I meant to have posted a review at the end of November 2021 when I visited with a cycling group. It's quite different/ quirky being a converted railway carriage although we didn't sit inside. It was a glorious sunny/ warm day for late November and we sat outside on the terrace. Good food, pleasant service, reasonably priced and well worth a visit if you're in the area. Positioned in the grounds of a small garden centre.

Has real potential to be a fantastic out in the sticks cafe. It has recently got some new staff who are settling in and it is good to note the All Day Breakfast is served from Wednesday to Sunday! All in all though, really nice cafe on a train carriage!!

We had a breakfast here on return journey home from camping nearby. A great setting and certainly not your ordinary cafe. My boys loved the fact we were on a train as did I. We all had a full English breakfast and was very impressed with the quality of the food, thick bacon ,meaty sausages and the best friend slice I've had in ages. The young lady serving was very smiley and provided perfect service. We live 35 miles away but will be back soon . If you like good food at fair prices in a less than ordinary setting then take the time to visit.

It was lovely to sit outside on the decking. Very accessable for wheelchairs and the staff are very friendly. Food is very nicely presented and good value. Recommended when you visit the garden centre.
