Absolutely amazing - We had our wedding at this venue yesterday and it was so lovely. The food was top tier and we are so happy with how the entire day turned out. The entire staff were so precise and delicate, we are truly blessed to have had our wedding here. If anyone is thinking about booking an event here I would definitely give the venue a call or pop down when it's open to have a look around. Very affordable and we will be visiting Monks Yard often to enjoy all that the venue/cafe has to offer! A big thank you to the whole team🎉🎊

Very busy cafe along the main trunk road to Devon/Dorset. Medium size carpark, fairly easy to find. Large restaurant that's always busy serving tasty fresh food. Well recommended. We sat outside because it was lovely and sunny. Inside was very busy to get there early to make sure you get a table.

Nice location with outside seating. Staff very friendly & helpful. Great tea & cake. A couple of Gluten Free cake options and GF bread available, pity their chips aren't. Worth visiting the shops on site too and take in the amazing tree on the front lawn.

Very warm welcome from the two ladies behind the counter. Had the best bacon butty I’ve ever had. Proper bread, loads of properly cooked bacon and brown sauce. My friend had a danish pastry which she loved, but she was very jealous of my butty. Plenty of tea delivered to the table. Reasonable price. Very satisfied. Thank you all.

They had just closed when we arrived, but they welcomed us in, and we had fantastic tea and cake at a reasonable price. Fantastic friendly staff, so we'll be back soon. What a difference from the café across the road!

Buzzing atmosphere and good quality food but slghtly expensive for what it is. We had to wait a long time for our drinks, even though our food came quickly. Also a horrible smell around the toilets - possibly some sort of sewer issue.

Used to like it here until they tried to poison me today with a regular sandwich when a gluten free was ordered and reiterated multiple times to the lady who took the order. She even checked it with the kitchen twice and still managed to not put it on the ticket! Have had to rush home to be near a toilet and take my medication but she has probably ruined my month now with my reactions to Wheat! Incompetence could badly affect someone if they are not careful!

Big shout out for the new autumn menu - you don't get more seasonal than Maple Roasted Pumpkin Salad with a Maple and Hazelnut Latte chaser! The super-abundant ploughman's is my preferred go-to - so much tasty salad along with the cheese and ham - and our seven-strong party were equally thrilled by the paninis (Buffalo Chicken, and Bacon-Brie-Cranberry). There was a great buzz in the cafe while we were there, and lots of energy. The staff were friendly and delightful, as always, and the food arrived quickly despite it being a busy lunchtime. Plenty of parking, and one member of our group was grateful for the copious disability parking right by the cafe.

Had breakfast here this morning on back of other reviews. Was excellent. Really good quality food, well cooked and good service. Coffee was best I’ve had in a long time and wife had pot of tea which gave her four cups of tea. Lovely setting and really nice cafe. Would add my recommendation to others and would definitely call again if in area

The staff are sooo lovely here! Can’t believe how friendly everyone is. We stopped by on the way home from Cornwall and this seemed to be the only place where the kitchen didn’t close at 2pm - and good for them, because they’re getting all the business that their competitors are missing out on for closing early. I ordered their chicken gyros and it was absolutely delicious! My husband ordered the ham and cheese panini but he said they were a bit too heavy on the mustard. Portion sizes were decent - both came with a nice serving of salad. Would totally visit this place again if we’re in the area!

I had to order a breakfast meal because the breakfast menu stopped at 11:30, a bit late, when my breakfast came the bacon was fairly fatty and too much grease on it for me, another thing I noticed was that 3 out of the 20 tables was used for hot desking, one coffee in maybe 2 or 3 hours taking up 3 tables, why should they be allowed to do that

I had a very nice wrapp. Freshly made and plenty on the plate. I also had a lovely homemade cake . Service fast enough. The only thing is the ceiling being hight it resonates a lot, so not ideal when the place is full as it can be quite noisy. Big car park. I would recommend to book in advance as it was practically full a Wednesday at 12.

This is a lovely place with beautiful friendly staff. Comfortable and relaxing with very good outside seating front and back.

Friends suggested lunch here today. We didn't know what to expect. As soon as we entered this restaurant we felt relaxed and welcome. A beautiful old building, with lovely art on the walls. The staff were great. The menu suited every taste. Two of us had pork and apple burgers with coleslaw and fries. My husband had ham, egg and chips. My friend Paula had the tart of the day, which was mushroom and Stilton, with a salad, and extra fries. All local produce, and home made. I only live 15 minutes away, so feel like I have lost out on this beautiful venue for far too long. It also has a few other companies in the Yard. A fab gift shop, with very unusual products. Also, a yarn shop. Which is beautiful. They do have some felting products, crochet, embroidery kits, Tilda fabric. Also a venue for workshops etc. I also give them my 2022 award for the the best toilets.

Lovely. I went inside the shops. I did not use the café but it looked nice. Shops were good. The Lace Knittery fantastic, beautifully set out, lovely choice of yarns, knitters heaven! Bought yarn and patterns and stitch savers. The other shop sold very top class decor for the home and flowers/plants. I bought a bouquet of English Garden Flowers for £15. My daughter had just given her first talk about her photography. I wanted somethin- special as congratulatory gift! Both shops, really nice to me. I worry I talk too much. I'm not shy! But both owners were really nice!

A cafe attached to a conference centre. Quiet when we called in midweek for sandwiches, tea and coffee. Spacious interior with tables scattered on the grassy and paved areas outside. Dogs are only allowed outside. The road is not close so it is fairly quiet. Huge but busy car park. Sandwiches are tasty and generously filled with crisps and side salad. Tea was OK, coffee very good. Service is leisurely but not excessively slow, only open 12-2:30.
