Hidden gem in the countryside. Not very large inside - can probably accommodate 15, maybe 18 patrons at a squeeze, but the place oozes charm. Two lovely ladies were running the place when we were there. Apart from us, everyone else were locals. We were welcomed warmly from the extreme cold outside. Bliss. Good lunchtime menu for a small coffee shop. A variety of hot options on the menu, together with a 'lunchtime special' board. Coffee was of good quality, with nice crema. Also a good range of small snacks available. Check the opening times as they are closed on Sundays.
