A good place to eat, one big gripe about the toilet

This review is especially helpful for those who have or use the following: Powerchair
Overview
Easyish to get into, good toilet (BUT see below), slightly difficult to find a comfortable spot to eat.
Transport & Parking
Several bus routes will drop you off nearby but there are no step-free stations in the vicinity.
Access
There is a ramp to the front door. The ramp is of a solid stone construction and is rather steep. Not horribly or impossibly steep, but a bit of an effort in a manual wheelchair and it could be a bit of a skid if you come down it in the rain. The front door is a bit heavy but there are always people who jump out of nowhere to help. The café is small and it can be quite difficult and awkward to find a comfortable place to park in your wheelchair for a nice relaxed snack or drink, because the tables and seating are quite crammed together.
Toilets
An excellent accessible toilet, but one thing really spoils it: the red emergency cord has been tied up so that it ends well over a metre above floor level. Anyone who falls out of their wheelchair (not unusual when transferring to a toilet) will be left stranded with no means of summoning assistance. I'm subtracting three stars for this because it's really dreadfully ignorant and dangerous to hang the cord so high.
Staff
Wonderfully friendly and helpful in every way. One star subtracted for not having the sense to provide and maintain a suitable emergency cord in the toilet.
