The staff were, as always, helpful and friendly and there is a good selection of food to eat to tempt most palates. You can depend on them for a decent cup of tea or coffee, and makes for a popular meeting place.
The outside tables and chairs offer an alternative option, not always available elsewhere, when the sun is shining. A canopy or awning would be a welcome addition, offering protection from rain showers. A feature that would not just increase the capacity of the cafe, it can be difficult to find a seat inside when it does get busy, when, as a group you, you wish to avoid the rain. A welcome place, not just for dog walkers, to sit outside and enjoy a cuppa, read the paper, or just watch the world go by.
