    Pleasant enough independent cafe

    Black medicine coffee company is a pleasant enough cafe but its interior makes it a little more unusual than your average Starbucks or Costa with a preponderance of wood furniture and finishes. Unfortunately the overall effect is of bland beige-ness. It offers a pretty much standard range of the usual coffees, a selection of milkshakes and four standard smoothies though mine recently was overloaded with honey which dominated the flavours of the fruit (presumably out of a fear that it wouldn't be 'sweet' enough otherwise). They did a rather nice pesto and cheese melt in a foccacia which was tasty enough. The 'chilled' music was cliched and unimaginative and the cafe loses marks for me for charging extra for decaf and soya. Surely any business can spread out the costs of these products over its range like the bigger chains do? When I last checked soya milk is certainly no more expensive than cows and sometimes cheaper.
