The Stirrup Cup

This is like home from home. I was at a vets a few mins around the corner & had 4 hours to kill. I had travelled 60 miles to get there & asked if there was anywhere near by that I could get a coffee. I was directed to Stirrups. Arriving tired starving disorientated & quite stressed after a long drive in the snow with a very sick animal in the passengers seat. I ordered a fat fry up for breakfast which was amazing & a coffee which was superb. They even do Gluten free (I'm allergic just to extra awkward) BUT WHAT STANDS OUT (apart from the food & spot on coffee) was the staff & service. Amber who was behind the bar was so so lovely not only offering top service but also asked about my animal at the vets, stopping for chat gave me WiFi password & offered such kindness & compassion that it genuinely made me feel so much better. The staff put the heating up for me & gave me a nice spot by a radiator as it was freezing which was so so nice of them. My only other option was a waiting room or the car for 4 hours not nice in 1 degrees! Kindness is such a rarity in the world that we live in. Thankyou staff at Stirrups & especially Amber for you hospitality & kindness, compassion & smile.
