What User likes about Pumpkin Cafe:
I visited the café tomorrow, just before my train to Edinburgh. I was in a hurry when I dropped my bag and my personal items spilled all over the floor. The lady behind the counter came around to help me. She kindly asked if she could assist me with everything, and then took my order for a speck sandwich and a hot chocolate. The café was excellent, and I would definitely return. View all feedback. What Jonnybs doesn't like about Pumpkin Cafe:
This is by far the worst food experience I’ve ever had, family of 4 coffees, juices and sausage or bacon sandwiches before the train. Microwaved bacon or sausage sandwich’s, yes you heard me correct, microwaved. The kids sausage sarnies were terrible bread tough as anything as it’d been in the mic and 1&1/2 sausage per sandwich, what’s they done with the half?? My bacon I opened it in front of the server to add sauce... View all feedback.

I always enjoy having a hot chocolate in the morning before my train, and the prices are very affordable. I've never had a tastier hot chocolate!

The service this morning was excellent, thanks to a friendly staff member who managed everything solo despite the busy atmosphere. She remained cheerful and att...
