Went here today and it was great. Lovely area and managed to get a seat outside. Service was quick and decent enough inside the shop. Could maybe smile a little more 😂 Would go back 👌🏻 only complaint and it’s not really a complaint is there is so many dogs wandering about when you’re trying to eat. Not a major issue though as it is a dog walking area so to be expected 👌🏻
