Best scones and service in Durham. A real treat for visitors and regulars. Ideally located on the walkway up to the Cathedral. Cosy and welcoming on the inside. Highly recommend for morning and afternoon tea!

Lovely little quaint cafe in the heart of Durham City UK. Very friendly and attentive staff. Lovely food and coffee. Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting the city. 4 stars given as, I would recommend that the senior member of staff should not get tied up behind the counter as they should be able to interact with the customers front of house.

This little coffee shop rocks. The girls just make scones, cakes, full-English brekky, panini's & good coffee - all day. No lounge music, no pretensions, just real food. Especially good scones

Cosy little cafe which we stopped in for lunch. Had their 2 person afternoon tea which was great value and huge, we couldn't finish it between 3 people! Service took a little while but the staff are really friendly and the good was good. One thing to note is that it's cash only.

Lovely, small independent cafe. Food was very reasonable and tasty, the reasonably quick and friendly. One of the few places in Durham you can sit outside to eat lunch next to the river. Well worth a visit.

Outstandingly good in my experience - the full English breakfast is a great deal. Also the coffee is good along with the significant portion sizes with the cakes. They do some gluten free stuff and are dog friendly too!
