Reserved a table for late morning coffee. On arrival there no cakes or scones. Only two over-fired end pieces of lemon drizzle cake were offered still in a cake baking tin at £3 per piece. Waitress was at counter making scones which we were informed would be ready in approximately 20 minutes. Her manner was very offhand. We were then informed that the baker had just returned from holiday. We have eaten here many times in the past and always found the food and service to be excellent hence our return visit. We had a considerable wait for our tea and coffee and then at the point when we had almost finished we were informed by the waitress that the scones were ready! We ordered two but they wer...
we called in here looking for some late lunch. Judging by the sign outside, I wasn't expecting much, but how wrong was I ! Being the only place in town that would allow our dog in, and that was open, we decided to give it a try because we were so hungry. What a suprise to find homemade soup, served with homemade bread, a really tasty savoury crepe, great coffee, and friendly staff in a beautiful setting too! thoroughly recomend, well done ladies!
Beautiful, authentic Caribbean cuisine cooked fresh and absolutely delicious. It’s a build your own plate of deliciousness. We had coconut rice and peas with lamb, salsa, sauce and jalapeños, Absolutely lovely. A beer would have been nice but alas no license. The chef spoke to us and the waitress was lovely. Be prepared for a short wait as everything is cooked fresh to order but it is certainly worth the wait.
Came here to visit the museum and have a light lunch. The museum great .....the cafe appaling . Not a clue service wise , over an hour for a scone...dont even bother go elsewhere . They do not seem to have any system in place whatsoever, brought 3 lots of tea to the same table, chap waited an hour for his simple but nice bowl of soup, God help them if they ever get busy....

Situated in the wonderful Timespan local museum, Helmsdale we had the most wonderful lunch today. With a Caribbean theme we had the most fantastic special of smoked haddock with accompaniments. Just amazing Thank you. Beautiful setting also by the river. Lovely staff too. Wish I was there for the Friday night Caribbean evenings!
We came across this place whilst walking around Helmsdale. There was a wait for our food. However, it was obviously cooked fresh and it showed. Beautifully presented and delicious. The best soup I've had in ages! Really friendly and very reasonable prices. Definitely drop by when we holiday up here again.
We made a quick stop for a cup of tea on our way home along the A9. The tea was delicious and we also enjoyed some tasty crepes and homemade baked goods, served by friendly staff. The restaurant had a beautiful view of the river and even a friendly dog outside.
It was definitely worth the wait. Even though the server was busy on his own, we still received excellent service with a smile. The food was fresh and delicious! We will definitely be returning.

Friendly service and totally amazing food, fresh, organic you could almost taste the love put into the food. The culinary highlight of our trip so far
Don't expect quick service, but be prepared for tender and flavorful Caribbean cuisine. The chicken was outstanding. A true hidden gem.
