A lovely spot for a coffee while soaking in the atmosphere. Was there on a market day which was even better. Friendly service.
Absolutely the best lunch ever. It was our last day in the area before returning to Ireland. We had Mackerel pate with salad and sourdough toast. Just the ticket. Sat upstairs. Great views. We will certainly have to come back.
Perfect. Visited with my Mum on a busy Sunday. Staff were polite and efficient and the food and drinks were absolutely wonderful. Thank you!
Excellent cafe bar right in the heart of Wells. The inside felt spacious & there’s also loads of outside seating. We were served by a charming young man with impeccable manners & and a great sense of humour. He supplied Mikey the Jack Russell with a welcome bowl of water & us with 2 Earl Greys & 2 of the best homemade mince pies I’ve tasted in a lot of Christmasses. 5 stars; thanks guys! Keep being wonderful.
