Ate here as a family for lunch, one thing i must mention is that we all ordered the same thing: a hallumi, hummus and pepper panini each. After ordering they took about 30 minutes to arrive not very hot, the caffe was not busy as it was about 3pm, with no apology for the late food. The food itself was okay, just the service really needs improving.

Really nice cafe. Plenty of drink options to choose from and a gorgeous selection of pottery you can paint. Showing the paint colours once it has been fired in the kiln is a good touch.

I have always loved popping into here for lunch/coffee/snacks its great with or without kids.
However the last few times we visited we were met with an attitude of inconvenience. For example yesterday I asked for a milkshake for my daughter and I was huffed at and told it ?that will take me(her) 5 minutes to make that? by the woman serving us. Which made us feel unwelcome and burdensome.
I must admit I have never seen this member of staff before, she could be new. It is the first time we ever had poor service or reception there even on extremely busy days, we have previously always been met with an accommodating attitude.

Excellent coffee, atmosphere and service on a busy and hot Friday morning!
Ange on the till gave the air of it being her own business which is rare in an employee so keep her tied down owners!!

Quick lunch stop, forgot it was half term so it was quite busy with little people painting their pottery. We both enjoyed our lunch generous fillings in the sandwiches. Salad garnish was delicious I will ask for a side salad as a main next time we visit.

Visited on a bank holiday Monday with my husband. The staff were lovely and the atmosphere was very relaxing. We had teas and some food which we enjoyed. We painted two mugs and had the best experience. Both me and my husband loved every single minute here and the only downside is that it was closing. Highly recommend!

Went to chameleon cafe yesterday.
Iam sorry but it wasn't good,
We gave our order to the young girl and she kept asking what we wanted after we had told her.
But she seemed confident and smiling so we didn't think to much about it then our food came but no drinks my wife asked for avocado but didn't get any the cafe was filling up with customers and the girls were busy on the till and making coffees so we didn't ask why the avocado was missing.
In the mean time we still had no drinks.
Anyway I went to pay the bill and when I told them we didn't receive any drinks or the avocado the manager was very polite and apologetic and I looked and the young girl and she seemed shocked that she had made this mistake.i don't want anything to happen to the young girl.
But unfortunately the young girl must have had other things on her mind I don't think we will be going there again

Hosted my friends baby shower today. Staff were fantastic and so friendly. We had our own space, weren't rushed at all. Staff couldn't do enough for us and everyone had a great time. We did pottery painting and had afternoon tea for 10 people.
Thank you so much Chamelon Cafe xx
