Wonderful, unique cafe. An absolute hidden gem. Retro, ship themed cafe/mini museum experience (even the loo is brilliant and not to be missed). The staff were so welcoming- Karen who served us was so attentive and Bob the owner made us feel so welcome and told us the history of the place and how it’s his retirement passion. Lovely coffee, cakes, afternoon teas and breakfasts. Wonderful atmosphere and artifacts. Not to be missed!!
WOW! We have never been anywhere like this before; UNIQUE! The Chart Room FIRST CLASS Coffee Lounge genuinely lived up to its name. It had us feeling like we were on a transatlantic liner, being treated like royalty (time travelling in the past!)
Fabulous food, all beautifully and creatively presented.
I kept losing my hubby as he wandered around the 'museum' and chatted with the friendly, knowledgeable owner and staff (he was so overcome with enthusiasm that I was surprised he didn't break into song, imagining he was part of the cruise entertainment!)
We will certainly be taking our young (over12yrs) and 'young at heart' guests appreciative of a top quality cuppa (not to mention homemade cakes and scones!) and up for a memorable experience!

Found by accident we popped in for a coffe but came out as changed man...when we got in i looked around and was like a cunard whitestar mini museum...then We met Bob the owner who used to work on the QE2.. i have worked on the QM2..so a long chat started!! Got to write my name on the wall too!!( all members who were member of any cunard ships can write their name on the wall!!!)
The place itself is just stunning with so many special features!!!( spoiler allert please go to toilet while you there!!!!)
The food and coffee is fantastic and the whole vibe is eye watering!!!if you like the ocean liner culture started with the Titanic, you must visit!!!!
