I absolutely loved going to Joanna’s Cafe. If you haven’t been there already I highly recommend you do so, it’s dog friendly as well and I got to meet so many lovely dogs who don’t cause any trouble whatsoever. On top of that they make the most excellent brownies and sausage rolls I have ever tasted. I go every week and that’s my main order: a brownie and a sausage roll with a cup of coffee. The staff also treat you so amazingly and make you feel at home, and the service is always on point. The atmosphere is just so amazing inside and I really love going to visit the cafe when I get a chance. They show the allergies on the menu card, so I have no trouble whatsoever thinking about what your order. They make their food with love and it goes as far to say. This us the best cafe I have ever been too!!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this charming cafe and I must say, the tuna melt with salad, homemade slaw was absolutely delightful. The tuna melt itself was perfectly grilled, with a generous amount of tuna that was moist and flavorful. The salad was fresh and crisp, with a variety of vibrant greens. But what truly set this dish apart was the homemade slaw. The slaw was a refreshing blend of cabbage, carrots, and other fresh vegetables, all tossed in a creamy dressing. wonderful crunch and added a burst of flavor to every bite. It is a lovely setting. The staff are really friendly and nothing is to much trouble. I highly recommend giving it a try - you won't be disappointed!

A lovely quaint café that we found whilst waiting for our car to be serviced down the road. A lovely, fresh hot breakfast and wrap were devoured and wash down with a pleasant coffee.
