Cakes excellent, a nice range of breakfast/lunch options, staff friendly and pretty prompt on what was a very busy Saturday. Sat by the fire to recover from a downpour, with help to dry our coats...this is a community initiative so a little less formal than most commercial settings! It also has the advantage of being close to other community activities, for those interested in local events. Still developing opening times and availability, but building a good customer base and a very much appreciated addition to the village.

Lovely addition to the village eating scene and good to see the Linsmohr being used again , staff friendly and efficient and its very reasonably priced , I had the coronation chicken sandwich and a cappuccino , only complaint would be that the coronation mayo was too dry but the coffee was first class , will definitely be back to try a meal option.

Lovely place we found it by accident. It’s a community based cafe with volunteers. Food was great nice portion size and reasonable prices. Staff were attentive. You can sit in but there’s also a take away option too shown in the picture. We’ll be back for sure. Deserts were delicious. Quite close to Pitmedden Gardens where we went for a visit and walk afterwards.

Cheap eats, tasty coffee, fast friendly service and a great toddler play area next to some of the tables. Fab kids menu too, and staff are always willing to adjust orders if it's not exactly what you/your child wants. Awesome.

Have had lots of nice cakes and coffee since the cafe opened but last week was my first lunch. Had the fish and chips with homemade coleslaw and side salad. Couldn't fault it in any way. The orange and almond cake for afters was superb.
