  • We were there on a night time event. It was a Meat Loaf tribute act. With it being an old Chapel, the sound was brilliant. Great atmosphere and they are licensed to sell alcohol. We had a great night.

  • What a surprisingly delightful find! Came across this place after walking around and deciding to stop for coffee. Was expecting a makeshift church hall-type place but was pleasantly surprised. Lovely place and very welcoming, will definitely come again.
