Visiting tips & what to bring

There is a wide free car park within the grounds, which almost never fills up. As it centres on outdoor terrace and garden seats, if you want to avoid the sun or sudden rain, choosing roofed seats is reassuring. For grass seats, footwear you are used to is recommended. Pets are allowed on the terrace only, not inside. As it is a popular shop, the freshly baked bread has a wider variety earlier in the day. Toilets available.

For families with small children

With a wide grassy garden and a swing where children can run around, it is a family-friendly environment suited to families with children aged 0 to 6 too. Centred on outdoor terrace seats, it is easy to spend time without minding the surroundings, with easy-to-eat menu items for small children such as freshly baked bread and juice. The grounds are easy to move around with a pushchair, but as there are many outdoor seats, taking sun and insect measures gives peace of mind.
