    A very nice tearoom which offers a variety of tea and cakes. We had fruit scones that were delicious, moist and fresh.

    Best scone I've eaten, wow. Light and fluffy and delicious. Great tea selection too and it's well priced. We were very lucky to get a table at the end of the day after a short queue. Very glad to do so. Well worth the wait. Toilets are a sight to behold as well...

    Mid Hike stop for lunch and a coffee, I got seated quickly in a lovely table outside so I could enjoy the March sunshine. Ordered inside, great menu, vast choice. I had an Americano with cream (hard to find a place that serves cream) and the warm cheese scone with cream cheese and smoked salmon. The food was beautifully fresh and flavoursome and the coffee was lovely. Staff very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend you stop by and enjoy

    A gem of a place! Beautiful tearoom with a lovely atmosphere and fantastic food. The haggis with poached egg was incredible and a special but should have a permanent place on the menu. The scones were light and fluffy and the best I have had. Will be back to this beautiful tea room.
