An absolute delight - A hidden treasure. Food was homemade and freshly cooked. The taste was unbelievable. I would visit this place again and I would go as far as, I would make a detour to visit it. For the price I was expecting the food to be frozen and tasteless but how wrong was I?

Been meaning to try this little Cafe for Months, finally did on Sunday, Monster breakfast and mug of tea, your not kidding monster breakfast, absolutely gorgeous, Theresa's a lovely lady, all food cooked fresh no reheating, I went on a Sunday afternoon, expecting refusal, but no and all served with a smile, cuppa tea bang on, I now need to try those home made pies they look delicious, so it might be lunch Saturday and breakfast Sunday. See you at weekend Theresa. Thank you OK now it's the following Saturday, had the home made Meat pie, Mash ,mushy peas and Gravy, ooooh I'm in heaven, better than my mam's, hope she doesn't read this. That pie was sooo goooooood I took 4 home for my tea with cooking instructions from the lovely Theresa. Breakfast again tomorrow can't wait for the food and the delightful company, all I can say is it's a good job I don't live closer, I would never be out, keep it up Theresa, the food and the conversation.. Thank You Theresa xx
