One of the most delightful and delicious little spots you can find. It's homey, personal and welcoming beyond anything else. There's one table everyone shares, and the food is prepared as fresh as possible right before your eyes. A real asset to the community, which you'll know because they welcome everyone they know by name. Judged by appearance from outside you'd skip past it, and that would be a grave mistake. Had deliveries for months and it didn't do justice to sitting in and chatting with the delightful folk inside. Run by a real village husband and wife combo, you really don't get this anywhere else. Wish I could give them 20 stars.

If I could give Cafe Bijou more than 5 stars I would. Always greeted with a smile and they’re amazing with my two children. Food is amazing and their iced coffees are so so good!! As for the review below - cafe bijou are dog friendly and the owners go above and beyond when it comes to hygiene- they would have washed hands before handling food or drinks.

Lovely Cafe. Always fresh top-notch food, absolutely fantastic owners who care massively for customer satisfaction and make you feel at home! Fab coffee and the food is the highlight meal of my weekend! Very good with Covid restrictions when they were in place and very good with hygiene, always careful regarding cross contamination when dealing with Vegan and Meat products. Lovely environment and always feel welcome here! I have often walked 3-4 miles with my mum to eat here and have made many happy memorys! thank you L & P!!

Went there this morning with my cousin for the first time and honestly the best sandwich I've had in a long time, with freshly baked bread that morning! Also the coffee was probably the best iv ever had! Reasonably priced lovely owner! Only one thing I could suggest would be for better signage for this awesome place be better known, walked passed the cafe twice without knowing it was there.
