Reviews summary
Nestled near Kingsbarns and a short drive from St Andrews, this charming tearoom-and-vintage-shop pairs sunny, characterful surroundings with homemade teas, scones and cakes (including gluten-free options). Friendly, attentive owners create a warm, welcoming atmosphere—ideal for beach or countryside walkers, dog owners and bargain-hunters who enjoy browsing unusual antiques, clothes and tea accessories. Cozy seating, proper teapots and hearty toasted sandwiches make it a delightful stop for refreshment and shopping.

Great little find. Very friendly staff. The coffee and walnut cake was delicious!
Would highly recommend this tea room. The staff are so helpful the baking is absolutely gorgeous. I'd especially recommend the Victoria sponge. Its lovely to visit somewhere a bit different with loads of character. Well definitely be back
Lovely, quirky cafe and shop with fabulous owner and a really impressive array of beautiful and unusual clothes and tea accessories among other things. Proper tea pots and lots of cake which is just what I like.
ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE little shop!! Had lunch and enjoyed coffee and homemade cakes.. not just delicious but the experience was in the atmosphere with the quaint view!! Must stop by if you're in town!! Only a 10 minute drive from St Andrew.. So worth it!!
