We started with a delicious savoury starter of soup served in tiny mugs and savoury scones, beautifully presented. We declined the prosecco (as we were driving) but were offered a selection of soft drinks instead. The sandwiches and scones were scrumptious, and they even remembered my vegetarian request. The cakes and brownies were divine, and we ended up taking home some leftovers. My Dad was very impressed and we all enjoyed the excellent table service. I will definitely be returning in the future.

The flavour was lovely and the portions generous. Other options included freshly made sandwiches with tempting fillings and some hot items .Vegetarian,vegan and gluten free options we're available . We succumbed to returning to order cakes,coffee and a cuppa,all of which we would highly recommend. The ambiance is pleasant and relaxed. Today the sun shone through the windows and we enjoyed the view over the terrace as we ate our meal. A lovely way to spend a Sunday lunchtime. Staff were friendly,helpful and efficient .
