First is the Bakehouse Barista in the village hall at Foston, near Long Bennington. Currently open for takeaway on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays 10-30 to 2-30.
I’ve seen reports of a new cafe opening soon in Orston, called The Pavillion. No further details as yet.
The Pavilion is at the Sports Ground on Spa Lane as you head out towards Alverton. A community cafe but not open yet.
I’ve heard (from Steve Perkins) that Kingfisher Cafe is re-opening again soon. I’ll see if I can get out there to confirm.
We went to the Bakehouse Barista last weekend. Very nice - excellent sausage rolls but Brian and Dave went the next day and said the service was very slow as they were busy.
Confirmed that Kingfisher is open 7 days a week from 8-3. Initially for takeaway only, but their outside seating will be open from 12th April and inside seating open from 17th May.
Gannets have also opened a new cafe called Gannets Middlebeck. It is down Bowbridge Lane before you get to the new southern by-pass. Paul and Sue went there recently. Take away at present of course.
We went to the new Gannets at Middlebeck last Sunday. Very busy and very slow service - we waited half an hour for our tea and 50 mins for our food to come out. It’s probably OK for a weekday stop but best avoided on a Sunday.
