Great coffee, great music, great food. Warm and friendly atmosphere. The sort of place you can hang out all day for the price of a cup of coffee. Great place if you're alone or with friends. Watch out though, we get very crowded on sunny days.
Free wireless internet
We have easy access to the Internet with free WiFi in our cafe.
Organic products
We have a huge range of herbal teas, fairtrade gourmet coffee, as well as freshly squeezed organic juices and smoothies.
All our milk is organic, too. Not to mention the wine and beer
Supporting Fairtrade
We are passionate about the environment and animal welfare so many of our products are organic or Fairtrade.
The food is all vegetarian, and there are vegan and gluten-free dishes, too.
Beautiful Popina tarts; vegetable lasagne; jacket potatoes; pies; vegetable and bean chilli with brown rice; hearty salads - that should give you a taster of the delicious food you can enjoy with us.

Surounding nature
It is undoubtedly one of the best spots in Richmond and you'll find people out in the garden all year round. Because we are right on the Thames Path, lots of people take a break from their walk and stop in for refreshments.
Local boats
We are also just by the embarkation point for boats to Hampton Court, and for boats that head to the city during the summer months.
