This cafe is so cosy and warm. Not only the atmosphere of the cafe is great, the food as well. Everything I tried was great. The pies were the best I've eaten, they were nothing like the other cabinet food and pies I've tasted. Also, the coffee was very fresh. I had a superb time at this cafe with my husband.

Been dropping in most mornings for a coffee and the occasional cheese scone or lunch for the last 3 months. Owner is incredibly friendly, food fresh and the coffee is the best out of all the local places. If you live nearby grabbing a coffee here becomes the morning routine.

My favourite café I’ve been coming here every week for over a year now on one of my days off. I study languages in my free time, and this café’s relaxed atmosphere, great service, and delicious food and coffee keep me coming back. J Love also has the most amazing owner so I recommend the cafe whenever I can!!
