Reviews For Forest Cafe & Bistro

Lovely classic style bistro with a varied large menu, large portions and great service. The prices are very reasonable and all four of us had more food than we could eat. Lovely selection of drinks too. We went on a busy Wednesday lunchtime but the service was super fast. Am looking forward to going back to check out the breakfast.

Lovely, friendly staff, great service and hot, delicious food. The Pash smoothie hit the right spot and our coffees were perfect. My (very fussy) partner enjoyed his vegetarian breakfast and I absolutely stuffed myself with a set 1 breakfast which was delicious I would totally recommended the place - even the toilets were spotless.
Super Duper

Decent food, generous portions, competitive prices and friendly staff. It's also nice and warm inside the restaurant on cold winter days. I've never had a bad experience in the many times I have been there.

Lovely local cafe. Free parking available right outside. Wonderful service. The food is good and reasonably priced. Very good selection of smoothies, I had the broccoli and the beast. It was much better than the ingredients made it sound. I also had the avocado and salmon with poached eggs. Beautiful presentation and tasted great too. My husband had halloumi with scrambled eggs and he liked his dish too. If you go for nothing else, go for the baklava. It is handmade and so good. Leave the ice cream though, I thought I tasted better without but that's my preference. I liked it so much I bought another 6 to go. I ate 4 of those 6. I'll definitely go back again.
