Spectacular

Fantastic personal service from the Cuckoos crew. Went over and above to accommodate a confused order myself.
Delicious cupcakes, and smiles all around.
Many thanks Cuckoos

Lovely soup and scone

We got the leek and potato soup, cheese scone and a tea to take away. Everything delicious and server was friendly. We would have sat in but it was such a nice day we decided to sit at the links.
