The owner is a great host. I've regularly enjoyed a great customer experience here. I'm usually with one of a number of close friends, sometimes we cycle, sometimes dog walking but whatever the activity it usually ends up here for, the relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, great food, the lovely space, which includes to the 'patio' area. Simple bacon and egg butties, breakfast to a generous selection of (100% home made) cakes and wide selection of teas. I'm welcome as a, cyclist and dog walker. It's a bit of a meeting point and family spot too. This has always been one of my favourite nearby cycling stops near by Frome. Much of the food is 'home made' and I've never regreted trying anything at Cafe Nouveau. You'll most likely be served by the owner yet whoever takes the order you'll have a reliable friendly service. Bon appetit

This is the best place to go for excellent, friendly and warm service. The food has always been excellent and even in busy times has come out well presented and efficiently. The team do so well in busy times, especially as there are usually on two on duty. It is a credit to them that the cafe is clean and well looked after. The blackboard menu is well laid out and clear to read. A great selection of teas are available. I had a full English which was delicious, along with a latte, followed by a very tasty hot chocolate. Highly recommended. Looking forward to returning very soon.

Great cafe with a personal touch. Children friendly and dogs are welcome. Been here numerous times over the last eighteen months. Staff are terrific. Food outstanding. Inside is what I refer to as cosy. Great menu catering for all diets. Also provide a goody box if your meal is too much or you fancy a takeaway.

What a hidden beauty! Fan bloomin tastic food & cakes, all made in-house, lovely locally roasted coffee, fab vegan hot chocolate, chai latte, etc. Staff are brilliant, friendly & welcoming, venue is petite & gorgeous, with views across the lake & safe country walks. French doors to patio for outside eating too. Such a great find! We found our new favourite place to stop for breakfast or lunch, and just 5 mins from Sainsbury's!

Myself and my wife visited the cafe today late afternoon,the owner was very friendly ,food and drinks all great tasty and well worth the money.we sat outside and enjoyed the views of the lakes and green.I must say as I read the last review that it’s very sad in our current world that people feel that it’s important weather you have a proper cup or takeaway cup I think in the current world this would not be as important. And I would have thought that with all that has happened in the world in the last couple of years and is happening we would be past the small things but maybe that’s our family. Totally peoples choice but thoughts .I like too think people understand that customer based businesses are hard too run with short staff new staff etc etc . And if this isn’t understood then maybe they have never run a customer facing business . Please visit this little gem of a cafe as its too nice . And please keep up all your hard work and thanks for a great visit.

Has numerous others have mentioned it is a very picturesque and a relaxing place for a picnic and no traffic noise from the bypass. No signage from the bypass as there is no need to advertise as good news travels fast and it’s highly recommended by word of mouth. Good choice of homemade cakes and breakfast is all day , the lasagna was delicious, and the lady was welcoming and friendly. I never knew this lake existed until recently , and would definitely recommend the cafe , plentiful space outside to sit .

I have visited on various occasions and at different times. Initially for coffee and cake but subsequently for breakfast or lunch. The coffee is excellent and the cakes changing all the time but of very high yummy factor. There is a selection of full or lite bite breakfasts, both full carnivore and "healthy", and they are delicious and well priced. Both menu and specials lunches tick the box. It is a very warm and friendly cafe and now Spring is sprunging the terrace outside will be a suntrap which, combined with the views across the fields and lakes gives a lovely locale.

Curiously, a month ago I was searching the internet for "gluten free bakeries/ gluten free- dairy free café" so that i could arrange a relaxed wider family tea-and-cake get together and this NEVER came up on searches, despite being only 11 miles away. Luckily, a friend of a friend provided the tip off and I was not disappointed at my first visit today. For a wet sunday,it had a good number of customers, great atmosphere and choices of table or sofa seating. I had to indulge in 2 cakes (DF, GF and refined sugar free) for the sheer novelty of it and there were at least 4 tasty looking options to suit me. The salads looked very 'superfood', I didn't have a cuppa but the herbal tea or no-sugar hot chocolate stir ins will be on my list for a repeat visit. Will definitely be back. Hopefully on a better day the children can try out the play area.

Really fabulous roast enjoyed by us all - our party consisted of vegans, vegetarian and meat eaters, so you would think not the easiest to cater for as a group! All thoroughly enjoyed their meals and all agreed we would be coming back again! Staff were brilliant with excellent service provided - we all loved the quirky venue - nice to be somewhere with interesting surroundings rather than the norm..
