Cosy, friendly coffee shop during the day and intimate, chilled out bar in the evening. A great place to sit and gaze at the world outside or meet a friend for a catch up. 🥰 The staff are the loveliest and really cool. 😎 The coffee here, dark woods is really good quality coffee. Very vegan friendly- but excellent choice for everyone. ☕️ Perfect little escape especially for those who like a little alt-vibe and want somewhere outside of the crazy bars to hang out. Cocktails are excellent. 🍹 Extra tip- bring a friend and pick one of the many board games from the book shelf and squirrel away in the upstairs room for a few hours with a warm cuppa!
I've been meaning to go in her for a long time but never had the chance and I'm a creature of habit so usually stick to places I know. This place came highly recommended from many people so today I decided to pop in and get a coffee. From the moment I walked in it was welcoming. Staff member is super lovely and got on very well with. All the customers that all seem like regulars were really nice too. The vibe was great and as a self proclaimed coffee snob, the coffee was so so nice. Best I've had in a very long time. Usually I need loads of sugar at other places but I only needed one in this place as the coffee was so nice and it didn't upset my stomach like some other places do. I loved coming here. Great drinks and prices. Great atmosphere. Great staff and customers. And it looks great and is welcoming. I highly recommend. I can see why it comes so highly recommend by alot of people I know.
Working on a bank holiday is never a pleasure but having great friends is a blessing. A couple a close friends pulled me out for a coffee and cake. A time to relax and rescue an hour of my day ha. A short walk up the high street and onto silver street which is so different during the day. The £2m improvements have transformed the street and I was already feeling the calm as we headed down towards Bone Idle Lounge We have travelled far and wide together and bone idle perfectly imitates a European coffee shop bar lounge. Sitting there I could have been sat in Utrecht. Krakow. Brugge many many places. I chose a black Americano and a Blonde brownie with chocolate chip. One friend chose a coke and a chocolate Chunk brownie, while the other had a rum and coke. My coffee was rich and flavoursome and complimented the sweetness of the blonde chocolate chip brownie. The brownie was moist and chewy but still quite light and not heavy. It was a descent size and for me there was just enough. Coffee Enjoyed thoroughly till the last sip ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Blonde chocolate chip brownie was soft chewy and full of flavour without being too heavy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service was excellent. The owner has a lovely mild mannered persona and speaks with a confident soft voice. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This place was like transporting away for those moments. Great for relaxing and chatting. Music plays softly in the background and ranges across various genres. Li fi jazz. Indie. Country. Blues. Naming a few. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The location is great. The short walk moves you away from the bustle of town and you are calm and ready to chill. Day time very close to the Corn exchange and the newly developed Wool market. Night time it is positioned in the heart of Doncasters hospitality industry with the Wool market and the European restaurants and takeaways one way and bars, Clubs and restaurants the other. Cannot wait to meet and relax with friends here on a night and soak up more of the atmosphere
Absolutely love this little gem of a place!💕 Staff are so lovely, vibes are always immaculate & it's never a bad time to visit. Love popping in early for a takeaway coffee on the way back from a trip to the market or meeting friends for a couple of drinks & some board games in the evening. Dog friendly too, so the pooch can come for a puppaccino & some pets from friendly strangers 🐾🐶
No food service so can't give stars. Amazing atmosphere, staff lovely and clean toilets. Superb freshly ground coffee. Recommended 👍 Thanks
