This cafe has the best sandwiches and the girls are very friendly.
Wonderful surprise to find a cafe in the library. Staff are wonderful and cheerful. The apple pie and toffee latte were very yummy and the seating and tables very comfy. …
Great coffee shop minutes away from the town centre - skinny latte was delicious and very reasonably priced.
Lovely, relaxing atmosphere. Great space for business meetings too!
