What an absolute gem this cafe is. I visited numerous times whilst on holiday for cooked breakfast & was so impressed by the quality of the food, the friendliness of the staff and being able to eat my breakfast & watch the activities around the airfield. The cafe is dog friendly too which means I could enjoy some time there with my dogs, rather than get a takeaway. The cooked breakfast is really tasty, cooked to order & very filling. They make their cakes etc on site & I tried the shortbread & the flapjack & they were both generously portioned & very nice. I love finding places like this & it gives me a good reason to return to the area for another holiday.
A Great Place to visit and watch all the comings and goings of light aircraft and skydivers. Everyone was in a happy mood, and the coffees and breakfasts were decent for a reasonable price.
Just enjoyed a very nice breakfast on a wet and windy day.Very friendly,as usual.
Great cafe on the edge of Dunkeswell airfield. Lots of space inside and benches outside to sit and watch planes and skydivers. We've not had a meal but the food looks good and the cakes are huge!
We went to the Aviator to have their Mega Breakfast. Everything about our visit was outstanding. The food was absolutely delicious. Fresh, extremely tasty produce and cooked to perfection. The staff were fantastic, the restaurant atmosphere welcoming and the rest rooms were immaculately clean and fresh smelling. Would not hesitate to highly recommend, thank you for a great start to the day
We had a lovely time here, didnt see many planes taking off but there was a helicoptor flying about. Lovely big cakes and ncie coffee - I love the fact the staff recognised my friend Alfie who is a regular there which make him feel loved - well done team thanks a million
What a Gem - we arrived early waiting 4 my mum & her partner we decided to have a Latte & black tea 5.85 bargin! The lunch menu had loads of choice, we had a ham & cheese toastie with fries, bacon brie & cranberry panini with fries, jacket potato with chilli & scampi in a basket- each was less than 10, lovely tasting & plenty of food. would definitely recommend
