Customer Review Summary
Homemade cakes draw repeat praise, with reviewers also highlighting a goats cheese and caramelised onion panini, an avocado and bagel breakfast, and hot chocolate. The riverside spot near the marina is called friendly and dog friendly, with one noting advance table booking. One recent visitor, though, found their last cake and coffee visit not great after previously good experiences.

“I stumbled upon this place by Fareham marina while on a long walk and was very glad to have looked in. A beautiful location on the river with lovely views of hills and countryside opposite. Friendly and helpful staff. Tasty coffee. Delicious food - I had a goats cheese and caramelised onion panini. I'm sure I'll be back.”

“Omg wife found this place on line or was told about it, we went out for a bike ride and stopped in on way back. Hot chocolate was amazing and the selection of homemade cakes was great I really was stuck for what to order they all looked so good. We arrived late afternoon just before closing so mist of the cakes were almost gone but still had a slice of each to look at.”
