Edith Anice at The Old Post Office — Restaurant in England

From the moment I stepped through the door and went upstairs to the tea room of Edith Anice at The Old Post Office, I felt instantly at home. A crackling wood burner cast a warm glow across the room, its gentle heat dancing off the rustic wooden tables and chairs. The interior is a masterclass in cosy charm—weathered beams overhead, mismatched chairs tucked under sturdy farmhouse tables, and little vase of fresh flowers on every table.

The homemade mushroom soup deserves its own standing ovation. Velvety smooth and deeply hearty, and it arrived piping hot in a chunky pottery bowl. Each spoonful was a comforting hug in soup form.

As for the toastie—an absolute triumph. Golden-brown bread gave way to layers of melted cheese, parma ham, and served with home made green tomato chutney. It was crisp on the outside, gooey on the inside, and altogether perfect.

Coffee lovers, take note: their coffee is rich and balanced, with nutty undertones that never overpower. But the real star was the off-menu mocha. Even without seeing it listed, I asked and was rewarded with a cup of pure indulgence—silky espresso fused with chocolate, topped with a cloud of foam.

Normally I would only give 4 stars as the seating outside is very limited. But this place is exceptional! Great bike storage, fabulous locally produced food, great coffee and the friendliest people you could possibly meet. Needless to say our cycle group make a bee line to this place...

Lovely little first floor cafe, which we visited after walking in the area. Cosy feel, friendly atmosphere and run by nice people. We chose paninis, which came with crisps, leaves and cous-cous with a choice of dressings. We selected from a good choice of quality teas and finished with (thoroughly recommended) Home-baked Turkish Delight Brookie with strawberries and cream. All reasonably priced for the quality. Suggest booking ahead if the sun is out, so you won't be...
