Reviews The Witchin' Kitchen

The Witchin kitchen – Review:

Hubby and I met up with friends for a pre-Christmas lunch here. Our lady friend (the artist) is a vegan, so this was a great venue for us. The Kitchen is in an old corner store, and has a coffee place attached. Love the décor, the tiles, and the coloured-glass highset windows. Our friends had a vego/vegan pie each, with a smear of a spicy, orange purée – pumpkin maybe, or sweet potato? Tasty anyway. Hubby ate sweet potato, carrot and corn fritters, with eggs, labneh and salad. They were golden-brown and crispy on the outside, and moist on the inside. The eggs were well-cooked, with runny insides – as they should be. Salad was very green and leafy; a healthy little side. We shared fries with aioli, which went down a treat. I chose Bug’s Brekkie Burger – fried eggs, hash brown, halloumi, avocado, leaves and beetroot hollandaise (a fabulous shade of pink!) on a brioche bun. Oddly, I only got one egg, not the two on the menu, but no matter, I really loved this tasty and filling dish. Soft avocado, a bright pink hollandaise, a beautifully done egg with a runny middle, not too many leaves on a not too sweet bun. He had a strawberry milkshake, while I drank a chocolate one. Very filling! All up, a very pleasant lunch in a pleasant spot. Service (as per usual these days) is perfunctory, with DIY ordering at the counter. It has become ubiquitous, so I guess I can’t blame them for that.

Really cute new local café. Removing plastic straws from their drinks would be the cherry on top!
