A gem of a coffee shop, right here in St Thomas. Jen and Eddie are top notch owners who love to serve customers only the best. Sandwiches are so tasty and the coffee made by Sam is made with care. Their staff is customer focused with a big shout out to Sophie who served me.

We visited this bakery based on its appearance in Britain’s Best Bakeries and unfortunately we were really disappointed.
