CAFE IN THE COACH
A new caterer - Toon Station Refreshments - has been appointed and the cafe is now open on a take-away and eat-in basis.
The opening times are 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. every weekend from Easter to the end of October, and daily during school holidays. We will also open on other occasions when the weather's good - which of course it often is in Bideford!
The main image shows the coach doing a roaring trade on one of our popular gala days. The station provides an ideal stop-off point for walkers and cyclists on the Tarka Trail.
