Customer Review Summary
Homemade cake is what reviewers return to most, with one reviewer calling the shortbread the most delicious they have ever tasted and others taking cake back to a caravan or to go. Filter coffee and tea come close behind, with a reviewer noting good drink options. The owner features in nearly every account as lovely, friendly and chatty, and reviewers say she prepares everything herself and gives helpful tips on local walks and places of interest. A small selection of antiques for sale is a recurring bonus, with one reviewer going back the next day for one item and leaving with six, and another bringing home a vase as a keepsake of the visit. Reviewers describe the tea garden as peaceful, quaint and spotlessly clean, and one cautions not to expect a fast food experience. One visitor with scruffy dogs after a wet woods walk took their cake back to the caravan instead of sitting in, and even forgot to pay before going back to settle up.

“It was a pleasure for my wife and i to return to this exquisite coffee/antique shop. Our vase shall remind us of our return trip to Kippford and Rockcliffe and our chat with the owner. Wishing you a successful season ahead.”

“If our dogs were not so scruffy after the wet 7 stanes woods walk it would have been a lovely place to sit - however the cake we brought back to the caravan was delightful - It was me that got away before paying ( whooops- hahah I did go back tho ) Owner is as delightful as their cake 💕 …”
