Visited a way back last year, in the midst of lockdown. We sat in the little outdoor beer garden which was super cute and acted as a wee suntrap. I ordered the coronation chicken salad and I swear!! It was one of the best things I've ever tried (to the point where I now make something similar a couple of times a week at home). The staff were lovely and it was inexpensive. It's a little hidden gem.

A very cosy and intimate cafe tucked inside a lane on South Street. Visited on a rainy day for hot chocolate and scones, both were top notch!

Gorgeous little cafe just off the main road. Price to quality ratio is great, worth a trip. I had London fog with oat milk and it was delicious. The cakes and sweet treats looked good too!

Small but very mighty! Great service, food and presentation! The best scones I’ve ever had and if you are brining your fury friend he will also get a snack!

This place is such a gem! The service was amazing, staff were super accommodating and so kind to my pup, brought out a treat and water. The courtyard is probably the best place in town on a sunny day, and the inside was cozy and well decorated. Had the ciabatta and was 10/10, the strawberry tea was a highlight. Would definitely come here again!!
