The Cheeky Cherub

1. I was recommended The Cheeky Cherub by my sister in laws friend. Wow definitely didn’t disappoint. The food is outstanding, very fresh and the service was excellent. All the staff were so nice. We went for lunch and never get dessert but wow the desserts looked so good we had to have it. Incredible. Beautiful decor as well and toilets are so clean and cute

2. Lovely spot for a coffee and a bite to eat. Well priced and parking available to the side. Extra seating upstairs and there is a disabled parking spot as well which was very much appreciated.

   Staff were friendly and helpful and I really love the idea that they have a note on each table to explain busy periods and possible wait times. This is a great and useful way to make customers aware that the staff understand their business and busy times.

   Toasted bagel with cream cheese was delicious and the toasted ham and cheese was very tasty. I opted for the nacho chips with dip instead of coleslaw.

   Cappuccino was great and as I love a mocha, I give it 👍👍

3. The 1st time I went here i had a great time, the staff were lovely and the food was great (baked potato with bacon and chicken) so good , and a great price.
   But wait….
   On my second visit, I was first met with a very unpleasant member of staff cleaning tables,
   she advised me where to sit , and I had a spot in mind that I assumed was fine , but she insisted that i sat at her choice .. I did not
   as it was cramped and I didnt feel comfortable –
   and of course Im the paying customer (I was polite and didnt make a fuss)

   This is where it went wrong or so it seemed,
   as from here on out , I felt like i was an ememy of the establishment,

   Gave me the wrong drink,
   no sauce for my food,
   and was left sitting for 30 minutes waiting on service
   ( I got 0 cake today)
   after the waitress had just cleared a table close to me ,
   well aware of my existence.

   Was it because of my accent? 😬
   Was it because of my choice of seating?😬

   Idk but what I do know is that they will get 1 more chance to do better, and I will be updating my review very soon.

   And I dont have to tell you that second chances are rare , when made to feel so UNWANTED as I tap my bank card to pay like the fool I must be .

   4/10 🌟
   And every point removed was because of the terrible service I recieved today.

4. This is a great cafe for coffee and cake, brunch or lunch. The menu has something for everyone, the coffee is very good and the fresh cakes are always a favourite. The cafe also has friendly staff, and a nice family atmosphere.

5. I started going to the Cheeky Cherub when I first moved to the area. I was on maternity leave, and my older kids had clubs at the school down the road, so I had an hour to kill twice a week. I would go to the Cherub and get a drink. The food was priced reasonably, the girls very friendly and welcoming, and the service quick. I did this for months.

   At the end of the school term, I would take my kids in to get cake as a treat, and they are consistently gorgeous. My personal favourite is the apple pie or the banoffee cheesecake. My kids adore the chocolate fudge.

   These days, I don’t often get the chance to stop in as regularly as we used to. But when we do, the girls always recognise us, the kids are excited to spend some time and, of course, cake.

   I’ve taken visiting relatives, the husband for lunch, stolen a few hours to get work done alone, and my experience has always been pleasant and refreshing.

   A worth it stop should you pass through Glengormley.
