It's a Tesco cafe - not the Ritz. Arrived an hour before closing time for a very late snack after a long walk and they couldn't have tried harder or been nicer to us. Told us what they had left - asked us about our walk. Super friendly - lovely people. Tea was a life saver. Children loved the croissants. Thank you!

Pleasant enough café. They bring your order to the table, which is nice, but occasionally forget! Window seat is good.
