“Lovely little place, I had the vegan bagel which was super tasty and fresh, and an oat milk latte which was top tier, the customer service was great and I loved the local atmosphere and all the little dogs in there, I picked a good place to stop on my journey, well worth it! Big car park right by it where you can park in too if you’re just grabbing a take away like me.”

I am so glad that this place exists in Ringwood! It has such a fresh energy. Coffee beans 5 stars. Food 5 stars. The store feeling 5 stars. Staff 100 stars. It is such a nice place to have a quiet moment and do some work (there is free strong wifi) or meet up with a friend. I cannot wait to make this my regular place when I am down here. A beautiful and lovely small business that needs more recognition. The food is exceptional and homemade and one of the big selling points for me.

Excellent coffee and a range of lunchtime snacks and cakes. Most importantly, dogs are welcome. The staff and owners always greet you will and smile and a cuddle for your dog.

I love the casual, friendly atmosphere where food & coffee are affordable & great quality. Delicious homebaked cakes, savoury pastries, & the best sausage rolls in town are a real treat. Gluten-free options are also available. Frankie & Teresa are always welcoming & friendly. I love the colourful side salads & the variety of ciabatta fillings available. Mums, solos & couples enjoy meeting up, pet lovers are clearly at home bringing their dogs along & enjoy the attention they get. Love the warm atmosphere created by the community who are regulars.

I visited with my daughter yesterday....this is my new favourite coffee shop! It's small but very cute. We both had French toast with berries and maple syrup, it was lovely. Lovely staff, super friendly. Dog friendly too 🐾 Will definitely return.

“Went here for brunch and the service was incredibly quick and friendly. The food was really flavorful and came out quick too. I had the korean eggs that had soft and fluffy scrambled eggs in it. For my personal taste, I asked for extra kimchi and it really elevated the dish. The cumcumber was fresh and added some much needed crunch and the fresh peppers were a lovely highlight to really round out the dish. Lots of flavors and all of them worked together beautifully. Friends got the pharoahs eggs and toasted tea cake. Both were yummy (according to them) and made perfectly. We had lots of tea and coffee between us that they kept up topped up on. The cakes display was beautiful. We had oreo and vanilla cheesecake, pear and almond tart, and a chocolate walnut cake. We accidentally overstayed as we were catching up but the staff was really gracious about it and very friendly. Would recommend going repeatedly!”

“This is a little gem of a place! We sat outside in the sun and ordered several items off the menu. The team were all charming and helpful and the food was fast and tasty. The farmers plate, shakshuka and brioche breakfast buns were all fabulous. The smoothies were perfectly balanced - not too sweet and the cakes are 10/10. Our new fave spot! Be sure to get there before the kitchen closes at 3!”

We tried their mocha and flat white which was so good, the brownies were delicious. We had breakfast as well, french toast, pancakes and shakshuka all were tasty.”

“Peace and quiet. If that is what you want then this is the place for you. The cottage and gardens are well kept and immaculately clean. The mill is run by a lovely couple Richard and Sandra and is open for cream teas Saturday and Sunday. I can recommend the cream teas as the scones are the lightest I've ever tasted, made with their own flour. The only reason I did not give 5 * is that the lane is very busy with no footpaths so consequently could not go for a stroll anywhere. Also the wifi is sporadic”
