About Rumbletums Café & Training Project

Customer Review Summary

Cakes are the most frequent draw, with reviewers praising the bakewell slice and a lovely choice even when the selection was small over the holidays. One reviewer notes gluten free is available, with vegan and dairy free sometimes offered. Close behind is the home cooked food, including a veggie lasagna one diner calls a new favourite, plus a fabulous selection of savoury dishes, breakfasts and sandwiches. A chai latte earns praise, and the locally roasted coffee is described as very high standard. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and polite, and diners describe a welcoming feel and a spotlessly clean room. Several value that the cafe offers training and work to young people with learning disabilities, and one parent says the learners are treated as equals. Families mention big portions, board games and books, and a little pop up shop at the back. One reviewer suggests booking a table for groups at weekends, and another noticed people who had phoned ahead to reserve their cakes.
