Popped in for a takeaway sandwich from a recommendation, completely blown away! Genuinely the best sandwich (Julius C) I’ve ever had in my life and amazing coffee. Warm and friendly service while still being efficient. Will 100% be visiting again !!

It's my 50th Birthday and my wife brought me into town for breakfast. She had chosen to bring me to Crazy Appetite and I was absoutly blown away by everything. The staff are incredible, the decor is wonderful, the food was exceptional and the staff let me choose a free piece of cake with it being my birthday. This review I'm giving is a very heart felt review and I shall most certainly be coming here again. If you havnt visited I suggest you do.

The best sandwich in town? There are lots of places to eat in town, but we keep coming back here! The staff are amazing. The food is amazing. There is a wider range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Coffee is very well made. And if you have space for dessert, there is a good choice of Italian style cakes and pastries.
