Primary reason for eating here was the gluten free options. Nice to have lots of choice clearly labelled. Made very welcome with two prams despite being a squeeze. An extra table was brought down for us and my pram was lifted into storage downstairs for me. Staff also helped lift it back out the shop at the end. There's only one high chair so if it's in use there's not another but that's understandable given the size of the venue. No changing facilities either (just a mat would be great) but again, small venue and there's other places in town you could find the nip into and change. Staff were happy with us doing it downstairs where no one else was eating etc. If you're in a group, they have the option to spit the bill by items at the till which is always a plus.

We really enjoyed our coffee & chocolate there. Staff very helpful & friendly. Nice small terrace outside. Just one thing: please fix the toilet lid, it doesn’t stay up; it’s difficult to pee (male customer) having to hold the lid with one hand.
