the outside of the Daily Scoop cafe

We hadn’t eaten at the Daily Scoop since it changed hands so we thought we’d try it, and are very glad we did!

The food was gorgeous, and plenty of it

lunch rolls and tea etc

I was pleased to see that they use actual leaf tea….producing a proper cup of Earl Grey!

I got very full, but then I saw this…

muffin with cream topping

….and I ate that too!  Wouldn’t you?

The lunch trade was brisk, and each table was cleared and cleaned as soon as the diners left

There was also a steady stream of folk waiting to be served with ice-cream – not surprising – all those flavours!

I like the details – old prayer chairs painted up and re-used

The tables have been re-varnished, but the groovy marks I’ve noticed previously are still there

Thoroughly recommended!
