My children and I absolutely love a visit to the jellyfish. The sandwiches are the best. Service with a smile without fail.

Usually get food from here around once a week when in the office and the staff are always so welcoming, the girls there work so hard to make sure food and service are outstanding. The food is all fresh and home-made, always tastes amazing. We usually go for the jacket potato with salad, which for the size/price is amazing!! Loads of salad options and always quick to prepare. If you're looking to order a few things call ahead of time to help the ladies prepare. Great thing about this place is we have many different dietary requirements in the team ie gluten free and vegetarian and this places ticks all of those boxes. There really is something for everyone.

After recently moving to the area we decided to visit the jellyfish cafe. I particularly liked the look of the outside area. When we went in we were served quickly, but managed to get chatting to a friendly local whilst waiting for our food. The lady behind the counter told us she would bring our food out for us. For under £20 we got a kids meal, a very large bap and salad and a jacket potato with generous fillings. Plus drinks on top. The food was lovely. We will be visiting again, and again!

Fantastic little cafe! Very friendly and attentive staff. I ordered a ham salad cob/roll and my goodness it didn't disappoint. Filled with proper ham and not the cheap plasticky ham, plus lots of lovely salad too.Even the tea was just as I like it. All in all great cafe with great prices. Thank you Jellyfish Cafe.
