> A spacious cafe “hidden” from the main road. You wouldn’t noticed them if it wasn’t suggested by Google map. Overall, they have some great coffees., Rafa Loves Travel, a year ago
> I stumbled upon Ally & Sid while I was staying at an Airbnb nearby and it’s a beautiful little café, indeed! The coffee was excellent, and the baked goods all looked amazing, as well. I had a flat white and a muffin, warmed up with butter, and I was good to go for the morning… I hope to go back!, Dom D, 2 years ago
> You’d be stupid not to make this place your regular! By far the best coffee I’ve tried, a wide range or gluten and dairy free options (for if you’re difficult like me). Go there for the coffee or for the food, just make sure you go!! Cannot recommend this place enough!!! Keep up the amazing work guys ♥️, Dylan Bateup, 4 years ago
