    Gorgeous setting on the deck and cafe is beautifully done. Excellent coffee and wonderful service even though it was very busy! My only thought was for a substantial sweet option on the main menu (like pancakes?) for those that have a sweet tooth! Fantastic to be able to book a table-I really appreciate being able to do that. So great to support a new business and full credit to the design which includes a ramp, an area at the front for dogs and takeaway (there were even people with picnic rugs set up on the grass!) and recycled tables with a QR code-well done!

    We had such a lovely day at Binky high tea. It was very quiet the day we went (a Friday) but service was great and the food was just delicious. Coffee was great. The place is so cute. Would definitely do it again and highly recommend.
