Great venue with plenty of parking and good outlook outside. Friendly staff. Wonderful selection of cabinet food. Ordered the seafood chowder and have to say I have never seen it like this. It is a thin seafood soup that needs more seafood and more oomph. Very overpriced for a soup. Great coffee though.

Café clean but felt the prices were very high for a café off the menu. My food was dry and salad was just Lettice which looked a bit sad with 1 half cherry tomato. Had to order at the counter and pay which i don't mind but again with high prices we are doing all the work as no table service .Also had to get our own water glasses only with no water bottle that I saw to take to table so had to get a refill as small glasses .Staff were pleasant.

Some friendly staff but weak knowledge and poor service. Coffee was disappointing and light food of mixed quality. On other hand, clean and fresh look after reopening.

The cafe itself is welcoming and lovely and bright with a view out onto some of the golf course. The staff were friendly and very lovely. The food was delicious, tasty and very appealing. The coffee was just perfect. I highly recommend No.5 cafe for a get together with friends or family or just on your own. It is a beautiful spot.
