Nice hidden away cafe that needs to be discovered. Don't be put off by the exterior, the food is good, the prices decent and the staff are friendly. We been a few times when we walk the River Lee from Waltham Abbey. Our last visit it was closed due to flooding in the kitchen but we were still welcomed in for coffee even though they were grappling with a challenging clean-up.

I love it here I go almost every two weeks. The food is fresh and a great price. The staff are extremely friendly and they have a soft play area and play areas outside for children. Great little cafe for family’s to go to.

A quirky cafe spitting distance from the canal, it has an indoor and outdoor children's play area.
The decor outside wouldn't look out of place in a ranch in the middle of texas, lot's of weird and wonderful items

Nice All day breakfast reasonable price for the quantity you get, great place to bring kids too. Soft play area and out side area and nice walk along the river.

Good little cafe with nice walks around it. It's full of toys for kids to play with a little bouncy castle and soft play which are free to use. That's a rarity these days. We will be back.

Went in here for a pit stop today, the food was absolutely delicious, I had a grilled chicken salad and I've got to say probably the best salad I've ever had. Staff are all really welcoming and friendly, could've sat there for hours but I had to walk off the food. Am definitely going back.

Visited here last Friday 24th September with my 3 year old Granddaughter. Have to say we had a great time there was so much for her to do all free provided you purchase food and drink there. I had the hash browns breakfast which was delicious and she had the kids chicken goujons which were lovely chunks of fresh chicken and chips, she ate the lot! There is soft play, bouncy castle and numerous bikes prams scooters etc plus a little Wendy house. So plenty to play with, some things were a little tatty but she loved it. A lovely walk along the river to it as well. Highly recommend

Huge cafe with tons of small bikes and even a bouncy castle outside for kids. There is also a small soft play inside.
Good selection of cold drinks including beers.
Huge menu, there is menus all over the place. Didnt try the food this time however it looked nice from what was coming out of the kitchen.
Nice little stop off for when your cycling.
