I absolutely love this coffee shop. Rachael and Steve the owners are always very friendly and welcoming. Takeaway only at the moment due to covid - had a lovely takeaway cream tea. Enjoyed the very fresh sweet and savoury scones. Can't wait until we're able to sit inside again and relax in there, enjoying the many other lovely things on the menu. Here's my picture from another day when I just had a tea. Lovely day. Lovely tea.
Many thanks to Steve and the team at the bucket and spade who always make us feel welcome , it's normally at half way stop off for our weekly walk but we're parking closer and staying longer , they have a great choice of food and drinks at a very reasonable price, with comfortable sofas and tables for bigger groups ( dogs included) . We came for a tea and a rest but now it's tea , toasted pannis and a slice of cake . Many thanks to all at the Bucket and Spade. definitely see you soon
This place is a little gem. The atmosphere is so friendly and relaxed. The place is always spotless. Comfortable seating. The food is delicious, especially the cakes. Great variety of drinks. The range of hot chocolates, coffee and milkshakes are huge. The winter mint hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows is divine. The prices are very reasonable and competitive. I highly recommend this place.

I had the cheddar and chorizo panini. Parents had bacon and cheese toastie and a pests and cheese toastie. Very delicious and freshly made. Great selection of cold.and got drink as well as ice cream and cakes.
