A warm welcome for my daughter and I plus her dog. We were there for brunch yesterday. I had a delicious poached egg, avocado and feta brunch and my daughter had a traditional English breakfast. Perfectly cooked thank you.

Lovely cafe! Visited on a very quiet Tuesday morning. The rainbow bagel was lovely, very fresh with plenty of bacon. Coffee wasn’t the best - but I am very fussy over coffee.

Came for afternoon tea for my partners birthday. Lovely time and the food was very enjoyable. We were allowed to bring some fizz for a small corkage. Dog friendly. They even put some candles on and sang happy birthday as they brought the food out, much to my partners horror (and my delight!)

Lovely place, we had the afternoon tea which comes with loads of lovely food. You have a good choice for each afternoon tea which we're all very nice. The scones are the highlight and taste incredible. One of the best afternoon teas I've ever had. The staff and service were excellent and very attentive. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars was because its a little cramped. Overall it has a great atmosphere and fantastic. Service and food.

Absolutely stunning lunch today, we hadn't booked a table & it was super busy. But they still found us a little table for 2 plus my dog! We had soup of the day, which was delicious, a rainbow club bagel with a gorgeous dirty chai latte & caramel iced coffee. Service was fantastic, really personal touch. We would love to return whe we are next in the area.
