"I stumbled across this gem online when researching places serving breakfast using Redhill Farm produce. Called in on Saturday morning. An exceptionally welcoming team in a beautifully decorated barn conversion. The attention to detail makes this somewhere special. The bacon was full of flavour. That black pudding was the best I’ve ever had too (melt-in-the-mouth and could taste the seasoning. So far removed from the dried hockey puck served in most places). The toast: Crisp on the exterior and fluffy within. Even the ketchup was a bit tastier than the usual fare. All washed down with a great pot of tea. Those pancakes devoured by my mum also looked perfect too. Highly recommend and will definitely call again."

"Fabulous food and friendly staff (each and every time). Highly recommend. Food: for Veggies and Carnies, alert staff to any allergies Food is cooked to order so can take time, but worth the wait. Accessibility: good, gravel, but plastic squares to entrance. Disabled loo and parking. Children's Outside Play area. Ice-cream Hut outside (Easter - Summer I assume). Payment: Cash or Card Shop: selection of hand creams etc. Small young children's crafts (Cash or Bank Transfer only). Toilets: yes including disabled."

"Absolutely stunning cafe and small shop. We stopped with our 2 boys (4 and 8) who enjoyed running around in the safe and open space outside. The food was absolutely gorgeous, the coffee is the best I have ever tasted anywhere and the staff (which included the owners) were friendly and fully attentive. You can tell this family business is run from the heart with every single bit of detail from the impeccable decor (the wooden ladder running across the exposed beams is originally from the farm and is over 60 years old) right down to the huge sachets of tomato ketchup. This is an absolute jewel in the crown of North Lincolnshire!"
