So cute and so friendly. Great coffee and excellent panini followed by lemon drizzle cake . ( shared with my wife 😏). Lucky to be able to sit inside on a cool morning - seats 5 inside and some outside. Lot of takeaway trade. On the 65 cycle route. Take a detour to see the magnificent Archbishops Palace just down the road. No toilet. We used the local pub.

Fantastic little coffee shop, and Jenny the owner is both lovely and serious about her coffee. Made me a fantastic Long Black which was just what I was looking for and was really really good
