Very impressed. Had my first coffee there a couple of weeks ago during a long walk and loved it so much I deliberately walked the same route this weekend so I could have another one. Trouble was I had forgotten to bring a mask. They were so helpful and kind and served me through the open window! Happy Days. I am a bit fussy when it comes to coffee, but their coffee is lovely!

Great cafe!! Was having a stressful morning as a new mum and went in and felt so much better! The two girls working there were a delight! Helped me up the front stairs with my pram - entertained my baby with lots of smiles! Panini and hot chocolate were good. Great baby changing facilities. Noticed that the staff were making a real effort with every customer that came in - something you see less and less of nowadays. Highly recommend! Xx

Quick visit for a hot drink, the staff are friendly and it's a nice place to get a drink. There is a good selection of food to eat in or takeaway.

This cafe is just what Bloxham needed! From the moment my friend and I arrived with babies in tow the staff were just wonderful! There are stairs to access the cafe but the staff were so helpful offering to carry our prams in for us. We found a nice cozy corner for a catch up. The selection of food and drink was amazing and all so tempting! The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was brought over to us really quickly and it was delicious.
