Took a punt on this place as i had a craving for pancakes. Not disappointed, absolutely delicious! Parking can be difficult at busy times as its mostly on main road. A little gem with a good sized drink of tea.

The perfect place for a catch up with friends or a solitary naughty nibble. I just love Cafe Sorella, the food is tasty and well presented. I can definitely recommend the Cafe Sorella breakfast, the Sorella club sandwich and the soups. And the cakes? Well take your pick all yummy and VERY naughty! The coffee, however you take it, is great quality and there is also a good range of teas for those who are tea total. The staff couldn't be more friendly or more helpful. Service is prompt and efficient. There is always a smile and a cheerful greeting to welcome my visit. The decor is smart and contemporary without feeling cold and impersonal. Little ones are catered for with books and booster seats. What's not to like?? PS Get one of Glenda's famous scones to take home to keep the tasty vibe going!

The family run cafe caters to all tastes. BEST cakes, amazing salads, delicious pancakes & the coffee is perfection. Contemporary decor with lovely and friendly staff. Great key staples like quality breakfast along with weekly surprises and a varied menu. Worth going in every week just to see what is new . With parking right outside it's my fave hangout spot with the husband or the girls :-)

Amazing food, friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Desserts are amazing, outside seating with blankets if needed. If you haven't been yet, get yourself there. Also small selection of locally made Earings, bracelets and occasion cards. Great place to visit for just a coffee or Breakfast, or get the full lashings with lunch and a pudding. 5* Highly recommended. Also do takeout and afternoon teas & occasion platters. Perfect , relaxed and comfy seating indoors.

Cafe Sorella is the perfect place for a catch up with friends with beautiful food and cake. I've been here a number of times now and everyone is always so lovely and friendly and they can't do enough for you! I can never decide between the salads as they are all so nice so they even do half and half for me! Perfect location too, being just off the motorway. I'll be taking my little niece to try their children's afternoon tea in a couple of weeks and she can't wait!
