TAG Drinks

Rating: 5/5

Where: 199 Field End Road, Eastcote HA5 1QZ England

"We came in for a light lunch of a toasted sandwich and tea. I had a Italian chicken sandwich which was lovely. They take their tea very seriously and even though we had builders tea it was served with a timer so we knew when it was perfectly brewed. I will definitely be back."

Crazy Goat Co
