Good events, disappointing as a cafe

Review of CNEX Salon Cafe
3

I've been to a couple of events at CNEX, most of which have been really good. They host a wide range of screenings, usually showing films and documentaries which are hard to see anywhere else.

As a cafe, however, CNEX is a bit of a let down. Whenever there has been a break during the events I've been to, the cafe staff seem completely overwhelmed. The fact that they seem to take 5 minutes minimum to make each cup of coffee doesn't help. Once you get the coffee it's fine, but it can be a long wait. I haven't tried the food, but their barista skills don't inspire confidence.

CNEX can also be very tricky to find.

Top marks for their events, but low marks for cafe service.
