A large family owned cafe which caters for a wide variety of customers in the centre of Ringwood, independent and not associated with Marston's. It is a large establishment in a former general store, spread over 2 floors and including an extension at the back. Access is from the high street and the road behind which leads to the modern main shopping area. No car park or garden, but there is a small outside terrace at the back with benches and tables. It's a pleasant place to visit, with cheery young staff and a convivial - if rather noisy - atmosphere. They serve restaurant style food, plus Sunday lunches, at high prices for the area. Their drinks are similarly expensive. No real ale and only one 'craft' ale, Meantime IPA, dispensed from an adapted saxophone. Other keg offerings were Amstel, Pride, Cornish Orchards cider, Guinness, Peroni, Asahi and Jumel Peach Beer. An entertaining place to visit but the high prices and lack of real ale make it a low priority for me.
