It’s a lovely little café, easily chosen as it was the only one open at 10.30 on a Thursday morning! We had fantastic blueberry muffins and banana cake, so good they have to be home made, as well as freshly squeezed orange juice. There’s a nice atmosphere (would benefit from some music though, in my opinion). For some reason, there was no milk available for coffee - so not quite 5 stars for me.

Cute little shop. The sweet potato loaf was very light and just the right amount of sweetness.
