Did not expect to find a great little independent cafe like this today. Absolutely worthy of the great reviews. Our paninis with salad and freshly made coleslaw were delicious but oh.....the cakes!!!! So good with the excellent coffee. Hope to return soon.

Walnut Tree Junction Cafe is an absolute delight. The place has a cosy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay for hours. The environment is relaxed and charming, and the staff are incredibly polite, friendly, and always up for a nice chat which really adds to the warm atmosphere. Service is impressively fast, and although the menu is simple, every dish is packed with flavour and clearly made with care. One standout is the lemon drizzle cake topped with meringue, served with cream and fresh raspberries—an absolute must-try! It's so fresh and tasty, you can tell it's made with quality ingredients from the very first bite. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I recommend this place to anyone looking for a great cafe experience. A true local gem!

This is such a lovely cafe serving great tasting coffee. Unfortunately due to a food allergy I was unable to sample any food, but I would definitely return for the coffee, service and atmosphere. Lovely place
