We arrived just before 9am, there is seating inside & out. Very clean and welcoming. Good breakfast menu, they also do lunch & cake! Very reasonably priced, would recommend.

Went for a simple bite to eat and ordered a bacon baguette, it took very little time to be seated and served and upon receiving my food, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food served. Lovely calm and quiet establishment with very friendly and charming staff members, I’m going to make this one off trip a regular visit. 10/10 if the chart allowed I would go higher.

What a beautiful place for a cosy seat out of the rain! Superb, friendly staff offering the personal touch which is hard to find these days. Even my children ate their meals - equally rare! Next time you’re in New Milton, be sure to visit for an excellent-value, hearty and tasty meal.
