Ok, so this isn't a personal thing. Purely honest feedback about my visit for breakfast this morning. £6.99 for a full English breakfast Which is a string price and you'd expect a plate full of food. What I got was 1 rasher of bacon, 1 sausage, 1 hash brown and a portion of beans and tomatoes. I exchanged the mushrooms for an extra egg so I had 2 eggs. I'm sorry but it hardly filled me, it was very lovely and tasty b... View all feedback.

I like this place to have lunch after enjoying the facilities of the spa and massage. Good food and friendly staff in pleasant surroundings.

Nestled within a beauty salon, this charming bistro offers a cozy atmosphere and a diverse menu that caters to both casual diners and those looking for a special treat. While the afternoon tea garners rave reviews for its quality and generous servings, breakfast and lunch offerings have faced criticism for inconsistent portion sizes relative to their prices. Despite mixed feedback on value, the consistently friendly service and well-presented dishes have made this spot a favorite among locals. With its inviting ambiance and affordable treatment options, it remains a hidden gem worth exploring, especially for tea lovers and dessert enthusiasts.
