But wait, the chocolatey goodness doesn’t end there. The on-site café is where the magic really happens. Let me tell you about the Banoffee Waffle. Yes, you heard that right – Banoffee. Waffle. This masterpiece is a heavenly blend of crispy waffles, luscious banana slices, rich toffee sauce, and a generous dollop of whipped cream. , of course it is.
The first bite is pure bliss. The waffle is perfectly golden and fluffy, and the combination of banana and toffee is just the right amount of sweet. It’s the kind of treat that makes you forget about all your worries. Each bite melts in your mouth, and before you know it, you’re scraping the plate, wishing there was more.
