Cant believe this is the first time at this little gem.Great service, fantastic food...proper chips & lovely viewThere is a customer carpark however we parked on the main road and walked down which was not a problem.Inside has limited tables but we were offered seating until a table was free toilets on site and to give a heads up they take cash or bank transfer Will definately be going back really enjoyed our panini, salad & them chips

Good food, plenty of choice, good coffee, good location. Not a huge wait for your order either. A real hidden gem. It would be fab if there was some outdoor seating for the summer.

The English breakfast was indeed as everyone on here said - very nice. I have never been able to eat black pudding as I didn't like the way it looks like, and yet in this place I was able to eat it and it was very nice.
