About this cafe

Alright me'luvver

Our Barnstaple cafe has a banging spot right in the centre of town. Brimming with character, whether you're a local or looking for the perfect pre/post holiday pitstop, this is your place. Pull up a pew and grab coffee, breakfast, ‘the best brunch in Barnstaple’*, lunch, tea, or cake (despite the name we’re not just a tea and coffee shop!).

*ask Dawn F on Tripadvisor, not us (blushing).

Address: 21-22 Tuly St, Barnstaple, EX31 1DH
