I was stating locally and saw this was a dog friendly cafe. I came for brunch. We were both (my dog and I) greeted warmly and were soon sat down. Thr lovely waitress bought over a saucer of treats for the pooch. I had the hottest latte I have ever had (not in a bad way, it was wonderful!) Plus a sourdough, avo, poached egg and bacon. All very tasty but I would say the bacon could have been a tad warmer. Overall a lovely, airy, friendly, reasonably priced place to enjoy a relaxing brunch. And very welcoming for the pooch too!

Stopped for breakfast a few weeks back and loved the food. I had a huge full English breakfast and it was perfectly cooked. I'd recommend making reservations as many tables were reserved. There is ample parking outside the cafe.

A lovely find in this village, amazing variety of food and drinks at good prices. Child friendly, dog friendly, very clean, plenty of parking. Staff very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Amazing omelette. Just wish the fried eggs on the breakfast hadn't been overcooked.

Why haven't we been here before? Food was great, and staff really friendly and welcoming. It was almost closing time but we were not rushed to finish. Most definitely will call again and try the cakes.

Big breakfast, great coffee and friendly service. Honestly can’t fault this place. Had a full Monty and was surprised at the portion size, clearly using fresh ingredients and good quality ones. Coffee, which was a flat white, was good and nicely presented. Staff were incredibly busy but they were attentive to everyone and made sure everyone was acknowledged and served in time. They could probably do with an extra person, which is no fault of their own or let the service down but they were clearly stretched. Can’t wait to be a regular customer. Well worth a visit.
