Tinderbox

1. Perfect little cafe, ideal for sitting down and studying: plenty of plug sockets and large tables. Very polite and helpful staff, nice atmosphere, good selection of tasty cakes and drinks. My favourite cafe

2. Overall a nice place. Several tables with power plugs, great music (so far, alt folk, acoustic.. lovely). Wi-Fi pretty slow at 8 Mbps. Coffee was nice, I didn’t try the food but it looked very nice. Piano in the back room. Great location. My biggest objection? Super hot in here. I’ll bet it’s over 25° c. And the young lady that took my order was completely sullen and wouldn’t even respond when I brightly said thank you more than once. Now this could be because my accent betrayed me as American, and I couldn’t understand her question about taking in or out. She meant “for here, or to go?” in American parlance, and the Scottish accent is tough for me (though pleasant). But great atmosphere, nice place, I’d return.

3. This Tinderbox location was fast, congenial, and a nice stop to grab coffee from.

4. We went to the one on Ingram street and it was lovely. Highly recommend!

   It’s nice for an independent coffee shop. It had 2 gluten free cake options (strawberry slice or raspberry brownie, both looked nice). My decaf mocha was lovely! But my mums Cappuccino was very basic and she said they could’ve added even some chocolate sprinkles on it for a little something extra – this of course is preference!
   The strawberry slice was amazing for gluten free – it was just the right taste and textures and it was like summer. So nice to eat! Very refreshing

   The place itself is nice, and is good for a quick sit down to have a coffee and cake – especially to support independent cafes! It is definitely better than Starbucks or Costa.

   There are no gluten free options for sandwhiches etc… so bare that in mind. Only a few cake choices!

   Would go back again, the staff were lovely:)

5. Lovely service here at the back of five on a Friday 11th October – forgive me for not mentioning your names. 2 folks on duty. Warm welcome and lovely coffee.
