Customer Review Summary
Coffee is the draw most reviewers return to, with a flat white called lovely and the coffee described as great, perfect and very nice by different diners. Close behind are the breakfast rolls, especially the egg and bacon roll and a bacon roll a regular friend had championed, along with toasties, pastries, and poached eggs with portobello mushrooms. Smoothies also get a good word. Reviewers describe a welcoming, friendly team and a cosy room with a good atmosphere. The main caveat is the crowd. The cafe gets busy on weekend mornings, one reviewer advises being prepared to wait a bit for an order, and another waited for breakfast on a busy Thursday morning. One reviewer finds the menu limited, though everything they ate was good. One reviewer also singles out the beautiful fresh flowers decorating the space.

“Good coffee, good pastries, good service :) Loved the egg + bacon roll!!”

“A friend has been going for years and recommended it. He claims it does the best bacon roll in the world. I definitely enjoyed mine. The coffee was great, the smoothies were good too. A steady stream of local visitors attests to the consistently high quality food and friendly welcome. Well worth a visit if you're in the area.”

“Lovely place for having a good coffee and delicious breakfast. It was quite busy in the Thursday morning, we had to wait for our breakfast but it was not more than 15 mins. Coffee ☕️🥇”
