We came across this lovely place on our first visit to Sherborne. What a find! Fabulous and very interesting building with a cafe, beautiful shop, bar and art gallery incorporating an art school. We had lunch here and it was delicious. The staff are really lovely and efficient. The building is also dog friendly. We will definitely be back!

What an interesting find. Antiques and other items displayed without the creepy feeling you get in some antique marts. The cafe is a real treasure - situate in this lovely old building. Good coffee, cakes and friendly, efficient service.

A cosy nook hidden at the end of town. The service is always great. Interesting lunch options and lots of homemade cake. They’re even licensed. There are several rooms attached with beautiful furniture and decor for sale making it a perfect place to spend a few hours, I’ve been lucky enough at times to nab the chairs by the log burner on cold day.

Incredible in every way. The building is stunning, the cafe staff are a delight from the welcome through to service and the food is second to none in Sherborne. The cocktail nights are also really fun, I can't recommend this venue enough.
