   Would definitely recommend getting the cheese platter and the salad with cheese! Delicious! The waitress that helped us was very sweet!

   This is a nice place to look at. I found the interior to be calm and relaxing. The only issue I had was the poor service. It was so very, very slow, to the point that we nearly walked out. One of the team members glanced my way on 5 occasions but looked away rapidly to avoid having to work. At one stage, 4 staff members were in the kitchen just chatting. One was texting on her phone. A total lack of interest frotm them. The coffee, however, was very good. It does disappoint when you get poor service. This place could be an absolute gold mine if someone could control the team.

   We stopped by The Mousehole Cafe and Restaurant for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The setting is charming, with a relaxed coastal vibe that matches the beauty of the village. We ordered a mix of light and comfort food—fresh salad, creamy cheese, crispy fries, hearty sandwiches, and drinks. The sandwiches were well-filled and satisfying, served warm with fresh ingredients. The fries were golden and crisp, not greasy. The side salad was fresh and nicely dressed, adding balance to the meal. The coffee was strong and aromatic, perfect for a post-meal pick-me-up. The vanilla milkshake was thick, smooth, and full of flavor—one of the best we’ve had in a while. Service was quick and friendly, and the staff made sure we were comfortable throughout. It’s clear they care about quality and presentation, which comes through in the food and the atmosphere. Shared a few photos so others can get a feel for the place—definitely recommend if you’re in the area. Great spot for a casual lunch or a coffee break.

   Popped into cheddar and stopped here for an afternoon treat. Nice quiet spot with cosy vibe, very relaxing and warm welcome. Nice big menu with plenty from afternoon teas, lunch, warm meals, and sweet treats. Ordered scones and latte, perfect scones I would say, nice and warm, creamy clotted cream and fresh citrusy strawberry jam! Really enjoyed this spot and the price is good considering the area and foot traffic these places get. The quality of produce and service is deffo here at the mousehole. Would rate this a 8/10.

   We go to Cheddar Gorge every year (sometimes twice a year) and our first port of call is The Mousehole cafe! The quality of the food is fantastic and a real decent portion too. The staff are always happy, bubbly and positive and ready to help and I would highly recommend a trip to this cafe! I cannot wait to return!

   Scones weren’t the best and no one on my table was a fan of the cream. The cream had bits in it and the scones were dry, hard and dense. Complete opposite of what they are supposed to be. Only giving two stars due to the wonderful service by the waiters and hot drinks. Food was the real let down as well as the sticky tables.

   Popped in for some tea and coffee (and some milkshakes) with the family. Friendly staff. Lovely decor. Child friendly. Relatively fast service. Definitely recommend if you're visiting Cheddar.

   The layout of the cafe make it difficult for staff to see when you come in the door so you can just go on and find someone when you need them. They do a nice take away sarnie but I think you get more food when you dine in

   Nice but there are nicer cafés further up the hill with nicer view. Staff is a bit robotic. Scones, coffee, tea, ice cream was nice.
