Great little coffee van beside cushandall caravan park. Lovely staff. Keep up the good work.

Utterly delicious cakes/bakes on offer, and lovely coffee too. Really glad they were open on day of Queens Funeral as everywhere else was shut! Beautiful place to stop and chill out while doing the coastal route.

North Coffee is fantastic with rocky road tray bake after scuba dive. Looking forward to my next North Coffee. ( hint wee bacon sandwich would work too)

A great surprise on our journey through N. Ireland. It has been a while since enjoying a coffee (decaf) had to indulge here.

Amazing coffee and service. Great atmosphere Lovely views on top!!! DO NOT MISS to stop by!!!!

Can’t tell you how much I love this place! When we visit twice a year, it’s one of my daily stops on my walks around Cushendall. Their iced coffees are delicious and their flat white is the best I’ve had since my visit to Australia. Their cake balls (as called by us Americans) are delicious and a must try. Highly recommend and look forward to my next visit!

It's a pity I didn't do photos of the cakes as I was thinking in eating my caramel square lol
