It was so good to see that this fabulous little place on Forrest Road has survived the pandemic and is as good as ever. The fact that we visited three times in...

"Delicious food. Great service. The menu is limited, but you won't be disappointed. I will definitely return. Critical point: It can get loud! The space is small, so with two large parties (6 8) on a Friday night, there was a lot of shouting. The staff apologized without a comment from us. It's a place to be merry! But if you want a chill dinner experience, maybe try a weekday or an earlier time before the olds get themselves sloshed."

"Visited this cafe just by chance looking for somewhere for a warm drink to get out of the rain with our dog 'The Bear '. Was welcomed in and guided to a table downstairs. So t be fooled with the view from outside. There 's loads of space indoors. Brilliant service and made such a fuss of our choccy Lab. Ordered 2 teas and a banana split. Wow what a desert, big enough for the two of us and a jar of sausage bits for The Bear... would defo recommend.end and will return next tome we are in the area... Well.done team.."

"Not much vegetarian options. The pasta was very good. Sauce was lovely. Pizza base was average. Falafel was tasty but tiny. The dip was very bad. The potato starter was ok. The girl who served us was very sweet. The place was not crowded so it was quite relaxing. I might go back."

"Lovely little cafe in the post office, what a great idea! Staff were really helpful, the full English consisted of 2 eggs, 2 sausages, 3 bacon, black pudding, mushrooms, beans, tomato, toast and some rocket. Top notch. Made even better with the government's 50% for Eat out to help out."

"Everything was even better than last time we felt desserts were brought to a while different level!, this restaurant is a little gem and with the set menu it's become a really good value for money alternative. Of course it's not cheap but it's a very doable treat!"

"This caffe was absolutely smashed! 2 young girls who serve were very pleasant and very friendly to me and my father, eating was practically perfect! it is a shame that I am 300 miles away so that my return would be unlikely, but I would seriously recommend this caffe to everyone and absolutely all! Many thanks for the service xx"

"I ordered an 18th birthday cake, the giant cupcake with specific instructions on the decoration. I collected the cake and was overwhelmed with complete disappointment at staring at the ugliest cake I've ever seen. It was expensive and the idea was that it would be special, a centrepiece. Clearly, the person making the cake has no artistic ability, it was ugly, my instructions were not followed, it was hard to understand the thinking behind producing a giant cupcake in shades of beige that I can only describe as resembling a large turd. I definitely would not recommend spending money on the giant cupcakes for special occasions, a cheap shop brought cake is a much safer and less expensive option. I did my best to remove the ugly brown biscuits plonked on top of the cake which I had requested were not added but it still looked awful, a few brown chocolates placed on a beige buttercream, with cream writing on the cake base that was so faint, it wasn't worth making the effort of putting it there. Unbelievably bad for the price."
