My perspective is mainly from a hearing aid wearer's point of view. There is nothing to soak up noise in the almost open plan premises . Open doorway and large hatch through to kitchen .
Stacking of plates, putting cutlery in tray, chairs dragging on floor, an upset child, the coffee machine steaming and to top it all when I turned my hearing aids off, which I had to, a loud buzzing interference along a line near the till.
I had a sprung upholstered seat, one of only a few which was fairly comfortable. On a previous visit for their 5 course evening meal I had a hard wooden chair and fidgeted uncomfortably throughout the meal. Maybe the seat would not be a problem for someone taller.
I had an Angus burger with fried cubed potatoes a dessert spoonful of coleslaw and a dressing of salad. It was all a bit dry. The burger patty could have been flatter and of larger diameter to make it easier to eat, particularly since it wasnt juicy.
It was overall not a successful visit although the complementary chocolate after the meal was nice.
Realistically I think the cost is built in to the meal.

My husband and I were visiting Hornsea for the first time and called into this lovely little cafe, having tried and failed to get a table elsewhere. I am so glad we couldn’t get in elsewhere because we would never have seen this lovely little hidden gem.

My husband had a sausage and onion panini and I had the breaded Camembert salad. It was gorgeous and we cleared our plates.

We then had the cheesecake and the salted caramel marble cake. Really good but so calorific!

It was gorgeous though, well worth a visit

The only thing I will say is that from the street as you walk along it could perhaps look a bit tacky and put some of you off, but please don’t let it!

When you’re inside it’s absolutely lovely the food took about 5 minutes to arrive and tasted scrumptious! You need to try the hot chocolate too I admit I was skeptical but once I tried it I knew they weren’t lying it tastes absolutely gorgeous the nicest hot chocolate I’ve ever had!!!

And once you’ve paid your (very reasonably priced) bill you even get a free chocolate biscuit from their wide selection! Will definitely come again :)

My family went for lunch one Saturday, staff are friendly and will alter the meals to suit you. Very clean and does have a WC. Which is not always the case for somewhere small.

We called here for the first time after doing our shopping as it's on the main street of Hornsea. We sat outside and with a coffee as we had our dog with us, they were other people with dogs so it was quite a friendly and chatty place. The staff went out there way to please and gave us a chocolate before we left.. Very yummy too... Thank you...
