My favourite local cafe! The coffee is consistently fantastic and the food is always great too. All the staff are amazing, they would often leave little notes (or sketches of my dogs) on top of my coffee during lockdown which really brightened a dreary winter lockdown day! Simon the owner knows an impressive number of locals (and their dogs) by name, and sitting by the fire with a coffee & fruit toast during winter is a must.

My husband didn't mind his bacon. It was crispy - abit too crispy in some bits.
The cauliflower salad was.. well... interesting. I'm a vegetarian and still felt like a goat eating it.
The coffee and hot choc were average.
We'll probably not go again unless we have absolutely no other option.

Good service, lovely food and coffee in a great little spot. I had the burnt cauliflower dish and it came with a fabulous fresh green herb flowery salad. Loved it. A place to make regular.

Lovely old building on the corner and the staff were very friendly. A must for brunch. The breakfast burrito was amazing as was the coffee. Plenty of vegan options available too.

Great service, great coffee. Perfect poached eggs, sourdough was okay. Must try their sandwiches

Nice cafe. Slightly pricey for what you get but food was overall good quality.

Dropped in for breakfast as I am a new local, asked if I was eating and got offered a coffee.
Coffee came promptly and after drinking it I sat for 20 min waiting to be offered breakfast.
Wasn't offered another coffee or breakfast so I paid and left.
Will not come back and defiantly will not recommend!

The coffee is below average now and if you complain the woman with the fancy eyeshadow gives you attitude. The male owner is always lovely and knows most people by name.
If this is the only place to get coffee it’s worth it but I would avoid. Shame it use to be really good.
