We were recommended this little coffee shop as a local favourite in the folder of our holiday accommodation. It definitely didn’t disappoint! The coffee was smooth and the little treats were delicious. Quaint atmosphere too. Pet and child friendly.

A great wee coffee stop. Shady outdoor seating. Pick up some local coffee beans too.

Friendly staff and relatively quiet apart from passing cars. Good food, interesting menu like the Belgium Chocolate waffles with raspberries in my photo.

Lovely interlude, friendly for doggies, great coffee and very nice staff and clientele. I left my phone behind when I left and after realising and having a horrible 15 minutes, I arrived back to find it was there, safely in a drawer awaiting my return. Thank you everyone. The best experience at the end of a trying morning.

Friendly staff, great location with shade and lots of parking. Bench seats for larger groups as well. I ordered the Cherry Tomatoes, cheese and chutney toastie and I was very satisfied. Buttery crunchy toast and the ingredients were fresh. The hot choccy was perfwct. Dog friendly. A real hidden gem.
