Great kids play space in a converted church. This is a very family friendly venue with a kids play space, so not your best bet for a coffee in peace! However, they take their food very seriously here – making their own bread and churning their own butter. If you want good wholesome food with some space for kids to roam, then this place fits the bill perfectly. https://www.facebook.com/ryebakeryfrome/
