An unpretentious, warm and friendly community centric eating place. Pleasant, welcoming indoor environment utilising tasteful pastel decor.
Ran by a local family, employing local people with a passion for good food and drink.
Highly recommend the secret smash with smoked salmon as well as the pastries and breads which are fresh from Eden’s Little Bakery.
It’s fantastic that this a truly dog friendly establishment. The handmade peanut butter based dog biscuits (while not to my taste 😆) are definitely to the taste of multiple dog friends I have brought here.
If you have no time to stop there is a barn door style service point in the car park where you can grab and go.
There is even a secret ice cream parlour!
It’s still early days and I’m excited to see how things develop.
I’ve seen a few comments about the cost of a few bits on the menu. Those comments are one dimensional and show a lack of understanding of the reality of operating a business in my opinion. If we judged value by the cost of a tea bag or the cost of some juice it’s really missing the point. Someone served you, a machine that needs to be paid for gave you the hot water, the building has overheads. A business naturally needs to generate a profit - this helps provide funding for growth, training, product development, people development, infrastructure investment etc. I’m always mindful that not all products carry the same margins; one item may make profit, another may be profit neutral or even generate a small loss - it really is the work of alchemy!

Adding genuine value locally does not come cheap;
Employing local people whose development is a key focus is worth paying extra for.
Using quality local ingredients, is worth it.
The investment in what was a run down council owned establishment is significant…and worth it.
A truly community centric ethos is also worth it.
I’d sooner pay a little extra (and it really is just a little) to support local. Costa and Co have their place however being truly local adds the most value back into the community and I’d rather see a local business do well than a national corporate entity that’s there to simply churn profit for shareholders.

I had *the most delicious* brunch and coffee at The Secret Garden. Everything done to perfection (with tons of avocado) on delicious homemade focaccia. What more could you want on a Friday morning? Thanks so much, can’t wait to come back to explore the rest of the menu.

Lovely hidden cafe with friendly service, good food and coffee. I had the smashed avocado with egg on sourdough and it was really tasty. Not busy on a Saturday morning.

This place offers a completely refreshing coffee and dining experience which I highly recommend. If you are looking for GREAT coffee and GREAT food flavours then this is absolutely the place to be. The decor is beautiful and well thought out, with cute details everywhere. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. For a new business in the area, this is a great start and I can't wait to see more of their plans. There is nowhere else like this in the area which I love x

Very pretty Café and mini plant nursery serving good coffee , pastries and sandwiches ( they just opened a few weeks ago and are also planning on expanding the menu soon) . You can get take away coffee in the front or sit and relax at one of their outside or inside tables overlooking their plant nursery display.
