I went into Filter Through café. There were no tables free in the front area. I was taken through the back room and it was dark with not enough light. I mentioned I only wanted to order a coffee. I did not get served and the staff would not allow me to move and said it was too much extra work for them to wipe my table (I had not had any food or drink). they also mentioned they would have to wipe a table that I wanted to sit at. They were not helpful or friendly. They didn 't apologise that they had not served me. I was shocked at their attitude towards a customer. They did not notice that I had not been served. They appeared to be more interested in chatting than dealing with customers. I le...
It is a rarity to find a traditional coffee shop that hasn't been compromised by the modern pursuit of profit. Filter Through is a place where you can experience a friendly greeting, excellent coffee and tea, and delicious cakes. I tried the Persian flapjack, which was wonderfully tasty, and observed other customers enjoying their meals. The relaxed atmosphere of the shop is rejuvenating, and the prices are reasonable. I only wish there was a similar coffee lounge in my area. A visit to Filter Through is definitely recommended.
We popped in to Filter Through twice during a West Country week, once for a simple coffee and snack and once for lunch. Post lockdown restrictions are in place to the extent that the toilets aren't open to customers instead you're directed to the public loos in the bus shelter block a few steps away, which are adequate but on the spartan side. Good coffee and light lunch options, friendly staff and talking point local art for sale.
The owner of the restaurant was very friendly and welcoming, but the delivery person seemed unsure of how to smile and did not provide good customer service. The oat milk latte was overly sweet and not enjoyable, and the gluten-free pre-packaged cake seemed to have been sitting for too long. Unfortunately, I will not be returning to this restaurant, as there are limited dining options in Holsworthy. Reserva una mesa ahora
Well, what a shame! We've been going to Filter Through, every few months, for years, following up a trip to a Holsworthy yarn shop. We normally sit in there for morning coffee and cake, lunch, then an afternoon hot drink, before leaving for Bideford. Today was different. We were made to feel very unwelcome and won't be going back
We came upon this coffee lounge by pure chance. It was late in the afternoon, about an hour before closing. The Lady very kindly cleaned a front table for us and we had an amazing Cream Tea. The scones were absolutely delicious. The coffee lounge was very clean and the staff were welcoming and polite.
House hunting in a stormy Devon wasn't going well and needing to find shelter and a decent coffee we popped in here (Covid compliant obviously). Great service and safe which is important at the moment. Coffee revived us, cake tempted us and we left with spirits much restored.
