I did not hate. It is a very nice place run by the Church (volunteers) and it is beautifully clean and comfortable. The food was tasty and well served and they stuck to the distancing regs etc.

Saturday 12/1/19 :12.30pm. Another great baked tattie with coronation chicken and the 3 of us managed to eat the skin nae bother. I had a bite out of my grandaughter's lorne sausage on her roll and it tasted great .The sausage just melted in my mouth and was very tasty and the roll was in no way tough or chuch ,and the cakes all looked lovely - worth a visit. 37/4/25 Back in again after many yrs - it's open for charity 3 times and other activities run regularly & the former staff return to help out & remember to try Mary's homemade almond slice which I must state was heavy going SO in you go & enjoy some home baking & a coffee or a T

Wonderful gem of a place. Clean, comfortable and fresh environment. The food is wonderful and priced spot on as its quality ingredients. Staff are the nicest most helpful people who aim to make your visit perfect. With upstairs and downstairs seating, its perfect for those who prefer a quieter area away from the counter, customers for their shop, so upstairs is a great place to go. Downstairs is better for those with mobility issues. There's a wonderful gift and book shop inside with high quality products. The books are Faith based, from all Christian versions of the Holy Bibles to Testimony books, Cards, bookmarks and so much more including worship CDs. Even if you are not a person of Faith, its frequented by everyone who enjoys some good food served in comfortable surroundings served by wonderful staff who really look after you.

This is a wonderful place for great food and home baking just off Cow Wynd in Falkirk. Bright, spacious surroundings, and also a super gift shop with s wide range of goods. While sitting downstairs you can be having a coffee while admiring the large array of gifts for sale and it makes for a very pleasant browsing experience. Great atmosphere and definitely good value for money. Well earned five star experience.
