We stop by almost every week while my son is at kung fu. Pamela and her staff have become part of the family. So welcoming and friendly. The coffee, breakfast, paninis and cakes are great too and very reasonably priced!

Nice facility to have in the park. I always grab a coffee from here when taking the kids to the playground. Staff are friendly and there looks like a good range of hot and cold food. I tried some vegan chocolate cake and that was tasty.

Lovely park with a brilliant playground- sand pit, slide, swings. There's also tennis courts and lots of grass to run around. Cafe is definitely worth a visit too- would recommendations the milkshakes

Lovely place to grab a coffee or bite to eat while in the park. The park is lovely, plenty of space to walk a dog or take a stroll.
