Best place in Wells for a coffee and cake. Good quality food and drinks and a pleasant atmosphere

·

There is only binary "mens" and "womens" toilets here (plus accessible loo) but was pleasantly surprised that there was a sign in the "mens" toilets offering sanitary products. Great to see such inclusivity in rural Somerset. Thank you for making me feel included. 💙

My friend offered me a coffee here. We ordered lattes with full cream milk. The coffee was very good indeed. It was smooth and tasted like real coffee should, superb stuff.My only gripe would be the cost of a small granola bar which is £2.95, it is too costly in my opinion. The hard wooden seats were a little austere but the nice girls took the pain away 😊We will be going again!

Really fresh food, tasty and quick service once ordered. It’s just queuing to order and pay that needs some speed to improve the experience.

·

First visit since lockdowns and thought it much improved. Seating, menu and quality of food and increased selection. Plenty of gluten free options too.

Lab food, juice concentrate (not fresh) kind of place. I ordered the Vegetarian burger. Turns out it apparently was but tasted exactly like meat?... I wanted it to taste like a vegetable patty, thats why I don't eat meat, cos I don't like the taste or texture. I tried to eat it but it was foul and couldn't. I queried it politely and was told its a new brand. It must have been made in lab or was meat as my body nearly threw up. I thought having the soup instead was a fair compromise but they didn't care and wanted me to pay again.It's not right cos I still feel physically sick an hour later and I don't see the point of keeping people's money and disregarding customer preferences or health. It's not clever and clearly left me disappointed. Views are lovely but I wouldn't go back to that cafe place again.

Best place for lockdown takeaway coffee - excellent - and access to the beautiful Palace gardens. Favourite place.

·

Wonderful setting and lovely food. The best veggie burger I have ever had. The view to the cathedral isn't bad too.

·

Beautiful day out, steeped in history, follow in the footsteps of the worn treads made by people since the 1200's a fantastic place for the devout or to marvel at the wonder of the stonemasons and craftsmen in days of yore

·

Nice cafe. Good hot drinks and sensibly priced selection of sandwiches given its location. Plenty of seating and free glasses of water.
