When it comes to beverages, The Cafe shines with a selection of Drinks that perfectly complement the food. Their rich, aromatic coffee is ideal for a morning boost, while the whisky selection is a must-try for any spirit enthusiast. Andrew Stenson lauded the experience, stating, “The coffee, wine, and soup were all lovely & fresh, and the whisky is amazing as you would expect from a distillery cafe.”
