I am thrilled that you are getting back up and running. I've had so many relaxed and friendly hours in the cafe with friends that I am looking forward to more accompanied by a fab nut roast and side salads fit for a queen. Airy and plenty of space (unlike other cafes that cram as many in as they can) so it feels very Covid safe even without have to make big changes.

A bit of an orderly shambolic organic shop but utterly delightful. Charming staff and a wonderful array of herbs and spices sold loose and a coffee shop on the side - smells wonderful. Nothing posh but such a relief from the chain store cafes. Delicious quiche, salads and sarni's to take home. Parking available.

Lovely fresh cakes and pastries in a comfortable Cafe adjacent to a very eco friendly shop where we bought some special bread. Easy free parking. We had to wait rather too long due to a big group upstairs so check when you order!! Staff worked very hard to serve everyone.

My colleague popped out to pick up lunch for us all, and I asked him to pick me a jacket potato with tuna and cheese. When he returned with a potato no larger than a plum, a teaspoon of tuna and dusting of cheese and told me it was £6.50, I nearly fell off my chair. How on earth can you justify charging prices like that?? Utterly outrageous! est assured I will not be returning unless I suddenly win the lottery and decide to go on a diet!

Staff very friendly and a nice environment, especially relaxing upstairs. Great selection of cakes and lunch time savouries. Orange juice divine. Take-away sandwiches looked ace. Wholefood area, fresh veg and superb breads.

ideal for a hot coffee and scrumptious cake, they offer hot meals but not had any(yet!) joining it is a shop that offers natural produce from what i could see, and the far end is a haberdashery there is parking, dogs are welcome (always a plus in my book )

We had a very nice lunch here recently. The cafe is very light and airy, clean and comfortable. The food was very nice and served with a lovely salad. The staff were very friendly.

The coffee is mad exactly as you want it and is close to being the best flat white and capuccino we have had in any café. Great attention to detail and really delicious cakes. We have not had lunch here yet but I am sure it is good from comments of other customers we know.

As a coeliac I am always looking for places to eat good gluten free food. My first experience of Griffins Yard two week's ago was good. I enjoyed delicious gluten free soup served with sliced bread. However, yesterday was very different and disappointing as the soup described as chunky vegetable was like dish water with a few thinly cut vegetables floating in it and oil poured on the top. We tried adding salt to make it palatable but it was so horrible that I could not eat any of it. The cakes looked lovely but unfortunately, the only gluten free cake was a boring brownie (the gluten free do get sick of brownies being the only thing we can have). We did tell the waitress about the soup who had not commented when she collected the uneaten soup, but she just said 'sorry about that' no offer of a refund. I will be looking for another place to eat in South Molton and won't be returning to Griffin's Yard.

Soup inedible- water and oil and a few bits of veg and one taste could not eat any more. Asked when paying and told them and just said sorry no refund even though neither of us had anymore than one spoonfull

Great little cafe and shop that we only came across by chance. The staff were super helpful for mum and I as we are both Coeliacs. Good range of Gluten Free food and cakes, that were all fresh and tasted great. Nothing was too much trouble for them and I would definitely recommend popping in if you're in the area.

Griffins Yard is a shop selling organic foods which has a great cafe serving lunches, teas/coffees and cakes. It's slightly out of the centre of town, but easily walkable and definitely worth the effort (and there is a car park). By far the best place...

Enjoyed a lovely lunch at Griffin's Cafe today; tasty, fresh food, and they cater for all diets. There is also a shop within the same building, Griffin's Yard, where products such as Ecover, Faith in Nature, and whole foods are available. Will be visiting again.

A great little tapas restaurant. Small menu but perfectly executed. Unlike some tapas places they let you order a few dishes at a time. Everything we had was delicious. Service was lovely. Recommended.
