A bit like buses, cafes are coming along in twos and threes at the moment. Cafe no 95 was one that I didn't quite make it to last year, so when the opportunity arose I took it. I had a feeling that Gosforth was under-represented anway, and lo and behold there is another cafe I wasn't even aware of right opposite no 95 - the list goes on!
Anyway, to business. No 95 struck me as functional and businesslike. Plain, clean decor, proper chairs (but I bet they had sofas lurking somewhere) and high chairs in evidence, so this is obviously somewhere the young parents of Gosforth hang out.
I ordered tea and a caramel slice and was served cheerfully and efficiently. I have to say that the caramel slice was very nice, almost a minty taste, don't know what they put in it - mint? From the corner table I had a good view of the street and all the comings and goings, that's how I saw the cafe opposite.
Plus points to no 95 for staff greeting regulars, and I might have to go back and check that caramel slice again...
