Closed til Friday 3rd jan25, looks great thru window. Not wheelchair accessible, so bring a friend to help up over steps. Garden out back looks inviting! Will come back one day!

I’m here every month holding essential oil classes. The coffee is great, and all the food is amazing. There is always an interesting choice of meals, and the cakes are homemade and delicious.

This place is my favourite! The food is delicious and coffees were amazing. They have the best cakes that take you back to your childhood. We were welcomed as soon as we walked in and orders taken. Service was excellent and super quick! Such an amazing atmosphere surrounded by vintage furniture. Super cosy warm feel. Would recommend to anyone, it’s so worth it! Lots of GF options too

Relaxing garden dining area out the back (looks pet friendly) - homemade frittata, curry and cake- huge pots of tea. Amazing lunch, afternoon tea spot.
