Our first coffees were luke warm and second ones hot but quite weak in flavour. 3 x cakes were good but my ham and cheese croissant was stale and lacked flavour. Service was poor. Previous dining experiences had been good until this one.

We booked, they didn’t have a table reserved, then instead of fixing it quickly they said we must’ve just booked - nope four days prior. The waitstaff were pushy with ordering. The food was ok. The best part about it was other lovely customers. Won’t go back.

This was my third lunch at this charming little bistro. Unfortunately, the food was not nearly as good as my first two meals. My daughter and I both agreed that the Croque Monsieur and Bacon & Gruyère croquettes were disappointing. They tasted like they’d been microwaved rather than freshly made or baked, and the bechamel was tasteless. However, the Pear & walnut roquette salad was delicious and they make a good Flat White. I doubt we will return, sadly, because we’d put PP on our favorites list. Has there been a recent change in ownership?

Friendly efficient service as always. The croquettes are a winner every time. Delicious coffee. A perfect spot for a catch up, very relaxing and you never feel rushed.

It was my 1st time at Platter Pantry and after many glowing reports I needed to check it out myself. I was expecting it to be good and it was. A lovely place to get together with my friends. The service was great and my food was lovely.
