About The Old Throttle Shed

Inside, quirky shed memorabilia fills the walls, giving groups and families plenty to explore while hot mugs of coffee hit the table.

  • Outdoor Motoring Views: Umbrella-shaded tables offer front-row views of classic cars and vintage bikes cruising past.
  • Generous Breakfast Classics: Hefty big breakfasts and eggs benedict served alongside large, retro milkshakes.
  • Relaxed Shed Atmosphere: Unique motoring memorabilia and an easygoing setup suited for family outings and group catch-ups.
