"I like to try different cafes and coffee shops in town when I have to go in, so I took the trouble to seek out Café Zest having seen the name on an advert on the back of a bus ticket. This in store café concession, which is owned by an Italian family named Massarella, is hidden away right at the front of the first floor of Howells store. There’s little or no signage to help you find it. That’s probably why it was almost empty. But having found it, great, just fancied a larger cup of coffee to pass some time, so ordered a large latte. Bad mistake. If you order a large latte, most places put in two shots of espresso, and in some places you even get three. But it seems not in Massarella Catering Group Zest Cafés. One puny shot of weak nasty coffee, so you basically get a mug of light brownish milk with a bit of a bitter edge. The lady behind the counter was really nice and even put another shot free of charge into a separate little cup – and that’s how it was possible to tell just how thin, weak and nasty the coffee in Zest is. Even with the second shot of weak see through coffee poured in, the latte was to my mind undrinkable. I was more than happy to put it down to experience and just go but the very pleasant understanding manager was insistent on giving a refund. Didn’t buy any food so who knows, it may be good. But I’ll never find out because this is not a place I’d come back to. Based on the poor coffee served in Zest, we’ll probably try and avoid all other Massarella Catering in store café brands (Angelica’s, Botanico and Wild Mint) as well in future. Such a shame really because coffee in Italian owned cafes is usually very good."
