Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Passing through today and dropped in for something to eat.
Yet again I have to say the food was top class. I ordered a simple meal of fried eggs bacon and hand cut chips
Bacon was cooked to perfection along with the eggs and also the hand cut chips were to die for.
Actually hand cut and that was clear to see.
For a small dessert I ordered a fresh scone with jam and fresh cream.
Yep first class again. Hot, fresh and a proper scone size wise.
The staff are excellent and whilst there a customers small children were given some marshmallows to take away free .Nice touch that and unusual in todays times.
If anyone rates this this poorly they must think McDonalds is a great place to eat. Enough said as the person cooking the food is a qualified Chef .And a good one.

Two of us had a lovely salad cheese sandwich here today , made on lovely bread , really delicious.Also had an americano with it , nice coffee served in a mug , also the sandwich was accompanied with a Greek salad . No crisps which I think are a cop out, and a lazy way of doing things. Will be back , I highly recommend this place, a lot of places could learn from them . Anna byrne

Just stopped here for a coffee one day, and was happy with the experience.
There is plenty of seating inside and a small number of tables and chairs outside.
The friendly welcome of the girl who served me left a good impression and motivated me to write the review. The coffee was pretty good too.
A good choice on the menu and Sunday roast at the weekend. I’ll try something more substantial next time, as I remember from previous visit, that they do great homemade chips!!🙂

Tried breakfast here with my son this morning as the roundwood pub that do great food was closed. The breakfast was so so bad simply inedible. It is hard to imagine the incompetence of the individual in the kitchen ( who was not wearing a mask) to send this type of stuff out to the customer. OMG AVOID THIS PLACE

So so bad..
Can't believe a place like this still exists .
Not very clean. One poor lad trying to clear tables and take orders and waiting so long for food . I ordered quiche disgusting one out of a box and tiny and a salad which mainly consisted of a huge plate of Coleslaw.
The tea was cold by the time the food arrived . The tea pot needed the bin lid didn't even close and the tea spilt all over the table .
We couldn't leave this place quick enough but had to wait ages to pay !

Only one table was being occupied when we arrived. However 3 others were full of dirty dishes. We had sausage rolls and salad. Neither were good and the salad was NOT fresh. The toilets were the major fault. Not clean and in poor condition. Food prepared in this environment is poor practice.

Real greasy spoon. Wait time was way too long. Waited 3/4 of an hour for mini breakfast. Which was very greasy and tasted like onions had been cooked in the pan beforehand Not very clean. Price was average no cheaper than anywhere else. Staff were very nice. But definitely wouldn't recommend

Just 1 other customer there when I called!! In the gents toilet-no loo paper, hand drier broken and no hot water in wash basin.I brought this to the attention of the lady in charge, who did not seem at all concerned, and did not apologies. Lunch very basic-served well burned toast, which just says it all. Not planning a return visit any time soon, and would NOT recommend.

Extremely popular and very affordable! Lovely local cafe, with all the obvious menu basics and a few delicious specials. Nicely obliging team who will always customised your order for you. I've never been disappointed for breakfast or lunch.

We just stumbled upon this bistro and it really was a find.
We were so cold and hungry having done a bracing walk on Djouce.
We got a lovely warm welcome and our food and coffee was just lovely. Our waitress was so friendly and efficient.
The place isn’t posh which makes it possible to go in with walking shoes.

Let’s start with the food. The quiche (pronounced keesh)was delicious,and the brownie was 100%outstanding! The walls were a bit stained but there were some nice pictures on the walls though. The male’s bathroom was a bit gloomy to say the least but apart from that it was rather lovely.
