Good coffee counter next to Penshurst station. Look inside the shop to see the whole place festooned with figurines (the collection seems to still be growing)....

Quick service. Great coffee and great seating too with outdoors seating as well as seating inside. Small cafe but large selection of LEGO pieces on display.

Pop in out of this LEGO cave. Take with you a great coffee a smile. Generally serving only coffee. Open everyday. Right next to the station.

If you want seafood you have to come here. Friendly family shop. You won't find better quality or service.
