   10/10 experience as usual. Even on such a busy day the service was superb!

   The food here has never disappointed! I’ve eaten at the Codsall restaurant many times and have never had a bad meal. My only dissatisfaction with this last visit was the service from the staff. I’m completely understanding that the bakery was on the busier side on the day/time we booked, however I feel as though staff were not very attentive. It took them around 15 minutes to come over and take our order, and I believe it was only because I stood and started walking over to the counter that the waitress noticed we were ready to order, and we didn’t receive any cutlery until I asked when the food came out if I could get cutlery from anywhere. Despite feeling as though the service wasn’t up to the usual standard I know it to be to, I would likely return because I hope this was just a one off, and the food is always impecable.

   What a fabulous morning! The staff are always incredibly helpful here, and the food was spectacular as always! We even had takeaway cakes for later on and to gift the other halves! We highly recommend the Harrissa eggs Benedict, the brioche French toast is heavenly! As it’s mostly table service though, I would encourage your staff to ask if we would like further drinks… and also to let us know how to settle the bill. You’re almost left to your own devices after you’ve eaten and you’re missing valuable sales due to this!

   I have been here several times and always recommend it to friends & family but I will not be returning again. We arrived and the restaurant was pretty quiet and the server cleaned a booth up for us, my mother-in-law noticed window booths were emptied and asked for one of those instead and the server seemed really annoyed. She wiped the table, said it's ready and chucked the cutlery in the middle of the table with a huff. If you haven't been before your cutlery is usually lay out for you on a napkin. We then ordered our drinks and food, I had the Fried Chicken on French Toast. I was excited to try this and tucked in when it came but as soon as I moved a chicken piece off my bread there was a hair stuck to my French Toast, I immediately stopped eating and returned it to the lady at the till. I also visited the toilet a few times as I am 9 months pregnant and I had my 2 year old daughter with me, what a disgusting mess. Toilet roll lose and dirty, dirty toilet paper and on the sink and hand dryer not working. My daughter also crawled under the table to her nan and came out filthy, dropped her coat on the floor and it came out very dirty. Sugar popped not filled up and was very dirty. I am so gutted as I previously said I love it there usually, but with all that and a bill at the end for 3 meals and a few drinks coming to £57 I am honestly so disappointed and unimpressed. I will not return again or recommended this place ever again. Massive shame!

   First time and won’t be our last either Staff were tentative to my food allergens and it was delicious As we were leaving a couple came to sit behind us and the noise from his phone was too loud (this was the only downside)

   I went to Medicine as a birthday treat with my bestie. The food was lovely as always and one of the servers took my almond crossiant off the bill because it was my birthday, which was really thoughtful.

   Another fabulous breakfast: scrambled egg with sourdough with bacon on the side. Everything was delicious especially the bacon, I mean proper rashers. Served with love. What more could you ask for. I took away a couple of loaves and a pile of croissants but could easily have bought the whole counter full of goodies.

    Unfortunately for the price you pay it really isn’t worth the hype. Food was forgotten drinks order was wrong. Good under salted. The services though we can’t fault!
