Lovely cafe the best scone I've had in a long time . Warm scone lashings of jam and real double cream . And a good coffee. View amazing if you are in a window , staff are very pleasant and welcoming. The museum is fantastic and free , I was very surprised by what was in there . The staff on the reception as you enter are very chatty and explain things to you . There is also a lift to take you one floor up to the cafe .

Excellent food and service. My friend had the cheese and onion pie, best she’s had in years. The homemade soup was delicious. Very reasonable, we will be back!

Bad service. Poor food. Gave the place a second chance and its was no better. Soup served cold no butter or spoon. Very slow service. No atmosphere.
