The Mexican fritters from the breakfast menu are delicious, and the service is always super friendly. Crowd varies from hipsters to OAPs.

Small and privately owned, this is a very family-friendly shop, even for small children. Seats at the window in a coffee-bar style make it possible to people-watch to your heart's content, or you can sit further back for more secluded privacy. During summer there are usually a couple of chairs and tables on the pavement outside to enjoy the summer sun with your coffee, tea and snack. Prices are not over-inflated and watch out for the 'specials' on the board of breakfast or afternoon tea deals. A delightful little coffee-shop.

It's a glorious view from the top of Cheap Street when you're sitting outside on a sunny day enjoying a cup of fresh coffee - down the ancient street with it's small stream running down the middle, and it's timbered-top buildings all redolant of Frome's historic past. Although, it's probably better when the street isn't quite so busy as shoppings in throngs seem to have a lot less spatial awareness than usual and one nearly ended up on my lap! The ice-cream shop area is fabulous. I remember one hot day (a rarity I know!) I treated myself to a double-scoop cone, one blackcurrant and one gooseberry scoop. Wow the blackcurrant was so sweet and refreshing, whilst the gooseberry was so gloriously tart I just wanted to bury my face in it. Absolute ice-cream heaven. And with a combo of their regulars and their specials it's a delight to see what's new!

I can remember…read moremany a Sunday morning after a long Saturday night rolling along down to the Farmer Giles for a real traditional fry-up to help banish the hangover! Overlooking the Market Place, it's a lovely basic cafe that does all the comfort-food meals you'd expect - pies, burgers, bacon & sausage fry-ups along with various specialities. As well as the usual soft drinks, milk shakes are prepared frothing and fresh upon request. The portions are always very generous indeed and the prices extremely reasonable. All the food is cooked fresh and is delivered to your table. Unpretentious and clean, run by helpful local assistants, it's always a treat to grab a meal there. Definately the plate to go when you're feeling hungry and really want to tuck into a large plate of home-cooked plate of chips and whatever else you fancy!

The 0700 opening hour is fabulous for me catching a bus at the stop outside at 7.20 on a cold morning it's great to be able to wander in, get a lovely hot latte, and wrap my hands round it to keep warm. Sipping it as I travel I'm pleasantly awake by the time I get to my destination! The serving staff that I have encountered have always been friendly and welcoming and cheerful at that time of a morning it's no mean feat! Hats off to them, and it makes for a very welcoming atmosphere. Mid-morning, when I'm in town on a day off, I sometimes treat myself to a cappucino (lovely huge cup that's more of a bowl!) and just people-watch for a bit, being perfectly situated right in the main market place. It's not the cheapest coffee in town, but franchise prices are pretty standard across the board and it's worth it for a delightful experience and great coffee.

The coffees were terrific! The service was friendly and it was a very good value lunch!

The restaurant is sandwiched between a Good Earth shop and Good Earth grocer, so you can fulfil your veggie/vegan dreams before and after partaking of your meal. The selection of dishes is excellent. Quiches are simply magnificent and main courses at long last (and a rarity) demonstrate that vegetarian food needn't be a tasteless stodge, but can be stimulating, with a variety of interesting textures and a delicious combination of flavours. The restaurant (self service) gets very busy and it may not be easy to find a space but it's well worth a visit to complement your tour of this delightful city. Shame there aren't more vegetarian restaurants like this around.
