Loudons opened in January 2011 - big spacious bakery / cafe with skandinavian furnishings, a little like Peter's Yard.  It was firstly inhabited by the odd local (me) and lots of IT / Techs and then in the last few months has been inhabited by the Yummy Mummies!  Last time I went and I kid you not, there were no less than 17 babies (and respective mums).  I think that's both comforting for parents and a warning for others!\n\nFood is all cooked fresh in site. They make a mean quiche and eggs benedict at the weekend is a must.  Coffee is good old Artisan Roast and tea is Eteaket (I think!).\n\nI must say I prefer the savouries to the cakes, but that is my wee preference!\n\nNow for the teensy niggles which by no means put me off from going.  The staff are lovely and delightful but - not particularly efficient, if you want a clean and clear table you might wait a while (sorry!).  Also, ordering can be confusing when you first arrive as there are two tills, and if one of them if not open, you might stand there for a while thinking you are being ignored!  As I said, this in now way puts me off, I'm sure all of those teensy things will improve over time.\n\nI just wish they were open later in the day! But I think, there may be plans afoot!\n\nSO - recommend highly for lunch/brunch and cofffee - just beware of the babies! :-D
