Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the cream tea and fruit scones, described as light and slightly crisp with a buttery soft crumb, Devon clotted cream and fruity jam. One reviewer calls them the best fruit scones they have had, and another mentions a chocolate cream tea with Nutella that a daughter loved. Close behind is the cooked breakfast, with diners praising the fried breakfast and a bacon sandwich, plus a flat white, mugs of tea and scrambled eggs, all described as hot and delicious. Staff are repeatedly called friendly, welcoming and nice, and several reviewers describe the place as clean and homemade in its cooking. The recurring complaint is heat. One reviewer notes there is no air con, another calls the place hot, and one says the smell from the kitchen was unpleasant and stayed on their clothes afterward. One also found the sandwich wait quite long, though the filling was plentiful. A local who never expected to go in says the food was great and plans to return, and a visitor on holiday is going back the next day.

“Very bright and clean café with attentive and efficient staff. Breakfast was a cheap £7.95, plus £1 for black pudding, food was hot, and much like many available locally. We also had the Lasagne that my wife enjoyed, scones were good, and the coffee was large.”
