It's a nice little place on Moffat High Street with nice traditional decor (feels a little Parisian!) good coffee and plenty of seating. I would visit again. It has working wifi and the staff are pleasant. There's at least one table with a plug socket by it.
It's only a 3 star review because of food quality, price and ambience. Quality: The scone came with squirty cream and jam in little plastic pots like at a hotel breakfast. Not terrible, but not really what you'd hope for. Soup was pleasant though not exceptional, served with a very cheap white roll which was fresh but not nice. Should just underline - it's proper coffee and well made, so if that's what you're after this is a great place.
Price: The traditional breakfast is £8.90! Including coffee, but still. Jacket with cheese and beans £6.50. Toasties all over £4.50. So, not outrageous but for the quality not great.
Finally, ambience: the radio in the kitchen is playing bad rock music from Radio 1 coupled with the ranting of a day time DJ and jingles. It is audible throughout the cafe, the staff chatting behind the counter the only other noise. The fridges hum and some of the tables have got staff working at them preparing for tomorrow I guess (we're here latish in the day). It's not outrageous, but it makes it distinctly less homely to be here.
So overall, somewhere that is perfectly passable and definitely not bad, but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to spend time. With a few tweaks or maybe on a different day might be much better. Didn't try the cakes but there's a fine selection and they cook really good. read more
