They do funeral catering as well as normal café facilities. Being unable to book the main on site venue I turned to the café and I'm so glad I did. At 10am a big room meal would have been inappropriate and being able to sit outside in the Courtyard Cafe's immaculate courtyard with fresh teas and coffees, so delicious home made cakes and bottles of water on hand was wonderful. My family happily looked at old photos and reminisced while eating and drinking with absolutely no 'hurry ups' whatsoever. The waitress came and did refills and handed round cakes, but we could get whatever we wanted and the cakes were LOVELY. Thank you, Sharon, and your team for taking the stress out of the after funeral for me and your costs were incredibly low compared to what it would have cost in the main venue, although obviously I would have happily paid that. I preferred the café setting, everyone was happy, thank you all.

Glad to see that this café has now re-opened. The lady in charge is very friendly, welcoming and helpful. I had a really nice Chicken Tikka sandwich with a mint sauce, side salad and crisps whilst the two ladies that I was with had toast and jam and a tea cake with jam and both were very impressed. This café isn’t like some others where you get the merest scrape of butter; these were properly buttered and with a small jar of nice strawberry jab. The two coffees and one tea were also excellent. Nice comfortable chairs too. I would strongly recommend this café to anyone visiting the Crematorium.

A delightful place to have a small wake. The food was excellently prepared and the staff were absolutely lovely. The price was very reasonable.
