festive opening hours click here

Coffee. Cake. Brunch.
At The Paddle, we open early — 8am (9am Sundays) — with locally roasted coffee, homemade cakes, and freshly cooked breakfasts.
We love working with local suppliers like Meggy Moos Dairy, Bad Hand Coffee Roasters, and Danstream Farm Shop to bring you honest, flavourful food made right here on the premises.
Relax inside with a comforting hot chocolate, a loose-leaf tea, or even a little tipple.
Families and friendly dogs are always welcome.

This weekend didn’t start how we hoped, but we just wanted to say a huge thank you 💛

To everyone who reached out, shared kind words, and checked in, it really means so much!
And to our amazing team for holding the fort down (and still managing to serve great coffee through it all) ☕👏

It’s moments like this that remind us why we love what we do- the community, the people, and this little place we call home!

From the first slice to the final garnish, every dish that leaves our kitchen gets the same care, time and attention.

Say hello to our new Head Chef, Adam 👨‍🍳✨

Adam’s been part of The Paddle family for a while now – working his way up from Sous Chef to now leading the kitchen. If you’ve ever been in when he’s on shift, you’ll know he’s plating up some seriously good food.

Outside of the kitchen, you’ll probably find him chasing his fitness goals – but inside, he’s the reason so many of your favourite dishes come out just right.

Huge congratulations, Adam – we’re lucky to have you in the team 🤩

Breakfast really does live up to its name… Skipping it might seem harmless, but the science says otherwise. Here’s a few reasons why you shouldn’t miss our FAVOURITE meal of the day…

✨ Energy & metabolism – After 8–12 hours of sleep, your body needs fuel. A balanced breakfast jump-starts your metabolism and helps maintain steady energy levels.

🧠 Concentration & focus – Studies show that people who eat breakfast perform better in memory and attention tasks. It’s why that first meal is often linked with productivity.

⚖️ Blood sugar balance – Eating in the morning helps stabilise blood glucose levels, which prevents those mid-morning energy crashes (and sudden cravings).

🥑 Appetite control – Breakfast eaters are less likely to overeat later in the day, supporting healthy weight management.

🌿 Nutrient intake – Breakfast is the perfect opportunity to add fibre, protein, fruit, and wholegrains to your diet – nutrients many of us miss out on otherwise.

😊 Mood & wellbeing – Food in the morning can reduce irritability, help regulate hormones, and improve overall mood throughout the day.

❤️ Long-term health – Regular breakfasts are associated with lower risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and even better overall diet quality.

So whether it’s a stack of French toast, a bowl of oats, or just your favourite coffee with some toast – making time for breakfast is one of the simplest ways to look after yourself.

Saturday mornings are for brunching right – and this weekend’s your last chance to try our current specials 👀

From our Prawn Burger to that dreamy Strawberry French Toast… once they’re gone, they’re gone.
What’s the one dish you have to get one more time?

Nutella lovers… this one’s for you 🍫

Our Nutella frappe is smooth, creamy, chocolatey perfection – blended ice-cold and topped with all the good stuff. Basically, dessert in a cup.

Weekends taste better like this.
