A coffee shop which has been praised as the 'best little cafe' in a Northumberland town marks its second year.
The cafe, which serves 'legendary cheese toasties', is celebrating another year of business since opening in March 2024.
Grant Cameron's business, The Garden Coffee House, has become a social media sensation for its iconic toasties, with customers describing them as 'the cheesiest in the North East'.
It's located on Hallgate Bank in Hexham, and customers have posted reviews on Tripadvisor and Google praising the 'lovely coffee shop' as a 'delightful spot for lunch'.
A Google review said: "The Garden Coffee House has an unhurried, easy atmosphere. I went for coffee and a ham-and-cheese toastie and have to admit the portion is impressively generous.
"If you’re not very hungry, or planning one main meal for the day, that alone will do. Properly cheesy, and easily shared between two," they said.
Another said they discovered the cafe through its 'fun socials' and visited it for the first time on a day trip from Scotland.
"We were not disappointed! A lovely welcome to a warm and buzzy room, dogs included. Vintage vibe, delicious soup and toasties. Reasonable prices. The bread comes from a local bakery, The Grateful Bread Bakery - excellent. All in all, a delightful place for lunch. We will go back," they said.
One customer said they had an 'unreal breakfast', adding 'lots of variety with drinks and food - insane cheese pull on the toastie too'.
It has been hailed as the 'best little cafe' in Hexham.
"Perfect little gem for a toastie and coffee. Staff so friendly and helpful. Toasties were filling and lovely."
