My friend and I stopped by for a sandwich and a cup of tea before catching the train. We found only one unappealing cheese sandwich in the fridge, so we asked if they had any others. The staff said they could make us whatever we wanted, so we made our choices, paid, and sat down at a table with our tea. After waiting 20 minutes with no sandwich in sight, we asked about it and the young man seemed confused. It turned out the original staff had forgotten to make our sandwiches. The young man quickly rectified the mistake and brought us delicious sandwiches, but by then we were running late for our train. The service from the young man was good, but we were not impressed with the two ladies who took our order and money, only to forget about it.

The staff at this restaurant were very friendly and the food was delicious. The cheesy nachos and scones were particularly tasty. It was disappointing that the railway wasn't operating.

The tea and coffee at this restaurant are excellent, not the weak southern variety. The sandwiches are delicious and generously filled, and the cakes are so tempting that I couldn't resist until they were all gone, despite my concerns about my weight.

Wonderful staff and a very wide selection of delicious snacks. There is nothing better than enjoying some of these snacks with a great coffee whilst watching the trains roll in
