What sort of roll? It would have to be something special at that price.£5.50 for a roll![]()

It's a huge disappointment. It used to be one of the main reasons I'd go into town, but since the old cafe has gone and it's become all corporate, I can see I'm only going to go now if there's something new to see.Good article, the place looks sterile and ghastly...

They booted him out after over fifteen years service.Is Billy not running the cafe anymore? They were really good to us when I put an event on there.

Yep. He was well pissed off as were the staff, who were lovely.That's really shitty.![]()
So says Adrian Searle, he also says Edward Burtynsky is 'so-so'. .. ...it was always too much cafe, not enough gallery
They've pursued a policy of encouraging more and more people to come to the point where it's shit for everyone. It used to feel to me that most of the people who visited the gallery went there because they were really keen on photography, and although those people are still going, it seems it's now also become one of those places on the map that tourists must 'do.'I've been a couple of times and always been a bit dissapointed.... The old one was much nicer.
I used to eat in the cafe once or twice a week when I was working in Covent garden. Much as I liked it, I tend to agree it felt more like a cafe with exhibitions than vice versa. Haven't been to the new one.So says Adrian Searle, he also says Edward Burtynsky is 'so-so'
