Cafe 154 - Epping Forest

The ambiance of the cafe has greatly improved with its warmth, but the staff are still unfriendly. There was little interaction when I placed my order at the counter, and none when my plate was collected or delivered. The steak pudding I had was mediocre, but the cafe itself was very clean and spacious. The coffee was hot and creamy.

The sweet chili chicken sandwich was huge and packed with filling. The coffee was delicious as well. The service was excellent and the meal was great value for the price.

The restaurant caters to the employees of the industrial area, so there is limited parking available. The interior of the restaurant is simple, with some windows open to let out cooking smells, making it a bit cold. We had to eat with our coats on, which is not something we typically do. The service is quick but not very friendly. The food is nicely presented but only mediocre. I may come back in the summer when it's warmer.

Fantastic meat, it's expensive, but they get what they pay. eating was extraordinary and the staff was friendly and attentive. I am very pleased to visit this place again.

Perfect place to go for a good local lunch/dinner. If I fancy fish then I usually always end up in Smiths.
