The Cow Shed Café

Highlight • Cafe

A lovely little cafe in a great location. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating but gets very busy and often is full. Bikes can be left in the outdoor seating area in view of the cafe. Indoors it is nice and cosy with a large fire in the centre. There is a great selection of drinks, cakes and other food, including plenty of gluten-free and vegan options. They also do loyalty cards for the drinks so you can claim a free drink after filling in 10 drinks.
