My friend and I pop in when cycling nearby and thoroughly enjoy coffee and luxury scones with cream and jam. Staff are extremely friendly and prices are very reasonable.

Enjoyed my baked potato. Friendly and speedy service. It was very busy and, as a result, the noise level was unacceptable to converse. I would suggest sound deadening treatment. There are already carpets so maybe some tapestries on the walls might help?

We had lovely proper homemade soup and a sandwich. Also had a really good coffee. Great wee place, friendly staff. Also very reasonably priced. If in the area, will definitely pop in again.

Lentel soup was hot, not too thick & not too WATTERY as in some cafe's & it tasted very nice. Then I had a baked tattie with coronation chicken & it tasted lovely & I was even able to eat the skin of the tattie, some cafe's u just cannie. My lattie could have been a wee bit more stronger & the rocky rd cake was more like a marsh mallow cake & BEWARE it is very sweet. The staff were all very pleasant BUT the dead end dirt track road up to the Courtyard is what u would call THE ROCKY ROAD - well it's full of pot holes.

My toddler loves going here for a sandwich and cake. I normally get soup and coffee too. They are great at accommodating an early lunch time for my toddler when we visit. It may be a little more busy at lunch time so best to book ahead. Staff are lovely. It's a small cafe, I think 6-8 tables. A relaxed atmosphere. I think there is a gift shop also in a separate building, if I remember right.

I've been here a few times with family for lunch or coffee catch ups. Service is always really friendly. I've booked a table by messaging via Facebook Messenger and my replies are back pretty quick. Great wee menu with lunch/brunch options and cakes. Meringue is pretty amazing, but so is the soup, and the sandwiches ... Can't fault it. Really popular and appears to have lots of regular customers.
