Lovely little cafe in beautiful surroundings. Great spot for coffee and cake if you've just come from a walk around the cwmtillery lake or surrounding area. Dog friendly. Staff were very welcoming.Prices very reasonable Spoke to the owner who said they have been given permission for a garden area for the summer. Definately worth a stop off if you're in the area.

Our monthly meetings bring us here(Wellbeing). This place is absolutely amazing firstly the warm welcome is so good for the soul, then the food and drink blows you away. The quality of there produce and the heart warming appreciation that it's served with makes this a number 1 destination. The attention to the local nature is something important to them too and it shows. From a bacon sandwich to a bowl of soup delivered at home (locat community program)(interested) or a chat about anything, a freshly made cake or just advice. Or even maybe you have something to share. A jar of local honey or even some hand made soap for dogs, yes this place really caters for everyone. There is sheep roaming free so please keep dogs on a lead(just incase) but yes they will even cater for you pooches too. There is a lake across the road with a few paths depending on ability if you want to explore. Definitely recommend this place and well-done to the team. Oh and there is an outdoor pizza oven coming very soon so, all you pizza topping debaters get over and see what's cooking. Soon you all soon. Chris T

Lovely community cafe just opposite the entrance to Cwmtillery Lakes. Indoor and outdoor seating and dogs are welcome outside. Good selection of food and drinks including vegan options. The vegan cheese and onion toasties are amazing! Friendly, welcoming staff and there is a nice playground and basketball court.
