Oh man I feel like such a sucker. I really didn't want to like this place and it has sucked me in.
I walked past this place one day late at night when it was closed and looking sad and dark with all the lights off except the one from the fridge display. And the sandwiches were still in the cabinet. At this moment I promised myself I was never getting a sandwich from this place. ever.
Fast forward one month to this monday, I decided to find a cafe where I could take my laptop and do some study in peace. The overwhelming opinion on Yelp was that Neve was the place for this so next thing I find myself in Neve, on my laptop eating one of their sandwiches...
This place has a cool vibe and the sandwiches are O-K and the coffee and cookies are a cut above. But if you want to come to Neve be willing to work for it. Be willing to turn up at 1 o'clock as I did and have all the tables taken, and be willing to share couches and bench space with strangers just to get a place. Because if you're not willing, there will be others who are.
The people who work here are really cool too, enough so that I hesitated in writing this review as I don't want them to be angry at me that I outed them about the sandwiches.
