About Windmill Coffee Shop

Lunch brings homemade quiches, soups and sandwiches, and cakes are on the menu too. Local produce features in the cooking, and some gluten free options are available. Dogs are welcome at the two tables right by the door. The cafe keeps daytime hours and opens every day except Wednesdays. It shares its parking with the Garden Centre.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the full breakfast, served until lunchtime, with the cakes close behind, and a club sandwich with a fried egg and salad earns a mention for its presentation. Others name a Caesar wrap, a burger and an omelette that all went down well, plus a vegan cooked breakfast on the updated menu. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and polite, and the cafe is called dog friendly, though one reviewer notes the dog area is only two tables by the door. Gluten free choices are seen as limited. Complaints are mixed: one diner sat outside for fifteen minutes with no one taking an order, then received a coffee but never the food, and was refunded without an apology. Another describes unfriendly staff and rude management, saying the place is going downhill. Reviewers also mention a pot-holed driveway shared with the Garden Centre, and one says it is busy enough that booking may be beneficial. One diner sums it up as lovely food in a small hideaway cafe.
