First time here today and we stopped in and had breakfast. Was greeted by the lovely owners and really felt welcome. Got the food and it was lovely. No grease in sight for a fried breakfast. This is now my local and will be using from now on. My Mrs always leaves her bacon as it's always too crispy and burnt. Here was perfect.

When I visited 2 years ago the vegan menu was good and the food served was incredible. We visited this morning and ordered the vegan full trough, unfortunately they didn't have most of the vegan items on the menu and it was very underwhelming. It was more like a quarter trough than a full trough. They split one sausage between the two of us and offered extra vegan bacon instead. No hash browns, no vegan black pudding, not many mushrooms, half a tomato. The coffee was really good though. I had a flat white with oat milk and it was delicious. I would recommend that vegans either avoid this café, or visit more frequently so they have to keep their vegan items stocked! It cost me £28.30 for two breakfasts and two coffees. I would definitely come back for coffee, but would be hesitant to order food again.

Absolutely fantastic cafe. The staff are so friendly and make you feel really welcome. The place feels really cosy and is really nicely decorated. Breakfast Is amazing and of really good quality and tasted amazing. I also had a biscoff milkshake which was extremely tasty. The prices are also reasonable at the water Trough which is good as these days dining out can be expensive. Definitely will be a place we will keep visiting 😀

A large group of us on holiday had breakfast/brunch here on a Sunday morning back in June. The staff were very accommodating and allowed us to mill around for a good few hours and helped us look after a toddler. The food was very reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. I recommend the eggs Benedict. The decor is fab too. All the staff were very friendly and clearly care about their customers and maintaining their fantastic business. We live so far away in Newcastle unfortunately or I’d be there there every week.

Not only that, I had a dilemma with my bike and they offered to look after it overnight for me, but in the end sorted a taxi for me instead. They were so kind. Definitely a place to stop for a coffee or food. Will be back!

Stopped for lunch after visiting a nearby antiques centre. I had the jacket potato with shredded beef chilli. The accompanying cole slaw was very nice. The gravy from the chilli overflowed so the rest of the salad garnish came with the gravy - which was a bit odd. The shredded beef chilli was not too bad - but a bit bland. The service was prompt but it took quite a while for the potato to arrived. The restaurant was clean and the staff friendly and welcoming. Maybe there was a problem with jacket potatoes when I visited. I’d probably try something else if I visited again.

Been looking forward to visiting for ages, managed to luckily grab a table but would advise booking if visiting on the weekend. Service was excellent, staff are very knowledgeable about the cordial range and happy to dish out tasters of their entire range. A special mention to the youngest waitress who was attentive and gracious when our order was slightly delayed, a wonderful addition to the cafe! I'm gluten intolerant and the staff were knowledgeable about their menu and there's GF bread to swap out for the toasties and sandwiches, I was informed that there is gluten free pancakes too, although I didn't try these. We topped up our supply of cordials and hope to be back soon.
