Often seen this cafe on my way past in the car but today I popped in for the first time for some respite from the unexpected heat of our walk. An Earl Grey for me and a bowl of fresh water and a couple of treats for the dog. Really friendly welcome. Will definitely pop back for lunch sometime. Great atmosphere and good selection of food including some fabulous cakes.
A lovely place to be. Generous pots of tea, lovely big sandwiches and paninis. Staff were very friendly and happy for me work on one long visit and sit and while away my time on my second visit.
Visited here today because I was quite hungry and I'm so glad I did. I ordered a tuna melt panini, hot and delicious. Staff were friendly too and I really liked the interior, especially the conservatory like part of this cafe (which is the part of the cafe in which I sat inside)
Very nice local cafe. Quite spacious inside so good for families with prams and dog friendly as well. It'll be lovely when it's sunny and the sun shines through the glass roof. Great coffee and a wide selection of cakes. Will certainly be back.
Very lovely place. Amazing, friendly staff. Great carrot cake and smoothies. Coffee wasn't 100 percent to my taste but all the rest definitely outweighs it.
Excellent expresso coffee. Pleasant friendly staff. Pristinely clean toilets. Car parking across the way fee and also pay & display. Will drop by again!
Great litte cafe. Amazing service. Only had a bacon bap and a coffee but would highly recommend. Warm and relaxed atmosphere. Makes a nice change to have somewhere with character and honest kind vibes rather than you're usual high street chain with soulless, hollow staff.
Egg baps are delicious, ambience relaxed and friendly
