Most Liked

Visitors rave about the delicious coffee, with cappuccinos being a standout favorite. Customers love the impressive dessert selection, particularly the chocolate fudge cake and apple pie. The breakfast offerings receive high praise, especially the English breakfast and vegetarian options, which cater to diverse tastes. The welcoming atmosphere is a recurring highlight, making it easy to relax or catch up with friends. Quick service, even during busy hours, adds to the appeal, allowing guests to enjoy their meals without long waits.

Most Disliked

Some guests note that particularly busy times can lead to a bit of a wait for tables, especially on weekends around 10 AM, creating a packed atmosphere. While the space is generally cozy, it may feel cramped during peak hours, making it less comfortable for larger groups or those seeking a quiet setting. A few visitors wish for more vegetarian and vegan options, as the menu, while extensive, leans towards traditional offerings. There are reports of the occasional item being sold out, highlighting the popularity of certain dishes, particularly on busy days.

We don’t often come to Farnham, but I’m so glad we did today (14th August) me, my son and his partner had some lovely food when we went into the cafe. Everything was cooked to perfection and the prices of the food were fantastic. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting Farnham and looking for something that’s budget friendly :)

Came here for the first time today. What a lovely place. We had a delicious breakfast. The service from quick. The waitress friendly and attentive. We sat by the window and enjoyed people watching while we tucked into our lovely breakfast. Very affordable and decent size portions.. really good value for money..the staff were busy but looked after you really well so you won't waiting long. Can totally understand why it was busy as our experience was great.

Discovering this cafe has been a blissful escape. The welcoming aroma and polite staff create a warm atmosphere. The vegetarian burger with chips and a delightful hot chocolate make for a perfect indulgence. This hidden gem's serene ambiance provides a tranquil retreat, making this place my go-to haven for relaxation and comfort.

Have been working in Farnham all week and tried this place on the last day. Gutted I didn’t come here sooner. Everything was spot on and exactly what’s expected for the ‘local cafe’. Quick, delicious and prices are brilliant. It was busy and can see it’s loved by the locals as well. Will be my go to whenever I’m back to visit now.

Had a lovely fry up breakfast at a good price, friendly and cheerful service, brilliant! 🙂 I suppose the view isn't great, but that's not what we're their for.

Fantastic experience. The food was incredible, at a brilliant price. The place was nice and the staff were friendly. I can’t believe I’ve been going to chain restaurants for breakfast when this place has been around the corner this whole time. I couldn’t believe the prices, we both had a Gorge Special, one with chips and I changed the chips for hash browns. Normally not a fan of chips on a breakfast but after stealing a few from my girlfriends I have been persuaded! Cappuccino was also lovey. Will 100% be returning, will be surprised if I haven’t returned within a week!
