It was nice to see such a unique piece of history in the area, but the café (which we only knew was a cafe after we left the area) wasn't very inviting. It's just a black container with a window or two and an A board. It was a VERY hot day so we didn't stick around too long but next time we'll check out the cafe.

Mayfest. Fabulous. Kid loved it.

The windmill itself is closed due to the pandemic, but it is a lovely small park with a children's playground and sports area. Updated May 2023: Everything now open, of course, and there are all sorts of activities in the community centre, many free or only charging a nominal fee. May 2025: The Friends of Windmill Gardens organiser Open Weekends and other special events several times a year.
