Finally had the opportunity to grab a coffee here and was very glad I did. This place is away from the busy main road and welcomes you with very comfortable places to sit for work or social time. Very friendly staff and great offerings on their drinks, breakfast and food menus. I’ll be making more of an effort now to return and support this local business.

Enjoyed a lovely cooked breakfast today. Cooked fresh to order, good quality sausages and bacon. Staff Jolie was very kind and friendly. I would recommend a visit.

Possibly the best little hideout in Taunton! I highly recommend for breakfast, lunch or a snack! Coffee to die for! Value for money, the decor inside is warm, cosy and classy!
Love the neo-soul music 🎵… if you’re ever in Taunton, make sure to drop in. Also great if you work on the move, take your laptop and enjoy the vibes 💯
