Our second visit to this lovely cafe, to try their new outdoor area! We enjoyed pancakes and coffees while the boys fed the ducks through the glass balcony that backs onto the canal, there are duck food cones available to purchase! We have two energetic boys and this was just the best place to take them, the service is always lovely here too. Reasonably priced and always a warm welcome will definitely be back again!

Lovely little place - went with my baby girl for our breakfast, and we were made to feel very welcome. Food was delicious and hot, came out quickly, and was very reasonably priced. Will be back, thank you

A wonderful find, tucked away in plain sight. A total fluke that I visited, but sooo glad that I did! It's a tiny cafe with excellent, friendly customer service, exactly the food you want to eat, prepared fresh and great quality. The atmosphere of the cafe is brilliant, but it's the view when ordering, (washing up ) or sat in their outdoor space that makes it truly special. Seek it out...there's even more to discover!

Been under new management for a few months now and I've probably been 3 or 4 times. Their attitude is excellent and you can see small improvements and changes they make as they adapt. Food is good. Soft drink selection still good. I hope the community supports this cafe, they're doing an excellent job.

Had a brilliant breakfast at the bridge cafe this morning. The full English does not disappoint. Fantastic value for money for £10 and massive portions with unlimited toast. Food items are great quality. Old school interior like cafes used to be. Spotlessly clean very quick service and really friendly staff. Lots of locals dropping in that are obviously regulars. You must try it we are definitely coming back.

Perfect little local cafe with fast and friendly service always adjusting the decor to the season would highly recommend to anyone even families with wild children as they even have toys to keep them occupied so you can enjoy a relaxing brew

Really great food, lovely warm welcome. The owner is very hard working but always seems friendly. Lovely community cafe. The cherry Bakewell tart was amazing!
