Most Disliked
Some visitors have noted that while the overall experience is pleasant, the restroom facilities could use a bit of improvement, affecting the overall cleanliness perception. Others have expressed a desire for a broader menu selection beyond fish and chips, although many agree that what Caffi Crane does serve, they do well. Occasionally, during peak hours, the café can get quite busy, meaning longer wait times for food. Those looking for a quiet, quick meal might find the atmosphere a bit lively, especially when families and groups fill the dining area.

Suprisingly nice and fresh food. Very polite service. Nice coffee too. Toilets need some improvement, but overall it was really good. Meal is tasty and they use clean oil for their chips too.

First time here. We stopped for a quick lunch. Good coffee and good food. My wife had an omelette made to her liking and I had a tasty toasted sandwich. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A nice cafe and not just fish and chips.
