This is one of my favourite places in Norfolk. At first glance it's just a café (and a very good…read moreone at that) with a few bookshelves, but venture into the back room, or even into the cellar and you are met with hundred of second hand books, some really old, some foreign, some practically new.

Great little coffee/tea shop in the beautiful village of Cranford St Andrew on the outskirts of…read moreKettering. The cafe is relatively new to the village having been converted from an old blacksmiths (hence the name). The coffee shop is owned by the same couple who run the Coffee Place in Kettering and they have stuck with the same winning formula. Compact lunchtime menu with teatime treats. Home made biscuits and cakes make for good eating. The interior is contemporary while maintaining the tradition and history of the building. Everytime we have been there the place is buzzing with a good collection of locals, walkers and business people. I would strongly recommend this is place as a point to meet people or grab a coffee after a walk around the village.

They is ample seating outside, and is highly recommended for young families as there is a brilliant play area that includes pedal tractors and cars and a meet little race track to your kids to race around on while you enjoy you brew and a cake. There is also swings and a junior zip-wire to entertain them. The windmill is great and visitors can go up the spiral stairs all the way to the top. Running parallel to the coffee shop is a number of quaint little farm shops selling nick nacks and shabby chic items. On my last visit there was also a clothing shop. Defo worth a trip to chill and enjoy the lovely country views.

They even brought some dog biscuits and offered a bowl of water for them. The food is obviously home made and tasty with it the cakes are just fabulous, with the only problem being which to have. The large sized portion meening you could not have two :-) The staff were very friendly, but courteous and not in any rush to push you out the door. Prices are more than fair. Will definitely be going back again.
