Grounds Café, Birches Valley

Highlight • Cafe

Fantastic little cafe. Lots of seating indoors and outdoors. Plenty of bike parking and bowls for dogs at all outside tables. Food was delicious with a range of options for everyone.

Would personally recommend the onion bahji wrap but other choices look great too. Ice cream servings seem pricey but are very generously portioned.
