Why they didn't stop and go earlier I can only assume that her mother didn't hold the special day out of doubt, but I saw her sitting in the toilet quite badly later! Oh yes, please come to a dog friendly caffe, pay for those who will soon be parked and treated like something they have done! indien and the staff (apart from the young blonde lad, which was absolutely wonderful, I can add) must be bagged pronto before they get rid of more customers. I'd rather sit outside in the pouring rain with a coffee from the horse box than hit back foot! also the creamtee looked like a chimps tee party, the sponges were crumble and disintegrate on the plate, so bad I overheard a waitress say she wouldn't charge on the sponge. I'm waiting for basil from the kitchen. the personal who tries to serve the cake stands like puzzles, sprinting over the room, relaxing was definitiw not happened in there today and the floor was a scandal! They would not see any dog hair for the lumps of cake, crust out sandwiches and other rubbish on the floor! in the did, this is likely why these young ladies do not want their little dog on the floor incase it ate a bit forward! this caffe could have actually had a fairly large animal bill! greasy spoon and high school canteen sources to think. dog lovers do yourself a fallen and avoid costing to all, this facility is diabolical, enough you said!

However, the gluten-free fish and chips option at this restaurant was absolutely incredible. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a meal this much. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!
