I asked what cakes they have and she said loads and then took in a huge breath and started to reel them out haha. I stopped her after about half a dozen I was impressed with her memory and the amount of cakes on offer. I chose Lemon Drizzle cake which was very moist, soft and full of lemon flavour and quite a generous portion, lots of places give you small slices, I had a nice china cup and side plate then I had a blue teapot and mint green milk jug I don’t know what happened there lol. All in all a nice little spot for a...
