"Vegan options included soup and also a vegan haggis toastie. Soup was great, toastie was delicious. Non dairy milk available. Coffee was absolutely amazing, best flat white I’ve had in rural Scotland by a LONG way. Barista knew his coffee. Also super helpful and friendly and recommended us a great walk."

"Really gorgeous wee coffee shop! We only live in Tarbert but wanted a drive out somewhere on the Kintyre peninsula for a walk & a coffee shop treat & we are so happy to have found this gem. The coffee was such good quality - they know what they’re doing. The service was friendly & attentive & the sandwiches yum too. Next time we’ll try the cakes. Really happy to support this little business. (So happy it’s open on Mondays too when so many places are closed!)"

Really nice atmosphere in a lovely setting, dog and walker friendly with parking in front and rear."
