Tips from locals
Brunch, lunch, dinner or just coffee and cake - a lovely restaurant to hang out in. It overlooks the main road and is a great space with cool furniture and laid back staff.
Apparently the 'real' cafe where JK Rowling wrote Harry Potter...we much prefer it to The Elephant Cafe which has taken this claim. Great food, quirky, vintage-y kitsch decor and lovely service. A nice place to have lunch, tea coffee and cake or pre-theatre dinner.
Convenient on the way to / from town. Quite relaxed atmosphere where you can relax and hang out for a bit too.
