About The Bookcafé In the Quarter

Breakfast is the main event here — good coffee, generous cooked plates and a vegetarian version that comes in a smaller size if you hate wasting food, with halloumi people rave about. The matcha has a following of its own. There's plenty of seating and high chairs, plus outdoor tables, so a pram isn't a crisis, and staff notice things — someone hunting for salt gets cruets brought over without asking. Food is a bit pricey and portions are quality-over-quantity, and it gets very busy, so a weekend morning with small children will be loud. There's an app for ordering that doesn't always cooperate; just order at the counter. It sits handy for the buses and town centre shops, and one regular describes the atmosphere as the real-life version of a lo-fi coffee shop video.
