Traditional B&B / cafe with a homely atmosphere. We went for coffee at about 1030 on Saturday and they were busy serving breakfasts (which looked and smelt good). Despite being busy we didn't have to wait too long for good coffee and delicious cake. Tables feel a little close together. Staff were polite and professional and friendly.
