    The Billiard room was quite a surprise old panelled walls and stained glass. Comfy armchairs and sofa. The other side is the main cafe with view of the lake. Quite busy and may be a bit of a wait. The coffee was nice. Toilets are really nice and clean.

    Possibly the worst cup of coffee I have ever had, tastes cheap, and like they have used 1/4 of a spoon, better off getting one from a vending machine. The mobile unit they had when the tea room was under construction made a decent coffee. Ended up chucking it away. Don't waste any money in the cafe, instead bring your own In a flask and enjoy the abbey.
