The Ropery Coffee Shop

Went today at 4.45pm for a very quick cup of tea as I was aware that the coffee shop closed at 5.00pm. When I asked for a cup of tea, the woman at the counter looked horrified while the other woman actually turned her back to me. I was told that even though the shop closes at 5pm they actually stop serving at 4.45pm so they could not make me a cup of tea. I was not asking for a three-course meal, just a cup of tea which I would have finished by 5pm anyway, First rule of business: never turn a customer away. For the sake of a few minutes, they have lost not only my custom but that of any one else I might have recommended. Poor business practice and very unfriendly.

After enjoying a day walking in the area we visited the coffee shop for refreshments. This was our second visit over a period of time. The cafe is clean including the toilets. There is a large selection of delicious cakes available. The coffee is excellent, served hot, great taste. There is an outside seating area as well as indoor seating. Will be visiting again.

We regularly visit here. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Coffee, scones and cake are excellent. It's predominantly vegetarian, which is great, but there is often something meaty as well. I've enjoyed paninis and falafels, garlic mushrooms- lovely- and there are some really nice looking quiches. There's a good atmosphere, often busy but never rushed.
