The Art of Scones

Celebrating a Great British tradition!

Tucked away on the rugged Exmoor Coast of North Devon lies the charming town of Lynton, a picturesque escape that boasts not only stunning views but also a hidden gem for food enthusiasts – the North Coast Cafe.

It’s here that the British tradition is being celebrated with a delightful twist, thanks to the café’s latest collection: an exquisite new scone menu that is tantalising the taste buds of locals and visitors alike.

Mrs. Beeton, a doyenne of home cookery, once said, “The sweetness of jam and the richness of cream elevate the humble scone from mere pastry to a delightful luxury.” 

At North Coast Cafe, these words are the embodiment of their scone-making philosophy. Each handcrafted scone is a testament to Neal’s dedication to bringing a touch of luxury to every bite.

A Scone for Every Tastebud!

Whether you’re a devout traditionalist or a seeker of new tastes, the North Coast Cafe’s menu caters to all. Morning, noon, or sunset, it’s always the perfect time to indulge in one of their handmade delights.

Begin with the basics but with a refined edge. Choose from a plain scone or its gluten-free fruit variant and pair it with the rich clotted cream and an array of homemade preserves.

Blueberry Jam

Black Cherry Conserve

Lemon Curd
