Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is what reviewers praise most, with a lovely Eggs Benedict and cappuccino singled out and others simply calling the breakfast great. Close behind is the cooked food in general, described as freshly cooked and good value. One diner calls the liver and bacon delicious, and another loved the milkshakes. Reviewers repeatedly mention friendly, welcoming owners, and one family was looked after by a lovely young server. The cafe is described as quiet with easy background music, and a couple of visitors found it nearly empty when they arrived. One reviewer on a Cotswold road trip said it was exactly what they needed. Another family, on a boiling day, came here after a local pub gave them a long wait for a bowl of chips.
