River Cottage Cafe

Review update 2023, Easter Sunday... Sad that the gift shop has gone. Had always been a favourite, with many cool gifts bought. Anyhow, times have changed. This place still has what we remember, great delicious food & atmosphere. Enjoyed the Rwena French Toast. The Eggs Benedict looked yum (Husband enjoyed that). There was plenty of seating for us to choose, tables in garden in the sun, shade or a private table around in the covered potted garden and wee fernery. Look forward to coming back in the future and after parkrun on Saturday morning in coming months. Nice that it's dog friendly too. Highly recommended!! Review from 4 years ago... A wonderful place to relax, take in the tranquility of the cottage garden & wild bird life. We enjoyed watching young Tui birds feeding in the gardens edge while we sipped our delicious coffee & ate. A small vegan menu offering, but the food is beautifully crafted and presented. The vegan caramel slice was amazing, the best I have ever tasted if I'm honest. The corn fritters were super tasty. A fantastic cafe and gift shop full of unique & quirky present options. Off road parking available too. A wonderful place to help you relax and escape the busy world outside. Parking: We were lucky to get the last park, appeared to parks along street.

Extremely disappointing visit to what was once an attractive ,pleasant, happy cafe with lovely staff and excellent dependable food. The whole place seems unloved, including apathetic staff. Coffee was ok . The berry tart ( unlabelled) previously greatly enjoyed was inedible ! The base appeared very undercooked ,it was sour tasting and unpleasant . When asked for cream, the waitress informed us that It is yoghurt today ! Please learn some basic pleasantries land good customer service. We will avoid in future
