Lovely welcome and good coffee. Clearly a much loved family business. What more could you ask of a coffee shop?

Usually when we're passing they're either sold out, and it's not surprising. The Lemon and blueberry cake was amazing. Coffee's perfect and even though they are tucked up in butchers row, the seating and location is great for a relaxing 10/20 mins out of the main path in Barnstaple.

Although we were the only people in there (it was a funny time 3pm)...we got a hearty, warm welcome. Decor is beautiful and cake was lush. Great coffee locally roasted. Definitely would return.

Really good coffee. Looked amazing inside and the cakes also looked homemade and good. Ordered 6 coffees to go but will be back. Good service also.

I like this cafe, it’s very aesthetic, very Instagramable. The staff seem a bit not welcoming (been a couple of times and it’s been the case all times). The drinks are okay, nothing out of the ordinary, and the food is again okay. Nothing out of the ordinary. Not necessarily bad, but nothing wow.
