Breakfast was really nice, but was a little small for a "big breakfast", but saying that, I would go again! Great atmosphere, small and intimate, but for it's location, it's perfect. Staff were really friendly and smiley

My car was receiving a service and I was hungry so I popped in to see what they had to offer. When I arrived I was greeted with a smile but also by a manner of staff who clearly needs more confidence, I asked if I could sit at a table and she said the table is free until someone takes it? I was baffled by this but took a table anyway. I was startled at the prices on the menu as well as the description! I went for the large breakfast which consisted of 1 sausage 1 hash brown 2 bacon 2 eggs a handful of mushrooms half a tomato and some beans! You do get however 2 slices of bread or toast. Usually a big breakfast would consist of 2x everything however I wasn't bothered by that rather the cost! This breakfast plus 1 single can of Pepsi Max cost me £13.00!!!!! When I went to order I asked if I could swap the tomato for a extra hash brown or any other item and after checking with the manager the young girl said "they don't swap items there" who's is a first for me in my experience so I kindly asked I didn't have a tomato, I then asked if they had WiFi which sadly they didn't. The breakfast didn't take long in all honesty and was hot when served to me, the chairs were rock solid though and very uncomfortable, apparently this is a common complaint from customers that the car dealership said they had. The food was nice apart from the sausage, it wasn't cooked properly and had a strange taste other than that it wasn't bad at all. As for condiments I had to ask for vinegar and ketchup and the rock salt wouldn't grind at all, no fine salt anywhere and the ketchup was in sachets. Atmosphere was poor, the whole cafe consisted of left wing Liberal cyclists that were all complaining about the US Election with Trump being elected just hours before. As a conservative voter I found the hostility the other customers had towards people who don't agree with their narrative rather overwhelming and I couldn't help but to feel like they were all aimed at myself second guessing I was a conservative voter or what they deem as "a far right Nazi racist fascist!" Nethertheless it wasn't the cafe's fault. If I was to rate this out of 10 for me it would get a generous 6/10! If they did 2 of every item on the "big breakfast" included a drink and allowed for items to be swapped at a price of £10 then I would be more than happy to rate it a 8-9/10! They also need WiFi! You can't run a cafe with no WiFi! It's just unheard of! And a slight change to the chairs and that would most definitely receive a 10/10 from me!

Great little cafe. Excellent coffee, a great range of cakes and most of all very friendly and helpful staff, who went above and beyond to reunite me with my phone when I left it behind! 🫣

Lovely coffee shop. Friendly welcome. Some seating outside on warm days. Good value. Great coffee and cakes, and definitely coming back to try out the afternoon tea, which looked incredible. Great stop for cyclists.

stopped by on the way to a walk, plenty of parking across the road and near by. went around 3pm was quiet which was good, clean toilets and tables. kids ordered toasties and we ordered paninis. all fresh and very tasty. Kids wanted cakes which they could resist as they were all on display (good sales tactics 😆) those also tasted very good. only negative i would say is the food did take 25 mins to be made which we thought was a while considering we were the only people in there and it wasnt anything complex but i think they just took over. defo 5 star!
