Dropped the Mrs off at the hospital and came here for lunch with the dogs. Easy parking. Nice café. Dog friendly inside and out. Really nice food, had a panini. The coffee was amazing. I'll be back. Cheers.

Visited today. I asked about vegan options and they have a vegan burger or could make up a Buddha bowl from a selection of fresh veg and salad. As it was they made me up a veggie sandwich. The owner also provided complimentary homemade vegan fresh fruits ice cream to sample. Whilst the food was very nice, what was a delight was that the owner was more than happy to accommodate my dietary requirements - it was no trouble at all. Wish more establishments were like that! It’s a bit out of the way (next to borders general hospital) but worth a visit.

Lovely cafe in the cricket club pavilion. The bacon roll was great as was the coffee. A good selection of food. Very handy to get to from the hospital. I look forward to returning.

Great spot for coffee and cake or more: good range of very appetising paninis, sandwiches, quiche etc. Great bacon rolls too. Clearly very popular coffee spot for regulars, which is a testimonial. Sit indoors or outside on covered veranda and there’s more outdoor seating for warmer days.

Great place for lunch with a good selection of panini’s, sandwiches and cakes etc. Coffee was of good quality, and they were happy to prepare a weaker / one shot coffee which was perfect. Hot chocolate was good as well - definitely one of the better options compared to other cafes in the area. Plenty of seating available inside and out. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Called in for lunch on a motorcycle ride with a pal. Fantastic wee place, sat on the veranda over looking the pitch with the hills in the background. Great selection of homemade paninis, sausage rolls, quiche and much more. Delicious and reasonably priced. We'll be back
