Upon entering Kitchen, you're greeted by a friendly atmosphere and the tantalizing aroma of freshly prepared dishes beckoning from their open kitchen. The highlight of their menu is undoubtedly the variety of sandwiches, wraps, and paninis, crafted with attention to detail and made to order.

Had a fajita chicken and cheese wrap and a latte, food was cooked properly but could have done with a bit more sauce, staff were lovely and very fast at making the coffee, but the actual food court was too crowded for my liking

Awesome value for money. Sustainable paper plates and cups with wooden knife and fork. Only gripe, plate was too small for the amount of food. Food well cooked and flavoursome.
