Staff are super friendly and lovely to chat and have a laugh with. The drinks me and my partner got were amazing and we got the toasted bagel with peanut butter which was to die for! Will definitely be coming back! I highly recommend this place to coffee lovers or if you're looking for something a bit different!

We went there this morning . It was busy but we were served very quickly . We both had a coffee and scone , jam and cream . It came warmed , with a generous amount of jam and lovely thick cream. They were very reasonably priced and mine was gluten free and was the best gluten free scone I've had in a long time . We will definitely be back . Staff were very nice too. We have returned many a time since and it's now the only place we have a coffee or a tea in Belper . Been this morning in fact and sat outside in the sun with a delicious scone .

Love this little cafe, staff are lovely and the food is delicious. So much attention to detail, with homemade chocolate flakes in the hot drinks (customisable!!! white/milk/dark) and an amazing choice of lunchy foods, whether you're looking for something sweet or savoury (I had a salmon cream cheese sandwich with (incredible) carrot and coriander soup). There is always a new soup, cake and scone of the week in new/interesting flavours, and I once had an amazing freakshake there (pictured; though I'm not sure if they are still on the menu).

A beautiful little cafe situated in the middle of belper. Had a lovely cappuccino and a scone with cream and jam. Caters for gluten free which is great. Friendly staff and the cafe has a lot of character.

I had the loveliest salad followed by a taster plate of gluten free cakes. A good menu with choice of gluten free meals. All cakes are home made & delicious. Very friendly staff. A relaxing place to visit. I shall be going back soon. Try it, you won't be disappointed
