Fab cake, good coffee. I haven't tried the savoury food yet but it sounds interesting. Not the cheapest, but it is v good.

My second time visiting this place and the staff were found to be consistently accommodating/friendly and relaxed. The food was amazing - just what we needed after a swim in the river. Left this place feeling happy and full bellied - that’s what it’s all about. Keep up the good work guys x

stopped here for brunch on way back to aberdeen, what a wee gem this place is...Toni the boss was so welcoming and charming and so were the other gents coming around to the tables to ensure all diners are getting what we ordered, the tortellini special and salmon sandwich was wonderful, really enjoyed our brunch and a must stop place if you're around kingaussie, very highly recommended👍👍👍

Despite being a many times visitor to the area we had never been here before and when I read the name of the location my instinct was that it would be small and busy and probably sell cakes and coffee. [Oddly, as a reviewer, I dont always read previous reviews!] Anyhow we got here around 12, got an official car parking space and there were lots of tables inside. 15 minutes later it was mobbed and it was obvious why. From the first contact to the last the service was impeccable, friendly and helpful. My wife who has a chilli allergy got a wee taste of the thai chicken soup to check out just how spicy it was and that was incredibly useful. But the "worst" was yet to come. We opted for the combo deal and my goodness the plate wasn't really big enough to cope with it. Let alone our "seniors" appetite. Tea was served in a proper teapot. A proper BIG teapot and was enough to have lasted us all afternoon but for the fact that there was a queue and I felt bad hogging the table. Let me be quite clear - no one came checking to see if we were finished "to hurry us up", unlike some places weve been in. This is a busy but relaxed place to be and we could have sat all day. The cakes looked amazing but they too were gigantic. So in summary if you're in the area get here early enough to get a space. You wont regret it. In fact as I am writing this review at 6am on the day after, I am thinking maybe today we could go back and manage coffee and cake this afternoon......? This next bit is nothing to do with the location - as we sat in the window of the cafe I was looking out on to National Cycle route 7 and a road I had never explored. That is enough of a reason for me. After lunch we took a drive down it to Loch Insch - stunning views and thence to Ruthven Barracks. If you go slowly it will take around 30 minutes but entirely worth the detour.

Best service, this is a cozy small place and food just takes your heart. Best way to reach is cycling, and enjoying the nature it's surrounded by. We cycled from kingussie and can say it's perfect spot. Over all the hot chocolate is icing on cake. Which reminds me their cakes options are so wide and delicious.

Visited here on way to Grantown on Spey. Although not vegan we chose a vegan sandwich...coronation cauliflower. It was the best sandwich filling we have ever had! I am going to try and recreate it next time we have our vegan visitors! Seemed to be a very popular cafe . A bit too cold to eat outside this time of year so had to leave our dog in the car but I think in warmer weather we could have her outside with us

After a WET 3 mile walk to get to the OPO we arrived to be told ‘no dogs’. There was an outside area with table and chairs which could have been wiped down, as well as a canopy that could have been used to accommodate us, but no offer was made. We trudged back to our campsite, disappointed. 25% of Scotlands population are dog owners and Speyside is ‘walking country’. We are local to the Highlands and previous customers. We also have our own tourism business but unfortunately wont be able to recommend the OPO to our doggie owner customers….disappointing 🐾😰

My wife and I popped in on our way home from the NC500. My wife had been wanting to visit for a while, but it has always been closed. This time, we had a lovely seat in the corner and were well looked after. The drinks were excellent. We ordered a bagel to share and a cake each. And while it was very delicious, our sum came to £33! For two drinks, two cakes and ONE sandwich. I understand that the cost of ingredients has gone up, but this seems over the top. Cafe time should never be unaffordable, but this is getting close. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and we'll probably be back, but when we have saved up!

A fantastic cafe, with magnificent cakes and desserts and lovely friendly staff. They also do very nice filled focaccia and bagels which you can take away for an instant packed lunch - very tasty if a bit pricey. The light lunches also looked lovely, but sadly we did not get to sample. Lunchtimes themselves are very busy and you may need to wait for a table.

Really super lunch!! I must admit, the menu was fancier than I wanted at the time, plus we had 2 fussy boys with us, but the first thing the lovely waiter said (without me asking) was that they could adapt anything to make it simple for the boys, so they had a smoked salmon & cream cheese bagel and a plain cream cheese bagel - both enjoyed immensely. I had the ciabatta with mozarella, pesto & I can’t remember what else but it was really lovely! My husband had focaccia with something lovely too! I loved mine but I would choose the focaccia next time as it was really special. We didn’t have time for dessert unfortunately but next time! Highly recommend and we’ll be back next August!
