Simple and wholesome, the lady who served us did all the work herself and was very welcoming. The aesthetic is simple and bare but in the warmest way with a beautiful authentic feel. The food we ordered was delicious, hot and filling and served quickly. Very affordable in an expensive place, would recommend!

Cute little cafe. Our dogs were allowed inside with us. The service was friendly and funny. The food was amazing and it was a fantastic stop on our circular Burton and Stow hike. Highly recommend.

After a walk around the town, we stopped for coffee & cake. The cafe was small. We had a lovely chat with the owner.

Such a cute little place! The full English breakfast and the scones were so good. The owner or server was so nice and lovely. It was a great place for a rainy day breakfast.

We stopped for breakfast here on Saturday after travelling from Cambridge. Small, quaint, and quirky. The breakfast was lovely, served with thick toast! Lovely strong tea, and a free top up. The owner was lovely, as was the food and service. Thank you

A really lovely chilled atmosphere that was very dog friendly. I had the soup of the day (butternut) and it was absolutely divine. I ordered extra toast as the bread was so delicious. Definitely recommend, and will be back!

Another hidden gem. Tasty good and good prices without the hustle and bustle of the square with just 1 minutes walk. Very nice and generous team provided freshly made from locally sourced produce food. And fresh homemade cakes.... :)
