee shop on the River Thames surrounded huge glass windows to give you that amazing view.. Ask for the daily served cakes if not seen in the menu 🙄

    The view and atmosphere is nice, but the portions are small, hence overpriced. I've had salads, sandwiches that I'd comment as "average". Cappuccino is nice. Great place for a coffee or snack.

    If you come here enjoy al fresco dining on a summer's sunday afternoon. Don't miss the beef burger. You will feel completely venetian

    Enjoy the view but NOT the food. Overpriced and awful taste. The WORST coffee in the UK. Don't even ask for espresso, you will hate it. Sorry. Kitchen smells of burnt all around the area. Not nice.

    Don't get the Tuscan omelette. The Brit and the eggs Benedict are a solid call though.
