Great hygiene, but your taste buds will weep.

Welcome to L16 Cafe-Financial Ombudsman, where the food is as riveting as a 7-year complaint case. Spoiler: that’s not a compliment. Reviews are as suspicious as a banker’s holiday plans, and while Jay Overy praises Angela for her efficiency, most others are stuck in a bureaucratic nightmare of sadness. Phil called the service 'toothless' and 'feckless,' which is a creative way to say the food wasn’t the only thing lacking flavor here.

The ambiance feels more like a waiting room than a cafe, so if you’re expecting to unwind with a delicious latte, prepare to be disappointed. Honestly, the only thing this place gets right is its hygiene score. But if you’re craving financial resolution over a meal, you might find some solace here. Just don’t expect to leave happy. 😬
