BUSINESS
The business was established by the present owners in 2007 as a daytime café/restaurant and tearooms, serving a range of teas, coffees, soft drinks, sandwiches, cakes, pastries, morning goods, full cooked breakfasts, salads, jacket potatoes, main meals, lunches and afternoon teas. Daily specials are displayed on a blackboard. A range of wine, bottled beers and spirits is also offered.
Although currently only trading during the day, there is obvious scope to increase the opening hours and develop a substantial evening trade. The restaurant has a dedicated website as well as being featured on many local interest sites.
