With a thoughtfully designed exterior featuring a wheelchair ramp and spacious seating, it caters to all guests. The separate male and female facilities further contribute to the comfort of visitors.

What a precious place this is on the Clyde valley. Starting from the outside, it’s on the first floor but there is an excellent, long slopped wheelchair ramp. They have separate male and female toilets. The cafe is similar to a cafeteria, in that you get served at a counter and they give you a number and deliver the food and drink to your table. At the back of the cafe, there is a very big gift shop with some really quality goods on sale.

The manager and team are fantastic. A couple trips there and love coffee & cake. The manager and her team were also really supportive during a recent incident in the cafe where by my baby daughter fell out of the pram. Super professional, calming and reassuring, they gave me the support I needed at the time.

Popped in for lunch today, Pizzas were very good, home made with amazing flavour, fresh and tasty. Baked potatoe very good too. Nice coffee, friendly staff and felt very covid friendly. Certainly recommend and they have a lot of seating too.

Confused by the reviews saying food and drinks here "aren't affordable." They are normal prices for what you would pay in any regular cafe. Cakes were lovely! 3 for a huge scone is a good deal. Staff are really nice and brought our drinks over to us and were constantly wiping tables and cleaning. Don't listen to the people who complain. They are Karens

I left my phone at this lovely cafe recently and didn't realise until I was hundreds of miles away. The staff I spoke to couldn't have been more helpful and very kindly posted my phone to me. It arrived safely having been carefully wrapped in padding in a strong box. Thank you so.much for all your help. Ps the cafe was great too!

Called in for a quick lunch - jacket potatoes with various fillings and a panini. JPs were very good value, tasty and very generously filled with a nice amount of side salad. They made a slight mistake with the panini order (probably my accent), but immediately put it right politely and without any fuss. Highly recommended. PS - save some space for an ice cream which is also excellent!
