Truly misleading. This cafe was open with no tables or seating and no toilets! Very limited food and drink on offer. The ‘craft village’ was dull and very small.

Usually when you get what is meant to be 'the best' version of something, you build it up and it ends up being a let down.Seriously, the best hot chocolate you'll ever grace your taste buds with and I don't say it lightly. I tried to watch what the young padawan was doing to make it, whatever they do it's immensely chocolatey and not over sweet, which I thought it would be.Can buy their secret recipe cocoa powder to recreate at home, better than any shop brand powder you'll get your hands on. Worth the 5 hour drive from Fife, would do it again tomorrow.

If am being honest, the hotchoclate is good but not sure if £4.50 is worth it. At the beginning you get a burning feeling but later on u can feel the thickness of it.Parking is right infront of it available, free.Staffs are nice. One is very chatty which kinnda made our day.Unfortunately not allowed to sit in due to covid

The best hot chocolate! Vegan option available too. Definitely worth dropping in if you’re in the area. Were doing take out only when we were there in mid Sept.

Had the hot chocolate with 4 taster chocolates. For somebody who loves hot chocolate, whilst nice it wasn’t worth the hype. Chocolates were lovely but the whole experience wasn’t worth the money especially as they now only do takeaway.

Nice enough premises, but very very expensive. The smallest cup of coffee I've ever seen was £3, a hot chocolate was more than £5, a box of fudge £22, packet of crisps £1.20. . .need I go on.No dining in, the only option you have is to buy your extortionately priced drink/confectionery, then go outside and drink/eat it in the cold.No toilets.Based on price alone, I would absolutely NOT recommend this place.So long as people except extortionate prices like these, aimed primarily to take advantage of tourists, then nothing will change, morso, the situation will likely worsen.I don't care if they sell the best hot chocolate in the damn galaxy, the prices are way too steep.

Henry Cole said it's the Best Hot Chocolate so that's what I had, was pretty good and well worth the stop. Purchased some Chocolate for a gift, honest.

We had the Mountain mocha and the dark chocolate croissant! And of course we couldn’t help ourselves and got some chocolate bars to taste later and some others as gifts. Everything delicious, highly recommended!

Very nice espresso. I got the 4 chocolate bag. The flavours of the chocolate truffles are really intense and balanced. It’s a must try if you’re driving along the north coast and need a break for your legs. The little village has got few more handcrafts shops and local art galleries.
