The Poorhouse — Restaurant in England

Impromptu visit to the poorhouse for a coffee before our walk. Fantastic and very popular place the staff are very welcoming and attentative we ordered coffee and I had I think it was called a roseberry rascal (after the climb we were about to embark on our walk) a type of rock bun with cinnamon accompanied with both Jam and Butter as a bonus for those interested the building as the name suggests has a history which if asked the staff members are more than willing to explain and there's a photo album and printed sheet explain both the history and the owners images of renovation work carried out to get it to its very impressive current state well worth a visit if not just for the coffee and cake as the menu looks impressive too.
