Popped in mid day on Saturday, ordered large spaghetti bolognaise and a Mediterranean salad. Spaghetti was cold in parts where it hadn’t been warmed up sufficiently in the microwave, pretty bland flavour. The worst salad I have ever had, the tomatoes and cucumber tasted fousty, the oil used tasted more like a cooking oil, very poor flavours. Would never eat here again. For £20 better value to be had elsewhere.

Came here for thr first time over the weekend. There was a queue but it went down quite quick. Ordered a tuna melt panini asked for no onions but told the filler is already made up so I stuck with it and for over £8 I thought it would be something special. Was very busy so was lucky to find a table. Food came out very quickly so I assumed it was already made up and just needed to be toasted. There was so much stuff in the panini but hardly any tuna or cheese or sunblushed tomatoes, but lots and lots of onions (great), leek and normal tomatoes. Panini was very disappointing, was more like a salad roll rather than tuna melt so only ate one half as the amount of onions too overpowering and as its all mixed together it's hard to pick them out. Overall, not a bad place for a busy Saturday and the staff were friendly but I definitely don't rate the panini I had, definitely not worth over £8. Maybe they should give the option to be made to the customers liking, or serve it with at least crisps or something for that price.

Came in with my newborn and toddler, the lady taking my order at the till was very slow. First she took my toddlers lunch box down wrong and was going to overcharge us. Then made me wait a very long time so she could put the order in, thankfully another member of staff stepped in. She also forgot my water so I had to go to the till and leave my kids by the table. Awful service

I visited here with my parents on a busy Tuesday before Christmas. The lady who served me was very welcoming and helpful. There was so much choice, I was a little overwhelmed when I got to the stage of ordering for myself and my parents . She patiently guided assisted and I ended up with a delicious brown bread baggette full of a tasty filling. The iced caramel coffee was lovely too. My Mum bought some lovely muffins and cakes to take home. I would highly recommend Cafe Giardino. Vegetarian options: Just ask, they will provide. Dietary restrictions: Just ask.

So me an day partner do come hear for lunch when we are in town, or I pop in for a bite, most of the time it has been good! We love the jacket tatos with chilli&cheese and the pannis aswell! The reason I'm giving it a 4 rather then 5 because somtimes the food can me a tad cold or sometimes the stuff at the till can be really slow or confused.
