Platform 19

Platform 19 cafe and Antiques shop named after the railway station which stood opposite and was shut in 1968 photos of the station can be found inside. The Cafe plays Jazz music which adds to the ambience of this rustic Cafe. A friendly atmosphere serving tea breakfast and Lunch even on a Sunday. A great place to visit if you simply wish to relax and eat.

This is my local, always pop in for a takeaway coffee whenever I can, food is great, owner is lovely. She looked after Marmaduke the moose for two months after I bought it early for a birthday day gift. Take a look at all the bits and pieces throughout the café, there are many hidden gems. A firm favourite with any friends that visits with me. If you're lucky there could be some homemade bread pudding left, it's delicious and sells quick.

What a terrific find! The pizza place across the road was fully booked so we gave this a try. It looked cosy and inviting if a little quirky (but that is part of the charm). Delicious food with a south American influence, and the most amazing desserts. Not only that, but I ended up buying the table we ate at! I had no idea it was an antique shop too. As Sandra, the charming co-owner of this establishment said, everything is for sale, apart from the dog! Friendly service and reasonable prices, the world needs more places like this.
