Museum Café

About Museum Café

Tucked into the old railway station at the end of a short walk from the Main Street, this is one of those finds that works better with children than you'd expect — the platform seating is covered, so you can sit outside in the rain while little ones watch the craft shops and museum building. Buggy access is straightforward, there are high chairs and a kids' menu, and the toilets get singled out as spotlessly clean, which matters more than it should. Staff are warm and remember regulars' orders. The lemon meringue pie has a following, the Megaburger is a proper plateful, and portions on the hot meals are sensible rather than showy. Prices are fair, though not every cake is homemade and the museum itself is a separate £5 that families have found underwhelming — the café stands on its own.
