Busby Road, Clarkson. Dunno the address number though. It's not far from
the railway station.

The front of the cafe looks modern but inside nothing of the sort

Went to Boni's today after reading about it on here and the "I Like" website. It's still open for business and what a pleasant time we had.

Someone mentioned the coffee having a tcp tinge to it and i can only agree that yes that was my experience. It didn't matter though I just loved the place.

Had a chat with the lady owner and how lovely she was, I explained that there is a lot of appreciation for her cafe and that it has a somewhat cult following. She was amazed to hear this and stated " I see everyone walking by, and i just think - has everyone forgotten about us" I swear it nearly brought a tear to my eye.

So anyway she thanked me and said it had given her a lift. which was nice.

Promised i would print some pics and articles about the cafe for her and take them in next time I visit.

I propose that everyone should try and pop along for visit to her and tell her what a great reputation the place has.

Sounds like this lovely old lady could be the perfect destination for a nice wee bicycle trip soon, when it starts being summer again.  
Thanks Smckenzie, for your lovely post xx
