Oh at LAST, someone has the sense and courage to speak openly of that awful woman. What a tyrant. Everything in the place is good, the food, price, art work, even the staff, but NOT the owner woman! She seems to have a really nice side to her at first, but then NO. Rude, spiteful, nasty, judgemental, and things worse than I can express. I made the fatal mistake once of making a mild and polite complaint because we had waited over an hour for our food. "We make all our orders individually", she snapped. "I see", I say, "but an hour, when there are only three other people in here?" "Maybe you should leave then", she not quite shouts. She then storms off somewhere. We then see her stamping up and down the place, eyes blazing, and glaring wildly, leaving us wondering if we were to be served or not. We didn't dare ask of course, so we had to leave. Absolute horrible nightmare!

Well, I used to eat there all the time, and the food is seriously excellent ! There's no doubt about it. It's vegetarian at its' best.
The price ? Totally OK, well reasonable.
The service ? OK, but very slow. I don't mind that though because the food is so good, and well worth waiting for !
The staff ? Not good at all. The woman whom I think is the owner is a nightmare. I found her to be a bullying, super opinionated, trouble making, interfering, grudge bearing, feminist thug. The other lady is OK, but will always side with the bully in the never ending events of trouble. The turn over of staff is huge, I wonder why ?

We have returned here several times, and will continue to do so - the atmosphere is really tranquil. Cafe Galatea serves a variety of the freshest, crispest salads we've ever tasted, with differing nutritious accompanying dishes. You can also buy crystals, jewellery, art and throws/cushion covers. As strict vegetarians, looking for quality and originality in a restaurant, we would highly recommend dining here - open for lunch and dinner, but I think is closed either Monday or Tuesday. I would check before. Meals are freshly prepared to order, and reasonably priced around £6-7 for a main course. I would say booking is essential for the evening. Our next visit will probably be in the earlier part of an evening when it may be quieter - we have dined later in the past and waited several hours from starter to dessert.
