So glad that we can finally got here after a long time just keep passing this place. The staffs are good and friendly. The food, coffee and cake were great. Our dog got free treats as well.
The location was great, easy to find and just by the main road. Big enough for car parking spaces. Plenty spaces outside to seat in.
Absolutely love to comeback again.
A real find. We called in by chance for lunch and were made to feel very welcome. There weren't any tables immediately available but they were happy to reserve the next table while we browsed the antique shop and then came and found us.
There was a wide range of dishes on the menu. I chose the Club Sandwich which was the best I've ever had. Both the other meals were also lovely.
Nice to find such a lovely cafe. We're looking to visiting again.
Well the café' is top notch, great bacon sarnie and fruit scone, prices very good, staff really pleasant and good to chat with. If you have a chance go there for drinks and food. Followed by the Antiques Emporium, also top notch, really nice stuff very collectable, pop in to this too.;
Great pub, the food was excellent and the staff very polite and helpful and the antiques shop attached is a great addition.
Although if you don’t like dogs or have an allergy to dogs it’s not the place for you as they are allowed in the dinning area.
Lovely and cosy Antique store always find something to buy. Also a fantastic cafe. Good size portions of food to eat. Polite staff, service is great
I've been a waitress for a long time, and can positively say that this was one of the most lovely dining experiences I've had.

Nice place and setting! Shame there’s a horrible housing estate popping up near by.
Beautiful location. A traditional Old pub turned into an Aladins Cave of Antiques with a delightful cafe. Lovely and welcoming staff. This is an amazing find. Will be definitely visiting again soon. Good luck to The Shoulder of Mutton in their New Business venture.
Top quality food, spoilt for choice on a variety of cakes and treats, from the most helpful/friendly staff!! What more could you want
Wonderful staff, and they have amazing baked goods. Also one of my favourite sandwiches was there! Brie, ham and cranberries on toasted bread
