First time here and what a pleasant visit it was. Surprised myself as on a Saturday afternoon I would normally opt to go to a pub! But the Missus has been before and recommended it. Gorgeous lemon and sultana scone. Ambience out the back with the heater was very nice. Staff lovely too. Can't wait to come back!

Lovely cafe in the centre of Morpeth. Food is always lovely. It had been a while since we had been so I suggested it to mum today for lunch. The menu is plentiful with lots of specials on the boards around the cafe. It is small and can get busy in the summer they have a lovely outdoor space aswell with extra tables. Today mum had a pear walnut and Stilton salad which looked lovely and according to mum was lovely. I had a bacon & Brie toastie which was done on a thick slab of tiger bread and very substantial. The server was very helpful with my intolerances and said they would request my food with no slaw on the side as to not contaminate my food. I have Ulcerative colitis and have to live by a low fodmap diet. I know my tolerance levels. We then followed our lunch with a Victoria sponge cake to share which was lovely and moist and yummy. The staff are always friendly and we will be back soon.

The food here was delicious. And for a small-ish cafe, there was a great selection of dishes to choose from… We went for the cheese and onion toastie, the ham and cheese quiche and the CROISSANTWICH (at least I think that’s how you spell it!) from the special board. It came filled with scrambled eggs, bacon and tomato but there were also other filling options. The atmosphere was calming and welcoming, with a snug in the window to enjoy a coffee on. The service was excellent and the food came quickly (but not too quickly!). All in all a very comfortable experience. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for good food in a cozy environment!
