"Parked outside the delightful Die Werf for breakfast. And because this is apparently how villages function, we ended up chatting to everyone... Discovering it's quietly wonderful. 100% yes!! I will be back."

"An awesome addition to the area which adds so much value to the dorpie. Great place for a Toastie, Panini or a Tramazini with their homemade chips!"
