  • I made a visit here today and was let down by pretty much everything. From entering where I was ignored by two different staff, to being told by more staff there was no food available (when I could see many tasty looking treats available), to being served luke warm tea, to finally being asked to pay more then the advertised price for my beverages (thankfully the manager stepped in and corrected this) my entire experience at this cafe was horrible. I will never make the mistake of heading here again. If in this part of town, there are so many better places to go, ie Workshop, Modern Pantry, St John.

  • I went for the first time today with a girlfriend and we had an amazing time, the food is delicious and fresh and the atmosphere is arty like garage/warehouse style, very original and not too pricey! I also love the area very peaceful and quiet but modern. I will definitely go again, it is one of my favourite places for lunch/ brunch !

  • Just had an AMAZING J&A breakfast with Soda bread side. i've ordered this loads of times but today it was especially good. I was so hungry and cold and really hankering after some home comforts. I was greeted by a lovely girl at the door an then walked through the buzzing cafe to upstairs where (I've not been before) and sat down. A news paper was handed to me and a well poured flat white shortly followed. Best spend hour this year so far. Same time same place next week J&A?

  • I LOVE this place! I recently discovered this hidden gem with a friend and have returned many times since. The food has been delicious every time and the staff are very welcoming and helpful with their recommendations. It's refreshing to find a place that is not part of a chain and make all their food on site.

  • I have to disagree with the last comment. I am a regular at J+A and have been since they opened I take all of my friends there and my parents. The service is always friendly and prompt and I have never been disapointed with my breakfast or lunch and I've tried most of them. You must have been there on an off day- they happn to all of us... ps You should try the Chocolate Guinness Cake!

  • I would not recommend this place at all! My colleagues and I went to J&A for breakfast this morning, and were very disappointed. Firstly the service was appalling, especially annoying when the number of staff almost matched the number of customers! We had to tell the nonchalant waitress that we wanted to order our food. The OK breakfasts were definitely not worth waiting an hour for, to top it off they forgot about one breakfast and didn’t even apologise. Definitely not the place to go unless you have all day!
