Any dog owner knows that visiting a dog-friendly cafe is going to be extra special when the staff acknowledge your dog before you! When we walked through the door here, the staff were all over Puzzle (our pooch) and fussing her like she was the best thing they'd seen all year. We knew we were in for a good pit stop then.

These also know a thing or two about great coffee. In fact, they rather audaciously informed us they're trying to serve the very best espresso in Eastbourne, and do so using Cannon Coffee beans – an award-winning roastery. We had a fantastic coffee, so we think they're achieving their aims!
