A NORTHWICH café has been revealed as one of Trip Advisor’s top eateries not just in the town, but in the world.

Abda’s café, on Crown Street, has been awarded Travellers’ Choice status in recognition of its excellent customer service and reflecting the positive reviews and ratings it has received.

The awards see the consumer website rank hospitality businesses according to customer reviews and winners were determined by looking at visitor opinions and popularity over the past year.

Owner Abda Obeid-Findley said: “We were totally shocked when we found out, we had no idea that we were even in the running – I was lost for words. 

“Because it is based on customer reviews this means so much to us. Our customers are at the very heart our business and this just reiterates how important they are and hopefully shows that we’re getting it right.”

A statement from the travel website said: “Each year we comb through reviews, ratings and saves from travellers everywhere and use that info to award the very best. 

“You’re part of an exclusive group and we want to help you celebrate and promote this major accomplishment.”
