I’m new to Lewes as I’m visiting. I’m also a coffee shop aficionado. So, as I’d done nearly all the coffee shops in town I did a Google search for my last one and try somewhere different. I found this place via the excellent reviews, but being by the station I was curious if they were true. I can wholeheartedly agree with everyone else! The coffee here is most definitely the best tasting, but the service from Delina was impeccable! Kudos to the team for creating a good space to switch off and watch the world. And I’ve been to a lot of coffee places around the world!

Popped in for a hot chocolate which was perfect. Very polite and friendly lady. Hard to find good service these days. Will definitely go back and recommend.

Really good strong coffee. They serve a double unless told otherwise. Prices are reasonable. I've been to a few places in Lewes for coffee and I think that theirs is the best tasting. Lovely staff, they've always been polite and friendly. Nice atmosphere. Probably one of the best "railway station" cafés I've been to.

Popped in here when changing trains to grab a lunch on the go. Had a very nice coronation chicken bagel and even got to choose between three different bagel types. Great value with friendly service too. Highly recommended

Beautiful, Cute, small cafe. It's close to station and have most of hot and cold drinks. I have had a hot chocolate and a cup of cappuccino, really enjoyed it over here. One can sit, while waiting for the train. Don't forget to ask for ice cream scoop if you are ice cream lover.
