The Village Coffee House in East Lothian

Lovely food and scones were a treat. It was a bit of a squeeze as one of our party was in a wheelchair but the staff were very helpful moving tables around to make room.

We popped in for coffee and a snack before golf, and we certainly weren’t disappointed. Great staff, excellent coffee, superb sandwiches, and all in such a clean and well managed establishment.

Waffle was excellent but thats where it ended. Waitress had a proper attitude, apple pie was almost stone cold, custard came in a micro pot and even though they knew we were unhappy made us pay for the pleasure of a ruined visit. Wont be going back.

Have been here several times for coffee, cake and lunches. The soups are gluten free and there is always GF bread to go along with it. The GF toasted sandwiches, as are all the items on the menu, freshly made. My other half loves the black pudding rolls, the black pudding comes from a local butcher. The dog loves the black pudding too, dogs are very welcome. The choice of teas is amazing, lovely loose leaf teas in a big pot. There is always a GF cake on offer.

Unassuming little care, old fashioned inside, oil tablecloths, pine farmhouse chairs. The food we were assured is all home made. 3 soup choices & enough variation on the menu to suit everyone. Cakes are very good. The bread is fab. The chowder soup excellent- you won’t have room for a main ! Prices are reasonable and the owners are very nice. Don’t drive past to get a better cafe in this village as there isn’t one

This really is one of the very few places that I HAVE NOTHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT. The village coffee shop is I have to be honest, somewhere I had not tried until recently. But boy am I glad we did. I can honestly say that, when going out for lunch, would poss look at bar lunches in Gullane or North Berwick, but after 2 great visits to the village coffee shop, when going out for lunch we will be heading there. Even if going for coffee etc will be first choice. The couple running the coffee shop could not be more down to earth, and friendly, oh and they are also fantastic with kids too. We both times sat down to a clean table, were attended to quickly. After ordering told what was cooked fresh, so would be slightly longer (not a problem). Was not to much time to wait. And wow.. The portions were huge, especially when compared to the v reasonable prices. The staff were also willing to adapt the menu to suit. Food was not only served piping hot and mouth watering delicious. But was served with a genuinely friendly, fun couple running the place. Again staff were amazing with kids. So I know I've went on a bit, but to summarise down to earth, gen friendly couple, running the best place to have breakfast, brunch def lunch, poss dinner in Gullane and surround. Very very tasty food, huge portions, great prices, decent coffee etc, lovely cakes, ice cream for after. Family friendly, amazing with kids and so clean. Even the bathroom goes above and beyond. If you are in or near Gullane and you want lunch Forget the rest, head to the Village coffee shop, I will be def cont too

Popped in whilst travelling along the coast. Hidden little gem, freshly cooked food and lovely friendly atmosphere.

was just driving by and saw this coffee shop and what a find it was. popped in for a cuppa and was served best cup of tea (loose tea in a pot)the way it should be. decided to have some lunch and ordered lasagne which was beautifully cooked and home made. wife had Maccy cheese which she enjoyed too!. definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area!

Visited on a very sunny day after a lovely walk on the beach. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food made to order and very tasty. My chicken and prawn sandwich had so much filling I needed a knife and fork to eat it :). Very reasonably priced. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend

I have been going there for many years and am delighted, I travel from North Berwick to go there so highly do I rate them, all food is freshly made and first rate, cannot recommend highly enough.

Like stepping into your own living room with a complete family feel. Nothing too much trouble. An excellent choice of breakfast, home made soup and desserts. Scones are amazing. Let Grace, Charliie and David spoil you.

My husband and myself always make for this little place to eat at the end of a beach day in lovely Gullane. An excellent menu, reasonable prices, comfortable surroundings and service with a smile. And dogs welcome too! Keep up the good work because it really is much appreciated. Oh, and enjoy the rosé.......you deserve it! 😉

Small but very well cared for. We had a late lunch, cater for those like me who are GF. Other half enjoyed the Broccoli and Stilton, soup of the day (GF), and said it was delicious. I had a GF toastie, freshly prepared with a nice side salad. All the food is freshly prepared for you so not a “fast food” place but somewhere to enjoy freshly prepared food by a couple who take pride in what they do. First time here but we will be back soon and will be regulars once we move to Gullane. Thank you both very much it was lovely that you chatted with us and made us feel most welcome.

The best Restaurant in East Lothian bar none, everything homemade to perfection and great staff. Graham Cruickshank

Called in for coffee/tea/cake on 18/3 with family. Good friendly service and nice cakes/savouries. The gentleman who served us was very helpful and keen to please.

Although it is a coffee house they do an excellent pot of tea ! The young lady even told us where we could buy it in North Berwick - which we did straight away ! thank you ! The cakes are pretty good too !

My first time at the village coffee house 🏘️ I ordered a hot chocolate 🍫 with mashmollws & cream. Baked potato 🥔salad 🥗 with it so I would highly recommend it to ploeple so I give you an 10 out of 10

We passed by chance and liked the look so popped in, glad we did.

Best scones we tasted in Scotland plus an amazing chocolate tart. Helpful service and a delightful environment.

Visited while on holiday with my wife...had coffee and scones. Coffee was poor and scones were awful. Prices for what we had were disgraceful. Old boxes and miscellaneous junk stacked overhead. Will not return.

An excellent break for a cup of tea and a bite to eat after walking on the beach. Friendly service and freshly prepared home cooking. The soup with bread was very tasty and just what I needed!

This is more than a coffee shop. We had an excellent lunch here; a freshly made, well proportioned smoked salmon salad. The service was personal and friendly.

The Village Coffee House is an absolute delight of a little family run coffee shop. The husband and wife owners are incredibly attentive and pleasant people. The food though simple is done to very very well and if you ever find yourself wanting a lil stop off for a meal or quick bite to eat, you’d find it hard to better this little gem of a establishment.

Called in after watching the first round of the Scottish Golf Open at Gullane.

Popped in for lunch yesterday (8 July) with my Aussie cousins. What a lovely wee coffee shop! Even though it was extremely busy the staff were very pleasant, cheerful and attentive. And the food, wow! I had the quarter pounder with bacon, brie and cranberry - beautifully presented with salad and fries and absolutely delicious. I sampled the curry and it was spot on too. I'm reliably informed the lasagne and toastie were fabulous but no one was willing to relenquish as much as a bite! Desserts looked wonderful but will have to try next time as I couldnt have eaten amother bite. Excellent coffee, lots of tea choices and plenty of soft drink options. Looking forward to my next visit and will definately be highly recommending to my friends.

Large sign outside advertising food to be taken away, exactly what we were looking for. Went in to be rudely told that take away toasters would take 20 minutes to make. You would think by the way they reacted we had asked the staff to cook their own children.

Friendly wee stop off for a nice cup of coffee. Traditional menu with tasty home baked cakes and hadn't come across mumbled eggs before!. Seats 24 handy on main st.

Had a great breakfast here good service and the food choice was excellent. Served piping hot and nothing was too much bother for the people who run it. Definitely worth a visit

We came through Gullane on our walking tour. Here we had the best scones of our whole trip. The waitress was helpful, friendly and chatty. We enjoyed making the personal contact.

Breakfast was superb staff were very friendly and our dog was made most welcome nice atmosphere and will certainly return

Stopped for quick coffee and morning roll, good service and fine coffee and sausages. Visit and keep local alive.

Called in on chance on our way back from Edinburgh, the two ladies who own the cafe made us very welcome. We were only going to have coffee but ended up with a black pudding and egg roll, and a flat sausage roll ( brilliant...

Si estás buscando un hogar lejos de casa de bienvenida con comida tradicional y luego la Tienda de Pueblo café en Gullane reune los requisitos. Deliciosos desayunos, almuerzos, tartas y bollos. Y risas y charla en abundancia.

HIGHLY RECOMMEMDED, GREAT FOOD, GREAT VALUE

Stopped in here on a drive around the coast, I had read online this was the best place to go for a scone in the East, and on my quest for the best scone in Scotland this place didn't dissapoint! The scone was homemade and warm and the staff were very attentive. The coffee here is also very good!

Stopped off for lunch, waited over 30 mins for food to arrive. Toasties were barely edible and forgot one of the fillings. Soup was like puréed baby food and bland! Overpriced for what we had and staff aprons were dirty!!!

We stopped in Gullane for a much needed coffee before a game of golf. We lived in Gullane some years ago and regularly return for visits to friends and therefore always expect high standards of the village amenities. All 3 of us were extremely disappointed and we agreed, the coffee was probably the worst we'd ever had! We should have commented at the time but were in a rush!We should also comment that other customers seemed to be enjoying food. But to be called 'The Village Coffee House' should bring expectations of a very good cup of coffee! A final comment is that the aprons of staff were dirty - rather disappointing!

Nothing much to say about this place other than you can get a basic lunch at a fair price.No horror stories, but nothing excels and the menu is very standard. Premises are tired and the entire enterprise would benefit from a wholesale overhaul to bring it in line with 21st century expectations.Sorry, but that's my honest impression....

Hmm what to say... Old flowers in vases with dirty water. Feels in need of a face lift. Reasonably welcoming staff however very defensive if challenging re time to wait for food. Food average when did arrive. Sadly wouldn't recommend.

We really enjoyed our breakfast and it was great to bring the dog in with us. Nice staff and a great amount of food for £7.An unexpected little gem. We will definitely be back- just what you want after a walk on the beach.

Popped in for lunch after a lovely walk on the beach with the Dog and could see it wasn't the usual people serving here, but the welcome was very warm and friendly. There was a level of flexibility on the size of coffee's they served - we wanted large - so they gave us them in mugs - excellent. My wife had a piece of cake which she said was lovely, and I had a toastie that was delicious with a good full filling, served with what looked like old fashioned crisps and a very nice fresh salad, and then to finish it off the waiter gave us a piece of homemade shortbread which melted in your mouth.

Visited yesterday by chance but good for us, very friendly staff, nice sandwiches well filled and good coffee.

We made a special detour given the wonderful food last time but alas it is under new management. We waited 35 mins for a soup combo and a burger. Burger was awful, toastie was good but carrot and coriander soup a disaster. Not a hint of coriander, no seasoning and tasted like it had been burnt. We asked the waitress to remove it and on reaching the kitchen, all the cafe could hear was "what's wrong with it?" A woman then appeared at our table requesting an explanation and given one, she replied, "we always under season our food. You may think it's burnt but it's not" and stomped off!! We were not charged for the soup but were asked if we had enjoyed our experience? We did not appreciate their attitude and would not recommend it to anyone.

First visit to this cafe now under new management.What a lovely surprise - very friendly service and the best scones ever - home baked ,light, warm. Coffee was really nice and pleased to say, piping hot. Meals all looked generous - no skimping here. Will definitely be back.

Not very welcoming or able to cater for vegan party member however there was soya milk.Certainly under different management from last visit.

I've eaten here a couple of times when we've been down in the area walking on the nearby beach. The food is of good quality and substantial. It's a quaint little place but one I'd recommend if you're feeling hungry and need something to keep you going. In fact it may even be the same cafe that my parents left me in as a baby. They forgot I was there and drove off before getting a distance up the road and realising that I was missing!

Mmmm not sure what to make of this place now!! It's under new and I'm afraid there needs to be some changes. First impression going in, I think the table behind the door needs to go, quality not quantity is needed here. The other tables I feel could be enough for the staff here to handle and that table away would allow better access for the disabled. The tea was great as it is real tea not bagged tea. My friend had a toastie which looked good but she said she'd had better. I had a black pudding roll and have to say it was really good. The black pudding was beautiful so don't change supplier there. I ask had a bit carrot cake, although it was good you really can't beat homemade as with it being a small village coffee shop you would expect there to be homemade cakes, tray bake etc. The staff were nice and friendly although I feel a uniform would be better ie tee-shirt. It would give the place a more personal touch. Maybe brighten up the table covers too as although the place is quirky it is a pretty dull coffee shop. Maybe put your own stamp on it. These are only small points and it wouldn't stop me returning again. You guys are just starting out and finding your feet. But with some little changes, a big impact could be made. Best of Luck with your new venture.

We popped in after a walk on Gullane bents on Sunday afternoon. There seemed to be a lot of emphasis on there being new management in place so one would expect to be left with a good impression but unfortunately we weren't. On using the WC facilities prior to eating there was a grubby, soggy towel for patrons to use..it looked as if it had been there for days...not a good sign in a food outlet. We were then served in dribs and drabs with stewed warm tea together with an array of shop bought cakes and scones. When we asked for water to top up the tea , it came in a small milk jug...oh dear.. Apparently it had been a busy day but we were not alone in thinking things could improve as one of the two staff on duty was held up for ages with other patrons making a complaint but also advising on how to improve things. Would I visit again ? Maybe but then maybe not....Management needs to up its game and quick!.

Come here regularly, and apparently a recent change of management. Didn't think the service was up to scratch, staff forgot part of our order, and service was careless. Seemed a bit chaotic for such a small café

My wife and I visited The Village Coffee House which is under new management for breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed it. Freshly made scrambled eggs, perfectly cooked bacon - real leaf tea and the personal attention of Grace and her family made for a very pleasant experience. No room left to sample the freshly baked scones which were just coming out of the oven as we arrived. Will be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal The Village Coffee House last week. We had a voucher and only found out when we arrived that new owners had taken over only the week before and that they hadn't been paid by the previous owner for the cost of our voucher and we're actually providing our meal for nothing. However they were very welcoming and the food was delicious, freshly cooked, big portions and beautifully presented. This is a family business and we're sure they'll do well because they provide really good food at reasonable prices, give excellent service and are eager to please. We wish them every success and will definitely go back there.

We were travelling up from Berwick upon Tweed and needed a bite to eat. We popped into Gullane as we had heard it was a pleasant place and it really is. We dropped into this wee café and had a quick bite to eat and some tea. When I say tea, I mean REAL tea, not made with tea bags. This was quality stuff and was served with a strainer and warm milk. Delicious! Our hot rolls and toasties were freshly made, piping hot and extremely tasty. Good prices and nice, friendly staff. This place is worth a visit if you're passing through.

Two of us stopped here for a coffee, and a scone - and it was the nicest scone I have tasted in years. Fresh, warm, and full of fruit. Good coffee too. We discovered it was the first day for new owners, and I wish them every success. They really deserve to do well.

I tried to book a table for Sunday at this establishment in person last week. Whilst initially he was quite pleasant and said there wouldn't be a problem with a booking for two at 12 noon, his attitude totally changed when I mentioned the voucher. I was then told he was completely full on Sunday. Apparently although the voucher still had over a week to go before its expiry date there is also a booking date which had passed. I tried to explain I had been down south due to the death of my mother but he was having none of it. Not a very nice experience.

Gavin's A disgusting man shouting at staff after being left alone with a busy cafe he comes wondering in shouting the odds.Fantastic food and service from Grace food was amazing second to none. If gavin wasn't there would make a big differance as he alone pulles the village coffee house down

My wife and I visited this coffee shop for a 2 course lunch after purchasing an ziti son lunch voucher. The coffee shop is small and quirky and quite dated internal furnishings.We were informed that it was soup or soup to start..! So soup it was. The main course selection we chose was gammon steak and ribeye steak. So soup arrived and it looked like a bowl of boiled water with diced potato and sliced leeks... The chunky veg was stillCrunchy and this was not nice.!The main courses were considerably better than the starter but I was very disappointed as my rib eye steak was definitely a piece of frying steak.!Sadly I can't find much to comment on further and I can't recommend this as a place to eat.. Ps we genuinely are not fussy eaters or posh but simply expected better food for a coffee shop located in Gullane.

We (Husband and I) spent a couple of pleasant hours in Gullane today (Friday). The Coffee House is an eclectic mix of furnishings with approx 8 tables and seems to be very popular not only with locals, but passing traffic. The "infamous" Gavin, chef and owner is not as intimidating and loud as was suggested by other reviewers and I found him to be efficient and quite endearing. The service by Gavin and his one Waitress was great which makes me wonder what some of the other reviewers were on about. It is small so of course you are going to hear the phone calls.We both had excellent home-made Potato & Leek soup (very large portion), followed by the Rib-eye Steak (first time I haven't been asked how I would like my steak cooked) and although mine was cooked a bit more than I would have liked, but I did enjoy it and my other half ate what I couldn't and thoroughly enjoyed it. The mixed salad that accompanied it was really good and made such a difference from the usual mixed greens plonked on your plate, it was also served with a tasty dressing. Coffee was a pleasant surprise, really good. Next time will save a bit of room for the gorgeous looking desserts. One thing that was a bit distracting, a local lady arrived with her dog (we love animals), she proceded to have a running conversation with her poodle as though it were a person.

Second visit to this establishment. Good home cooked food, if anything, the portions are too generous. Very friendly staff. A good choice for lunch but book in advance as it is very busy which shows it's good!

This is just an ordinary little café but the food is really good. I visited it with my wife and two grandchildren who are fussy to put it mildly. My wife had leek and potato soup and the children had rolls filled with ham or bacon. All of them were happy. I chose a roll and of the various possible fillings picked haggis and bacon. It was absolutely delicious. Even if you think you do not like haggis try this and you will be converted. And what is more it only cost £2.75.If you want a satisfying lunch and you are in the area do visit.

Great location - very good lunch and first class service. Well worth a visit for a coffee or a snack/lunch.

Dropped in here gasping for drinks after a long hot drive and a dearth of options en route. Had a perfect cream tea (whipped cream rather than clotted, mind, but more than made up for by an exquisite scone). Friendly service and excellent value.

We had a decent 2 course meal...I'm but nothing to race about. The service by the 2 ladies was excellent though. They obviously work hard. Both friendly and credit to the cafe...

We cycled a few miles into Gullane on a blustery morning and called in here for refreshment. Very friendly staff, good coffee, good bacon butty and shortbread - and wifi!

Stopped in for a quick cup of tea as we passed through Gullane. The "home made" scones caught our eye, so we ordered tea for two with accompanying scones, fruit please. We were advised they were out of cream which was not ideal but okay. The scones arrived accompanied by butter and jam.The scones were very dry and the butter tasted and looked more like cheap spread. They were very disappointing. Jam was nice.The lady serving us was very polite and friendly unlike the gentleman who was shouting on the phone arranging some sort of holiday let, arranging furniture movements.Tea was nice but we will not return.

Had a voucher for 2 courses and coffee but were a bit disappointed. The tomato soup was obviously out a tin and the chicken goujons were a bit overdone, but a huge plateful. 2 waitresses had difficulty dealing with only 6 tables. (Not well trained even in the basics)Service a bit slow too. .Wouldn't go back

This was our first visit to The Village Coffee House in Gullane and were very impressed with our meal. We had two courses - Spanish Tomato Soup. Rib Eye steak Ciabatto followed by Latte Coffee and all were delicious. The prices are very reasonable and the restaurant really cosy on a bitterly cold day. The owner and waitress were very friendly and anxious to please. We will definitely go back to this restaurant.

We popped in here on Sunday morning for a cup of coffee after exploring the local area. Whilst the coffee was good ... hot and tasty, overhearing the owner/manager as he "trained" his new staff in a belittling manner was not conducive to a great atmosphere.

Had the pleasure of popping into this hidden gem at the weekend and had a wonderful lunch. Started off with home made Spanish tomato soup followed by chicken goujons with chips and salad and my wife had soup with eggs benedict, chips and salad and all I can say that not only was it a plateful and a half, but totally delicious. You really get a taste of home here and I would certainly recommend popping in for a spot of lunch. Leave a wee half hour spare for a lovely walk along the seafront afterwards. The girls helping out are really nice and pleasant and complement the Coffee House.

Very pleasant and attentive staff. Good wholesome soup and sandwiches followed by coffee and cake all for £20. Our first visit and we would return.

The coffee is to die for! The breakfasts are very good and its relaxed and very friendly. Good value!

The staff were very welcoming, we had the two varieties of soup on offer which were excellent. My first Scotch pie, very good, and excellent coffee too. The hot chocolate was spectacular!

Popped in for a coffee whilst on holiday in the area but after seeing the menu we stayed for lunch. Simple home cooking done well. Friendly and welcoming - highly recommended.

Went for lunch and whilst waiting for a menu, could see the young waitress in the kitchen looking at her mobile phone. Eventually, she came with this (not very friendly attitude) and we ordered sandwiches which took over half an hour to arrive. This waitress didn't come back to ask if everything was ok or ask if we wanted anything else when we finished but she seemed to have time to check her phone many times whilst in the kitchen! Have been there before when the man (the owner) has been there and always received fast, friendly service. What a difference when he is not there.

Nice village tea (coffee) rooms. A good example of what was more typical in years gone by. We shared a pot of tea; hard to go wrong but nevertheless after our coastal walk from Aberlady it was welcome and refreshing. Evelyn particularly enjoyed her fruit scone; so much so she ordered another! A good selection of eats including light meals. Reasonably priced. Judging by some of the memorabilia on the walls they are frequented by golf pros playing the numerous courses around this area. Friendly chatty ladies behind, or more accurately next to, the counter without being obtrusive. I'm not 100% sure but this might be the only establishment of its sort in Gullane. But if you're up that way and needing a cuppa, you won't go wrong.

Had a spot of lunch in here, the food was nice. We had the homemade soup and a sandwich for less than £6 both was spot on. Very friendly staff. The likes of Graeme McDowell have eaten here when the open was on. If your passing worth a stop off

Lovely food and coffees/cakes. Popped in before a game of golf.Only thing would say is owner should take his phone calls away from the customers in the cafe Seemed to berating someone on the phone about a member of staff being absent, a bit embarrassing really.

Visited the village coffee shop yesterday for a small meeting, had to endure listening to the owner on the mobile phone speaking very loudly about his personal life, found this extremely rude and unprofessional . Coffee was goodMember off staff very niceWill we have another meeting there.Unlikely .

The coffee house almost sits on a bend as you drive into Gullane so keep a eye open for it, good old fashion place to have a coffee real friendly owner.

Locateed on the way into Gullane from Aberlady. This place serves a reasonably priced array of cafe treats. Excellent staff who are very attentive. Very small and you need to be quick or lucky to get a seat. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick bite to eat without too much fuss.

This was my third visit and I was not disappointed. The leek and potato soup was excellent as was the ham and cheese toasty which followed. The portions are so generous that I had no room left for even a small slice of the delicious looking cakes but because I was not driving I had a couple of glasses of Ernie Els wine with my meal which rounded it off nicely.

Arrived at the Village Coffee House today for some lunch. Me and my gran both ordered an all day breakfast with teas. The teas were lovely and came with a tea strainer and tea leaves, which is an experience I've never had. The cooked breakfasts were lovely and cooked to a high standard although I was not fully satisfied with the service, which was slow. The toast to accompany the breakfast was not provided till we were nearly finished our fried breakfast. The cafe is a little overpriced. But overall I enjoyed it.

The first time we met Gavin (the owner) was on the street, he stood outside his little coffee shop, in a pink chef suit. We were looking for another restaurant at that time, Gavin overheard our conversation and, imprompted, pointed to us where the place was. Nice guy! we thought and moved on. Few mintutes later, we returned to his shop, the other shop was not open at that time so we decided to try this "nice guy"'s shop, or maybe we were impressed by his pink chef suit - blends well with the style of his coffee shop. I'm not going to share with you the details of what we ordered and experienced in Gavin's shop that day and the next following days, you can find those in the othet review. But "yes", we kept returning till we left, you should go and try yourself. A few thing to highlight: 1)Gavin is a real chef, you can order real food like ribeye steak and spanish tomato soup for lunch in his coffee shop and they are nice; 2)Gavin is a real golfer, he loves the game tons and he loves life more. He operates the little coffee shop and also organises golf tournament to raise funds for children cancer for the region.A man is loved not because of how tall he is but how often how he bends backward to teach, to care and to help. Gavin is a tough guy, but a really lovable one, he made Gullane a very special place for us! Thanks, Gavin!Zachary, Carol and "PING" :)

Dropped in for a coffee and cake stop on a cycle tour. Coffee is excellent and the lemon cake was fabulous. The welcome was warm and friendly with conversations across tables and I didn't feel like a stranger. Perfect.

A selection of homemade soups served with loads of bread and butter. A good selection of main courses and desserts, including a handful of daily specials, and a big selection of home baking. The quality is excellent in all departments and the servings are big. The service was first class and the surroundings are very pleasant (not a hint of golf in evidence). I'll be back.

Enjoyed a lovely tuna mayonnaise sandwich with a large side salad and crisps, so fresh and delicious. I have visited this cafe before and have always been very happy with both the food and friendly, efficient service. The portions are very substantial and may be too large for some! I would never complain though that my plate was too full!! The spicy meatballs with rice and salad is really tasty but make sure you're hungry! The prices are very reasonable too.

We called in last Sunday afternoon. Within ten minutes we were served with our tea and coffee, but it took thirty minutes to serve us two sconesThere were a total of ten in the little coffee shop, on a Sunday after 2pm, two people were in the kitchen and one young girl serving, very polite waitress but very slow in the kitchen.There is an Italian coffee shop next door, think we will try next door next time.

Our first time at this establishment but wow, the food was just terrific - and the service too.The portions are plentiful and the prices represent extremely good value for money.... everything is freshly prepared and you can really taste the a difference.It might have been our first time, but we'll definitely be back.10/10

The advertising board on the opposite side of the road attracts incoming motorists' attention. Free Car parking is available on the roadside. The Coffee Shop is small but the owner and staff offer a warm welcome, and the service is swift. Our soup and pie was excellent, as were the drinks. This small establishment gets a big, enthusiastic recommendation from this household.

Have stopped here for lunch with friends on several occasions and am never disappointed. Excellent quality, plenty of choice and massive portions. Many of my friends order small portions to allow room for the delicious cakes. Always worth a visit.

...but none the worse for that. Very nice food, no portion control. Old fashioned values in an old fashioned enviroment. The Mumbled Eggs were excellent. Reasonably priced.

We stopped here for a bite of lunch en-route to a gourmet weekend at the Greywalls Hotel. We had the simply superb Leek and Tattie soup followed by a Ribeye steak that wasn't bettered by anything Mr Roux had to offer. Two courses for £8.95? Fantastic.
