The cafe has a very institutional feel, reminiscent of a church, hospital, or AgeConcern cafe. Located on the second floor of a multi-functional building that also houses the prison's learning centre, it was originally intended for prison staff and visitors but is now open to the general public from 10 to 3 (kitchen closes at 2).

The food, service, and overall experience were all fantastic at this restaurant. We had been considering visiting for some time and finally did today, and we were not disappointed.

The staff were friendly, polite, and very helpful, even going as far as to find out where the black pudding came from. We wanted to order dessert, but I didn't have enough cash on me (no cards accepted), but that just gives us another reason to come back soon. We highly recommend this place.

Visited on Saturday 06 May as a group of bikers on a ride out from Yeovil and we ended up at the cafe for a late breakfast. I opted for a bacon and egg bap and it was delicious, packed with bacon topped with a perfectly poached egg and cost just 3 quid!! The views outside the cafe are spectacular and well worth taking photographs of.

Excellent food and service from prisoners and staff. Can't recommend it highly enough. There's a stairlift for less able visitors and a wheelchair, a highchair and changing facilities for babies, and comfortable chairs for everyone in between!
