Lovely cafe with very nice coffee and a range of vegan, veggie and gluten free choices (as well as things for meat-eaters). The staff are fab, the garden is glorious and the whole place is child-friendly. Excellent mushrooms on toast.

The Wetherspoons is quite special - housed in the old cinema, it has loads of atmosphere (though no natural light unless you sit in the vestibule!). The food is like all Wetherspoons - reasonable and filling - but the staff and atmosphere as well as the enormous size and cosy wood fire make it a really good choice for a cheap eat or a family dinner. It also has a courtyard outside and free wireless.
