Customer Review Summary
The homemade cakes draw consistent praise, with reviewers singling out gluten-free options like the carrot cake and triple chocolate pudding, plus blueberry scones and lemon cake, all displayed on separate stands to avoid cross-contact. Close behind is a menu reviewers describe as accommodating for allergies, vegan and gluten-free diets, with staff repeatedly called knowledgeable and friendly across breakfast, lunch and coffee visits. Several longtime customers say they've never had a bad experience over years of visiting. A recurring complaint concerns price versus portion, with one reviewer noting a small glass of apple juice cost around £2.80 and calling the food "well overpriced for the quality," while another found prices high for what was served. One reviewer with a toddler also describes children's meals arriving too hot and staff seeming inattentive to the child, concluding the restaurant "isn't ideal for families" even though child-free groups seemed to enjoy themselves. Visits often end with friends leaving carrying a chocolate scone home.

“Food was lovely but rather expensive for what it was. Unfortunately didn’t find the staff to be very accommodating for a young toddler - the children’s meal was brought out extremely hot, so the toddler had to wait whilst I took the food outside to cool down. Surely children’s meals should be cooked first so they’re starting to cool? Unfortunately I also found the waitress to be ignorant to the toddler when placing hot drinks & food right in front of them. Location is obviously lovely. This restaurant isn’t ideal for families, but the child-free groups looked to have a great time.”

“Our favourite place to come for breakfast, lunch or just a coffee! You can tell that everything is made with care, and great pride is taken even down to the smallest detail. The staff are welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable - would highly recommend a visit.”
- Laura Saltfleet
“Excellent service, beautiful surroundings, choice of food and drink options is excellent - for breakfast, light bite or lunch. Gluten free and vegetarian options are excellent and almost anything can be adapted. Been coming here for many years and never a bad experience. Thank you”
- Dawn Bott
“Great service and the cafe was lovely (if a little too warm) but food well overpriced for the quality and tiny glass of apple juice was something like £2.80. Sadly won’t be returning.”
- Diane Temple
“Friends meeting for an overdue chit chat at 10:30. We all enjoyed our choices and went home with a chocolate scone each. Parking is good and we'll return soon”
