Quick stop there today for the first time. Really nice cake, with side of fruit which was a nice touch, and nice coffee. Quirky little place but all the better for it.
Wonderful, quirky cafe. Exceptional and friendly service, lovely food and coffee, marvellous atmosphere!! Cash only but they’ll do bank transfer and signal is fine with O2!
This was our first visit to this super cute café and we'll definitely be going back. You can eat indoors in the double-decker bus, or outside under cover or not. It's dog friendly too, with a lovely walk across the road on the common, which also has a climbing frame. Great spot!
Really fun way to enjoy your tea and cake. Lots of options of drink, cake & sandwiches. Very friendly service. Good view over the common. Seating outside too for warmer days although you cannot see the common from there.
We had a wonderful afternoon tea celebration for my mum's birthday. The hosts couldn't do enough to ensure our experience was above and beyond. The fresh sandwiches, cakes, and scones were delicious. This is a highly recommended café to visit. You will not be disappointed. Vegetarian and special diet options all catered for (we rang up before our visit to let them know). There were so many cakes we had to take some home to have tomorrow ☺️
Just a perfect cosy breakfast setting. Lovely place, staff always smiling no matter how cold it is. Tasty breakfasts with quality ingredients and huge cakes I've yet to taste as I'm always full. Looking forward to summer.
We went on a Saturday morning which meant the parking was very difficult. But the service was lovely and the food great. It is CASH ONLY
Great use of a retired double decker bus. Located in the village hall car park. Covered outside seating as well as top deck seating with view of nearby Mulbarton Common. Friendly staff. Enjoyed coffee & a huge piece of cake. Not too expensive.
Found on google maps. Website doesn’t mention that it’s cash only (had to drive five mins for cash machine) and that cream tea has to be pre-booked. Service wasn’t brilliant as despite there being five members of staff, no menu was handed to us and found out after sitting down for a few mins a that we had to walk round the other side of the bus to stand by a door and order. This could be improved by signage or staff doing some work. Also had to get my own sugar. Staff could be more polite and website and online profiles could be better as they’re in the middle of nowhere and hard to find. Seating was old and uncomfortable and I wasn’t offered a seat inside.
