We went to the cafe for a hot bowl of soup, ended up having coffee and some toast. :) The place has a old and slow charm to it. Very welcoming staff and good selection of cakes and coffee! Pro tip: go a little before 1 to enjoy the much talked about fresh soup!

The best coffee and cake in Douglas, possibly the Isle of Man. Saturday for cheesecake is the highlight but their cake cabinet is worth a skeet any day.

Let’s get the most important out of the way. The coffee is excellent, and they have an assortment of homemade cakes and cookies. But what brings this coffee place to the very top is the exceptional friendliness of the staff there. It feels like a place locals hang out. It comes with my highest recommendations.

Owner jumps to conclusions and is biased despite being a customer over 20 years has decided no longer requires my customerage based on one incident and a complaint from a customer sat next to me about being loud as the person I bumped into at shop by accident is a loud person and we were discussing his Asian travels during winter and his Cambodian girlfriend whom he'd like to marry and settle on the Isle of Man.Bad reviews and my photos bring attraction of the wrong kind! Sarah the owner even had as little tact as possible in informing me the day after the complaint by telling me thereof in the middle of Strand Street opposite The Bohemian Coffee Shop ( highly recommended)to the extent that I was publicly embarassed.

Great place for coffee, but even better got home made cakes and biscuits! The early bird however gets the best cakes, they are liable to sell out quickly. Lots of space downstairs, including a comfortable sofa if upstairs is busy.

Very good filter coffee - much more better quality than from any of the chains. The best selection of fresh homemade cakes on the Island and a very good service. There is a second sitting area downstairs.

Fantastic place to relax with delicious coffee 💞 staff is absolutely amazing, super kind and friendly. Whole vibe is just wonderful

One of the oldest coffee shops in the Isle of Man and one of the best. Wide range of homemade cakes.

Cakes are absolutely gorgeous and delicious mmmmmm. Ladies are very friendly 👌

Excellent tea, coke, cake and friendly welcome

Popped in for a tea and a coke as needed a drink, dog friendly, friendly staff

Went several times during our stay and always impressed by the staff and the food and drink. Wish it was nearby to go more often

Bought an Americano and two cookies (salted caramel and muesli incase you were wondering) to go. Spot on. Will definitely sit in when I have more time.

Proper place to go for a good brew and cake.

Amazing customer service and staff always up for a chat. All food made in hous3 and can't be beaten!

Excellent coffee and cakes, very friendly

What makes this place special for me is the staff. They are always smiling and so pleasant..it makes it a place you want to come back to again and again. Great coffee and lovely homemade cakes, quiches and soups. The atmosphere is always relaxed even when the ladies are mega busy.
