Reviews Summary

Many appreciate the friendly service and dog-friendly policy, though some find the prices a bit high and have noted minor service issues or inconsistency in specific dishes.
"Caught up with our daughter and her partner over brunch today in this lovely cafe in Ledbury. The staff were very pleasant on our arrival.
There is an excellent choice of food and beverages.
We all enjoyed our brunch and the ambience there is lovely.
My husband was very pleased to notice black pudding on his full English breakfast. Our daughter chose some halloumi on the side of her eggs Royalle which was delicious.
The coffee, tea and orange juice was all of a high quality.
It’s great that this venue is very dog friendly too. The walled garden is a beautiful space to enjoy food or a drink but it was exceptionally warm today so we dined in the conservatory area."

"Met up here last Sunday with a group to plan an upcoming trip. Spent about three hours drinking coffee and chatting, and a couple of people had food. The bacon in the sandwiches was the thickest I've ever seen, and my daughter almost inhaled the eggs benedict! If you like friendly service, good coffee, tasty food and quirky, historic buildings, this is the place for you."
Sophie Sandison
"Such a nice venue made you feel like you'd walked into a home.
Table service is available here too which is lovely.
A beautiful out side seating area available, which also allows you to view the chef cooking.
Toilets are up a flight of stairs not a problem for me personally but this could be a downside for others.
Food was amazing!! cooked fresh, no grease!! (we had the breakfast). Good cup of coffee available too.
I will definitely eat here when im next in town"
