Had a lovely afternoon tea with my friend good value for money plenty of sandwiches and delicious freshly baked cake selection. Asked for clean plates for my cakes and was no problem at all. Pretty venue and great to have a local place that serves fresh cakes and sandwiches. Will definitely be back

Very bad service from start to finish. I emailed the owner with my complaint and she could not even be bothered to respond. Very poor and unwelcoming service as soon as we entered. Not sure what the problem was. The 2 ladies could not even crack a smile, in fact it was like they did not want to be there. The cakes did not taste great, due to this and hostility towards us, I would rather take my custom elsewhere.

We popped in for a late lunch recently. This was our first visit to this cafe / bakery, having read the good, previous reviews on trip adviser & Google. At the time of our visit we were initially the only customers. It would normally put me off going in somewhere if there were no other customers but we decided to give it a go anyway. The staff were ( relatively) friendly and efficient. The food & drink was served quickly. I had the mozzerella, pesto sandwich, which was OK. It was a little dry & didn't come with any 'side' eg. Crisps or salad and so I thought it was rather overpriced for 'just' a sandwich. The coffee was hot & strong. The best part was the cake. The pistachio croissant had been warmed up and was super tasty. The cafe itself was pretty to look at, with pink decorative flowers & tables and pretty plates & crockery etc. I think the owners are trying a bit too hard to have an 'Instagrammable' venue, rather than focussing on the food itself. Anyway, It's always nice to try somewhere different. It was a satisfactory lunch but I wouldn't rush back as didn't think it was the best value in the area.

Me and my toddler love coming here. There is a little play area so he can play while I have a coffee. The food is delicious. Today I had a homemade quiche that was the nicest I've ever had- lovely buttery pastry and yummy roast veg flavours.

Took my little boy here for a treat. We had a chocolate brownie it was delicious. Beautiful, pretty little spoons to eat it with as well. To my son's delight they also had some toys and colouring for children which was great to keep him amused. Will definitely visit again to try something else. 😋

Beautiful cafe, well decorated and welcoming. Good variety of food hot and cold to choose from. Small tables, not overlooked. No loud music. Altogether a very enjoyable time - thank you.

The pub is quite large, modern and clean . Nice choice of food. There is accommodation here if you need it with plenty of parking . A large garden in the summer. Service was good friendly helpful staff.

Freshwater offer lavish and huge, tasty portions of freshly made food at a very reasonable price. My wife's first instinct that day was to go to MacDonalds but the quality of food and value for money at Freshwaters was way beyond what we would have had there. Freshwater serve you a proper meal.

Absolutely shocking service, I've been eating here for years and always found the staff kind and attentive, especially Felicity. On my last visit with my 11 year old daughter, I didn't have a booking, there were plenty of tables available, and I was told that it wasn't a problem. We were taken to a table and left waiting for 30 minutes, not even asked for a drinks order. Despite trying to attract the attention of one of the two staff that were just swanning around they simply ignored us until I got up to leave. At this point she waived and said thanks for coming?? I told the staff member that the service was shocking and that we had been ignored for 30 minutes, the reply was 'well you didn't even have a booking'. She was more concerned on prancing around the wreath making table! Despite 7 years, I won't be going back. Shame Really.

Nice quiet space and a good variety of pastries, toasties abd great variety of hot drinks, frappes, iced lattes, smoothies. I ordered the pistachio and salted caramel frappe with whipped cream on top. It was sweet enough for me so asked for a bit more syrup and they did. Very nice.
