Rockface

The best place in Cheddar Gorge! Just steps away from the main road and gorge walk, it’s the perfect place to stop for ice cream, lunch or a cold drink! They even welcomed our dog and brought her a water dish after our walk. Would highly recommend!!!

Amazing service from Joanna and her team at Rockface cafe. Serving 100+ hungry and thirsty cyclists before they struggle up Cheddar Gorge on a Saturday morning is no easy task, but the service was slick, and the coffee and cakes were fantastic. They even opened early to accommodate us. Loads of outdoor space and a great location. We'll be back very soon.

Best place to have some hot food after walking around a lot in cheddar! You can hire e-bikes for low prices as well!

Awesome location very friendly staff and excellent service! Will return again excellent pit stop for a long ride!

Great place! Tasty food. Super nice owner. You can bring your own alkohol even

Great place for a coffee. Just far enough from the main run of the Gorge to be quiet and relaxing. Tables under a plant covered pergola and beautiful garden. Lovely view of the cliff faces. Friendly and efficient staff. A small but excellent menu with some catering for allergies

Amazing location - the perfect cycling pit stop in the gorge.
Coffee and cakes were delicious and the atmosphere is great. The finish and decor is top quality and the outdoor terrace is a sun trap with a wonderful view.
Friendly staff...the lad that served us made sure our water bottles were full up before we left.
Will definitely be back.

Well what a pleasant surprise, popped in on the recommendation from a friend and we were not disappointed. Had a "breakfast pizza" which was amazing, Italian ham, wild mushrooms and egg. Partner who is vegetarian had similar minus the ham with extra anti pasta. Coffee is one of the best in Cheddar, and very well priced. Very friendly and helpful staff. Dogs welcome. We will be back.

Very friendly owner and staff, excellent locally-roasted coffee and a nice view over the mill pond.

The owner invited our kids to feed the chickens and was very friendly, chatty and informative.

Most definitely recommend if you’re looking for somewhere to stop for refreshments and a bite to eat.

Lovely welcome and coffee. Refills are a big plus. Lots of like-minded bikers around.

Lovely settings in the garden. Went on a Monday and were served quickly. Scone is nice!

Went in with a couple of food intolerance and instead of no choices I had elsewhere the owner offered to make me a free from pizza. This was made even better by it being a whole pizza for £6!
Not only this but the whole feel of the place was brilliant. Lots of high quality food options with great ingredients (I know as I got talking to the owner) this was reinforced by the chickens out the back of the seating area. The owner then very kindly offered yo take my daughter to feed the chickens.
This, I am sure will prove to be a very popular spot to eat and drink and I am looking forward to visiting again.

Wonderful opening day - so pleased it’s finally finished. Enjoyed lovely coffee and cake outside. Fabulous staff - lovely atmosphere .... really hoping this super place does well. Just what Cheddar needs.😊
My grandson, Arthur was shown the chickens - it really made his day. Thank you! Deborah

really great and welcoming owner. I had the breakfast pizza which was fantastic and fresh. great to see a restaurant actively using as little plastic as possible. The eggs are great. Straight from the chicken :)

Absolutely loved this place when we popped in today. Staff so helpful and were great at doing me a gluten free baguette and as I couldn't eat the chutney they had, they did a lovely little salad dressing and I had some lovely vegan cheese and salad in my baguette.

Came for ice cream which was beautiful and really good value. Saw the pizza which looked amazing so we came again the following lunch time. The pizza was even better than it looked. Friendly staff. Highly recommend a visit!

Lovely view. Has bice shaded area's for dining. Ploughman's lunch and a pasty. Reasonable price and attentive service

This is an awesome local business with great coffee and great all round food. The owners and staff are really friendly and welcoming. Been here twice now, will become my local place when visiting cheddar.

I was in desperate need of a caffeine and carb top up after cycling over the Mendips — and Rockface didn't disappoint. Decent coffee and a really decadent flapjack both hit the spot and kept me going for the next 30 miles. Friendly service, very welcoming for cyclists. As a tourist trap I've found Cheddar's numerous cafes can be very hit and miss, but this one's definitely a hit. Will be back!

Friendliest cafe in the gorge
