A PLACE WORTH KNOWING

Look beyond the quay

Step back from Appledore’s quay for homemade cakes, light lunches and a leafy little garden behind an old village shop.

Appledore rewards a turn down its smaller streets, and Market Street Kitchen is a lovely reason to take one. Set in the former Boyles Stores, the café serves breakfasts, light lunches, cakes and cream teas, with a secret garden hidden behind the building. It offers a different rhythm from the waterfront: a table, a warm drink and a little time amongst the greenery. The garden is the detail that makes this stop feel like a find, particularly when the weather lets you linger outside. Come after a wander through the village, see what has been baked and let the rest of the afternoon stay pleasantly unhurried.

The lovely little details

  • Café in the former Boyles Stores.
  • A hidden garden behind the building.
  • Breakfasts, light lunches and cream teas.

SOMETHING TO LOOK OUT FOR

Keep space for a cream tea

A scone and a pot of tea are a natural fit for a pause in the garden.
