Ultimately given that it is a converted shipping container, they are limited with what they can do, however the quality of what is being delivered by the staff here is really good. It is by no means cheap (£4 for a large late), but was a genuinely nice cup of coffee - i have paid more for a smaller coffee that was not as nice before). The staff are lovely too, and i would rather spend money somewhere like here than get a Costa from the machine in Tesco opposite.

Lovely spot for a takeaway coffee. Lots of options. Tasty sweet treats too at a very reasonable price.

Staying at the premier inn around the corner. Wanted a coffee in the morning so popped round. The owner is really friendly, great customer focus. I have a wife who is very particular about her tea and only drinks Yorkshire Tea. Sadly it’s not the brand they offer BUT it was the tea he drinks, so he gave me one from his staff stash. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a black americano and a bacon butty aka (bacon roll / bacon bap ) Really soft roll and delicious bacon. I know this will be the place I go for breakfast when staying at this premier inn.
