“ Banging breakfast. I had the Brunch with black pudding. Flat white was creamy and decent size. Reasonably priced cafe. 10/10 would scoff again. Highly recommend! Parked round the corner in the pay and display. 70p on Sunday for 10:00-16:00 ”
“ I met up with a couple of mates for breakfast. Coffee was good and then came breakfast. Egg/s, I had two eggs as I am not fond of tinned tomatoes, fried bread, beans, sausage, black pudding, bacon and mushrooms - 8.00 Coffee is extra. Breakfast was hot and nicely served by friendly staff. The cafe was very clean. We will be back. A year later and My mates and I (all 65 - 75 years old) now meet here every 6 to 8 weeks for a fantastic breakfast, a chat and a laugh. Really smashing place. Not a cheap as Spoon's but oh so much better. Bob ”
“ Went here today as my parents moved to the area and told us there were ‘no cafes’. Thankfully it only took a brief search to prove otherwise Looked it up beforehand and saw the great ratings, definitely didn’t disappoint. The staff are so friendly and attentive, there were lots of freshly baked cakes that looked delicious. The menu is varied with so many options at great prices and there’s loads of space to sit down. Not to mention its within easy access of the library car park so you don’t have to walk very far. It’s clean and well decorated. Went straight home to tell parents and they are now extremely excited reading through the menu and exclaiming - guess this is our local favourite cafe now! Look forward to coming again ”
“ Really lovely food. Great atmosphere. Great prices too. ”
“ What a wonderful gem of a place. It has atmosphere, charm, great food at reasonable prices. The service is mostly great but can suffer from the human condition at times. But I to am guilty of that. Coffee is delicious and with a beautiful machine making it so it should be. Cakes are home made with love and taste amazing. I very much enjoy my time there, and find myself relaxed and happy. ”
“ Really lovely cafe, one of the only proper cafes left in Melksham that you can get a full English brekkie all day long! They also do order to takeaway too. Great selection of cakes, pastries, hot & cold sandwiches, baguettes & paninis, hot drinks & ice creams. Lovely friendly staff, quick service and great quality meat & ingredients. Would definitely recommend, good atmosphere, always clean and well decorated. Well done to all the staff that work so hard! ”
