We just took a chance on the woolen mill having a cafe and we were very pleasantly surprised. Couldn’t fault it. Salad for me, sausage roll for OH and cake and coffee to finish. Even had a water station

Reliables healthy and historic, what is there not to like? Wide selection of healthy options with some great pastries and deserts. The salad bar was wholesome and the sausage rolls were great. Our favourite was the back catalog of national geographic magazines for the kids to occupy themselves with. Nicest place around the whole area and worth a visit when u r in Mayo
