I was really looking forward to visiting this cafe, I hadn't been for 10 years, and it's likely it's changed hands since then. It's a lovely space and parking was easy. However, my family had booked a table for 8 and weren't expecting me to to be there. When I asked if a table could be added I was met with puzzled looks, incredulousness and a resounding no. OK, if it's not possible that's fine but they were so rude, with not even a sorry, I almost walked out, except I hadn't seen these family members for years in some cases. I sat at a separate, 2 person table close by (that I feel could have been moved, but nevermind) I had an omelette, which was cooked promptly and looked lovely but was a little dry, tasting more so by the end of it.

I cannot remember where the disabled toilet was so cannot comment on if it would have blocked it, but you only needed to say that at the time. My mistake for mis-remembering what time the breakfast menu finishes, but the point...

I asked for today's special 'Cajun Chicken with rice' however rather than having rice I asked for a salad instead. Nothing was too much trouble for Karen and her team. I was so pleased with my meal. Very reasonable prices and would recommend to anyone. However reserving a table is definitely recommended as it can be busy...
Read moreCalled on a Friday to see if I could make a booking for a Monday. Got the number from a friend and came highly recommended. Left a message on voicemail and it states “if I don’t call you back it’s all booked in. So imagine my surprise when I arrive today to find the place all locked up. Not called back to advise closed. I’m sure the food is lovely but communication is poor! Also maybe update your roadside sign that states you are...
