Lovely cafe with a great atmosphere and good food. A little pricey but it's worth it. Went for breakfast before a walk whilst grabbing a few things from the garden centre. Couldn't resist a piece of cookie pie too.

I'm always curious when small cafes try to do more than quick bites. So I had to come and try some of the Vietnamese Fusion Dishes on offer that were "Made to order by our very own Vietnamese chef with fresh ingredients from traditional family recipes". Vietnamese Noodle Salad, Chicken- 10.5 5/5 It is a light and refreshing vermicelli rice noodle salad in a tangy Vietnamese chilli & garlic dressing with fresh veg. It is filling and the dressing has a very nice flavour and spice blend. Banh Mi - 10.5 3/5 Asian-style baguette with sliced chicken breast, chilli sauce, cucumber, coriander, spring onions and a carrot & radish kimchi slaw, in a crunchy baguette. Nothing too special just a baguette with a different sauce added but still a very filling meal, so a nice meal if you wanted to try something a little different. Fresh Vietnamese chicken Spring Rolls - 10.5 5/5 Homemade rice paper rolls, packed with light vermicelli noodles, carrots, cucumber spring onion and lettuce. Served with herbs and a hoisin peanut chilli dipping sauce. Love the sauce and it's a fresh, light meal. Oat Chai Latte 5/5

Perfect little cafe for a coffee, handmade cakes or breakfast. We're into healthy eating so eat real food/low carb and the folks at Piptree were more than happy for us to ditch the beans, bread and potatoes for extra egg. (Not everywhere is this accomodating.) Great atmosphere, lovely staff, couldn't recommend it more highly.

Lovely little place. The cheese toasty I ordered for my son was exceptional value and the salad looked like it had just been cut there and then, there was no wilting at all. Plenty of parking too, I highly recommend visiting if you're in the area and peckish. My only little feedback would be to cut the sausage in half so the customer doesn't have to.
