Coffee Shops & Light Meals
Are you a coffee shop fanatic, or just like your caffiene fix? Coffee shops are all over the place at the moment and often choice is difficult. If you’d like more than coffee and cake or a snack, or want something stronger to drink, or want something on the run, then have a look at the Restaurants, or the Pubs & Bars, or even Takeaways.
NB: All menus and prices are subject to change but are kept up-to-date where possible. Please use them as guides only.
The list is not complete, but we are busy updating (Dec 2011)!
