About this space

Ginette French Café is a compact French-style café occupying the whole venue, defined by a long counter-service layout.

Design: The interior pairs high ceilings and exposed ducting with white-painted walls, timber tables and simple pendant lamps, keeping the layout uncluttered and easy to move through.

Features: The venue provides a staffed coffee and food counter serving French pastries, crêpes, toasties and fresh juices, alongside a small bar stocking beer, wine and spirits. The space includes a PA system and speakers, permits own music, supplies Wi‑Fi and air conditioning, and enforces a noise restriction. The venue is wheelchair accessible with accessible toilets and a step‑free entrance, and dogs are allowed indoors.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking a relaxed, social setting for seated service or informal standing gatherings.

What sets it apart: A patterned, vintage-style tile-front service counter runs the length of the room and serves as a clear visual focal point.

What guests say: The space delivers a cosy, French-kitchen ambience and notable natural light. The venue's service is welcoming and attentive.
