About

A family café on Crank Road

The Crank Café & Restaurant is a family-owned sit-in on Crank Road, in a stone building just off Main Street.

Come in for breakfast or lunch, a pot of tea, coffee, and something sweet. There’s a chalkboard over the counter with the cakes and drinks, and a dining room with a stone fireplace for a proper sit-down.

They look after private functions and outdoor catering too. Google lists the place as women-owned, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance. Updates are on Facebook — that’s their website.
