Tier Achieved:
Mediocre energy. You'd probably do better cooking at home.
The epitome of "does the job." Safe enough, food's fine. But let's be honest — your kitchen's probably cleaner AND tastier.
Gina's Patisserie feels like it's trying really hard but still manages to trip over its own shoelaces. Hygiene is on point, but don't let that fool you. The desserts might look stunning, but they can be a mixed bag when it comes to service. Some reviewers rave about the cakes being 'the best' or 'absolutely delicious,' while others have encountered staff that seem more interested in their phone than in serving customers.
It’s a classic case of you get what you pay for, and while the prices are reasonable, you might end up feeling like you’re playing a game of culinary roulette. Decent desserts but prepare for the occasional service hiccup. Just remember to check prices before ordering, or you might get a nasty surprise like finding out the cake you loved just went up £20 overnight. 😬
