Amazing Menu!! - Edit
We initially went to have a look around the antique place. As we approached the door,the cafe menu was in the door. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw they had a separate vegan menu. Which ,if you're a full blown VFTA,you know how disappointing it can be when there's absolutely [censored] all on offer. So,after a look around the antique centre,we had a very delicious light lunch. See the photos. There are even vegan options on the specials board,another first for us. My partner and I had an open sandwich. An extremely tasty salad,with vegetables,served on a thick slice of olive bread. I don't know what was in the dressing,but the combination of flavours was delicious! You know when you find a little gem,and it doesn't matter where you live, you'll make the effort. This is definitely a place we will re visit. They even offer a loyalty card,which they keep,so you can just get it stamped when you visit again. The staff were lovely, attentive but not in your face. We felt welcomed and satisfied after our meal. It was also nice to order drinks that we weren't over charged for,just because we had oat milk. This place is well worth a visit,the antique centre and the cafe are a perfect place to have a good mooch around and then relax and have a bite to eat. It's definitely not over priced and the portions are just right.

Lovely food and loads of options - Edit
Staff are really friendly and helpful. The outside is full of beautiful flowers, so would recommend booking an outside table in summer, as it can get busy. Loads of vegan options to choose from. Food was delicious, will be coming back.

Amazing food and location! - Edit
Lovely location as part of the antique centre. On warm days you can sit out in the courtyard. The best thing though is the meals. All the food is freshly prepared and is delicious. There are always vegan options (including desserts). I have been here a number of times and the quality of the food is always amazing. If you are in the area then definitely go and visit. You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful food and lovely setting - Edit
We've been here a number of times for breakfast and lunch (including Christmas lunch). The food is amazing. There are lots of vegan options and they're always imaginative (not your run of the mill type stuff). Only negative is the tricky wheelchair access (you either have to go over the cobbled courtyard or into a back door (opened by staff as it's a fire exit) approached over rough ground). Apart from that it's brill and highly recommended!

Visited only once, but will definitely be back again - Edit
A hidden gem in a wonderful setting.
Read moreThe menu changes seasonally and is built around on local ingredients, so not everything is always available. This was also the case during our visit and the chef herself came to discuss possible vegan options for us, what was so nice and respectful.
While the menu seems simple, don't be fooled. This was one of the best dishes I have eaten in years. I order a burger with a salad and the whole dish was amazing. The quality of the ingredients is the highest quality and the way the chef seasoned the dish was out of this planet.
The dessert was just as delicious, the service was very polite and friendly and the prices for such great food are really fair.
If I would live closer, I would like to eat at the Crew Yard bistro every day.
Pros: Amazing food, Lovely staff, Local ingredients

First visit ic - Edit
I couldn’t have any of the vegan options as I can’t eat soya however the chef came out to me Jackie and said I’ll cook you something up I was instantly reassured and said I’ll leave it with you. What came out was the best vegan lunch I’ve ever had absolutely gorgeous and if I could leave a 5 star rating I would have done so. Teri the waitress was amazing also top marks all round 👌🏼

Fantastic food - Edit
We went on Friday for their Can’t Believe it’s Vegan night and we were treated to an incredible spread of gorgeous food. It was to launch their vegan takeaway and catering services and they absolutely smashed it. Great variety of food, wonderful flavours and an abundance of it all. A fantastic night.

Great service - Edit
Visited here after reading about it in a Facebook group. They have a separate vegan menu with a good amount of options. The chef came to my table to discuss whether I had any other dietary requirements as well as being vegan, and also explained about the dishes they offer. I opted for the avocado and garlic mushrooms on toast and it was delicious. They offer sourdough or ciabatta for vegans. They are also running a vegan evening soon as well as setting up a weekly vegan takeaway service. I visited on a warm day and sat out in the courtyard which was delightful, really quiet and comfortable. There isn’t a lot of vegan choice in this area so it’s wonderful to see a business take a real interest in catering for vegans and doing it so well😄Impressed and will be back for sure!
