Wonderful food and very pleasant staff
Our first time popping in and really enjoyed it! The staff were all lovely and the interior felt cosy. The food was seasoned and cooked perfectly, and everything came in good time. There's a nice community feel to the cafe and you can see why it's such a staple.
Great Food Served on Every Visit along with Friendly Happy Staff in the Cafe. So I Booked a Buffet for my Birthday Party and wasn't disappointed. It's the only Party I've had where guests commented on how Great the Buffet was for Variety, Quality and Taste. i would Deffinately Recommend and Book Again. Amazing X Thank You X
Not a great deal of parking but the food, coffee and service was first class. The outside seating area can be nice ( if the weather is nice) and costs are very reasonable.
We just came across this on the way home from a day out. It's a lovely little village cafe (hence the name I suppose) and the staff were all nice. The food was gorgeous and were good sized portions. Would definatley go back again
I love this cafe its our local, atmosphere is lovely everyone has a natter even when they don't know you, this cafe is where all the bikers meet up and it's great to see all different bikes from mope heads to duccattis to triumphs. Food is lovely and can be a little expensive but that's a given with it being so close to the beach. Staff are friendly. If you fancy a quick cuppa on your travels then definitely try here you won't be disappointed
Enjoyed our time here, staff were helpful and welcoming. Excellent value.
Amazing food and even better service. The food is fresh and delicious and both waiters we had were absolutely lovely.
