“ We stopped in leatherhead as a stopping point on a way to a funeral and this was the closest coffee point we could find, the pod is in a lovely quiet location with extremely nice outdoor seating area. The person behind the counter was extremely kind and apologetic about not having anything for children, but was helpful and makes a fantastic coffee. I was very thankful for the service provided! ”
