Bread and Roses is a great place! I go there every week with a friend for lunch. The staff are unfailingly kind and helpful. There is no sense of rush. Fabulous value for money too. Very affordable. Everyone is welcome and accommodated. I can't speak too highly of it.

Great vegan options. Lovely vegan scones. Good value. Nice service. Even though my dog couldn't come inside so we sat outside, she was treated wonderfully with a blanket, treats and fuss. We will be back.

A wonderful friendly cafe with home cooked food and very reasonable prices. They are a community cafe and will be doing lots of free clubs and hubs for the local community. They have a really wide range of food choices as well.
