The best toasted sandwich. Proper ham off the bone, and the cheese was fabulous. Very friendly staff who suggested an alternative tea instead of my normal Earl Grey. The Rose fusion was really good

I had lunch here with My 3 children. Each child had a cheese sandwich kids meal and I had a cheese and ham toastie with a latte. The bread was lovely and fresh on all sandwiches, milkshakes were delicious (I pinched a sip of each one to try them) latte was yummy, and the taostie was cooked just right with thourghly melted cheese. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, and we even had a little giggle. The children and I used the toilet (including going back later in the day) and it was just fine, absolutely nothing wrong with it. A lovely relaxed cafe, we will definitely visit again!

We needed a nice warming drink and Y Caban looked inviting from the street. Inside the staff were friendly and the coffee and cakes were delicious. We even got a complimentary crepe to taste! The tables were clean and divided as per the Covid regs. Definitely recommended for anyone passing by needing a coffee in a relaxed environment.

A lovely young member of staff was very helpful and accommodating when I left a pair of glasses on the table. Sophia very kindly returned them to me as I was leaving. Great service and great atmosphere!

Had a lovely holiday staying about an hour outside of town. Popped in to explore and were wowed by this little gem. Great atmosphere, delicious crepes and good coffee. Cinnamon and butter was especially good. Was happy to see that it was also a decent price. Was so good that we came back a second day. And we're tempted a third but had to resist for the sake of out expanding waistlines!
