Amazing food. Hygiene score you can forgive.
The food slaps and hygiene is "Good" — not perfect, but nothing to worry about. Go for it.
The Buttery Cafe & Riverside Gardens is like that quaint little spot you stumble upon while out for a walk, and you’re glad you did. Joji Mathew found it to be a hidden gem near a national trust property, perfect for a pit stop on a day out. Kevin Johnston enjoyed the peaceful vibe, especially when the staff took a break to strum some tunes on the guitar.
But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. While many rave about the lovely teas and cakes, MJ Moore had a bit of a rough experience with her order. If you’re after a scenic break with decent bites, it’s worth a stop, but keep your expectations realistic — sometimes it’s just okay.
"Buttery cafe is located close to car park."
"The staff were very pleasant."
"Excellent tea, cake, and savory bites!"
