A great location on Robinswood Hill makes this a perfect rustic stop for refreshments and a stroll on the hill's many pathways. We've been a number of times and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere. The cafe itself has adequate seating inside and a wooden veranda outside with a few tables giving nice views and shelter. You can buy drinks, snacks, ice cream and smoothies and there is plenty of play area outside for your kids. It is near to a large rural car parking area, so normally easy to park. Being only 2 miles from Gloucester City it is surprisingly quiet and rural - a nice way to escape the bustle.

Lovely cafe! I was served my a lovely girl with a smile on her face. Very helpful with allergens as I’m gluten free. They had gluten free bread for toasties, and some gluten free cakes. I had a really nice peach iced tea as well

A rather Spartan interior, partly compensated by a view of Gloucester Cathedral some 3 miles distant. It was not service with a smile or banter and the coffees and cake ordered, came up without the cake. We did notice some delicious-looking cornish Pasties being prepared for lunchtime, however! Access is fine for the disabled, with several car spaces and a ramp up to the entrance.
