Clean. Reliable. Does the job.

The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.

Decent food, great views, avoid the soup.

Cafe Limelight is the kind of place that makes you feel lucky just to find a seat. The views from the conservatory are stunning—perfect for pretending you’re having a fancy meal while you actually just snack on coffee and cakes. Dr. Oliver Sacks loved the beepers that signal when your food is ready; honestly, why don't more places have these? The afternoon tea here gets some serious love too, with one reviewer saying it was worth every penny. Mark Berridge was all about the light lunches, raving about the delightful cake selection. But let's not get too carried away; it’s not flawless. You might encounter some service hiccups, like the rude lady who doesn’t know how to take an order graciously. Still, with good hygiene and a cozy vibe, it’s a solid bet for a casual outing.

Just steer clear of the soup at £10.45 unless you want to feel like you just paid for a sip of disappointment. Overall, Cafe Limelight is a decent spot for a quick bite with a view, just don't expect Michelin-star service here.
