Absolutely delicious feast and despite it being lunchtime on a sunny weekend day, and only 10 mins from the packed tourist traps at the bottom of the Gorge, it wasn’t too busy at all. Absolutely hidden gem! Very friendly and helpful staff. Super tasty home-baked treats. The salads were all varied and really flavoursome.

A bit slow but polite service. Terrace is peaceful, food is generally good. Inside is not great chairs and tables are small and at least is quiet.

Best cooked breakfast around. We used to visit another main Street café but this exceeds them in every way. The cafe is quaint and offers great service with a cosy atmosphere. Have visited on quite a few occasions and am now a regular.
