Amazing afternoon tea for Mother’s Day :)

Super little place, great community facility, jammed when my group was there.

Nice varied menu and tasty food. The cafe attracts lots of dog walkers because of the location. Some dog owners could and should keep their pets under better control. Some outside seating and nice green-field location.Vegetarian options: There are several options on the menu. The Veggie toastie is very good. Not tried others.Parking: Large free car park adjacent to cafe and play area.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu.Wheelchair accessibility: Modern building all on one level with automatic doors.

Love this place and so do our two dogs. Whenever we walk near they pull to go in.

Wow, for a community cafe, this is very disappointing. If 3 young kids (youngest 3) with a childminder come in to shelter from the heavy rain, you don’t tend to kick them out. Show abit of compassion!! We all live in great Denham and will cost you more with us now avoiding your cafe, due to such rude staff. BE

Great location, and it’s clean, tidy and nicely decorated. Have been a few times and mostly it’s been a lovely experience. Only thing I’d say is although the staff are friendly, they lack attention to detail. For example, bringing food or drinks over and not picking up the used plates. Or spilling coffee on the saucers and not bringing m napkins to clean it up or even really apologising. Devil’s in the detail! Would be near perfect otherwise.Kid-friendliness: Fantastic play park in view of the cafe. What more could you ask for?

Pros:-Location.-Parking.-Great stop-off point if you're walking/cycling along the river.-Dog friendly.-Plenty of seating.-Good looking premises.-Really good coffee.Cons:-The food is expensive and relatively average.-Staff were a bit indifferent.-Menu is a bit boring.Comments:-Had to ask for extra bread to go with the £16.50 sharing Mezze Board we ordered. The meats and the hummus were great, but really skimpy on the bread and the oil.-We also ordered some Spanish style croquettes, which were lovely, but £6.50 for three normal sized croquettes and nothing else was frankly a bit of a rip-off.-I have no issues with ever going again, but only for coffee.Parking: Loads of space.
