Lovely café. Food was delish ( we had cake) service was quick and welcoming. Our dogs were also allowed into the café which was great. I would recommend coming here if you wanted a quick bite to eat or drink. I also had to take some of my cake home so they provided a box for me to do this. Nice touch.

Waiting by the sign at the entrance for a table to come free, but was told to leave because we were 'blocking a fire exit'. In the event of a fire, we'd not be standing there preventing anyone from leaving, we'd be first out! Whereas that sign could be a real problem. Just give an honest reason.

Enjoyed the mushrooms on toast, but would have preferred field mushrooms as the shitaki type were a little chewy. Nice chap

Food that was full of flavour and huge portion too. Stopped here on our way back to sussex and was so pleased we did. The staff were friendly and catered to people's needs. If I'm ever passing again I will be sure to go back.

Overpriced and not nice food - maybe we were unlucky with the bacon rolls - bacon was fatty yet still as tough as old boots. Mentioned it to one of the staff and all we got was "sorry about that" then they scampered off sharpish.That said, it was very busy with lots of reserved tables.We won't be back...
