Cadence is probably the best coffee shop in Bowness. It's right on Bowness Road so you can't miss it if you're in the area. It's the perfect little diner/cafe to stop in and have a java or a sandwich.
It may be a little pricey for a coffee shop, but I think it's totally worth it. It's just a very interesting place to sit around in for a couple of hours, read your book, or chat with some locals. It almost seems like Cadence is a bit out of place in Bowness, but it works perfectly.
I find it odd, however, that it is only open until 4pm weeknights and 3pm on Sunday. It would seem like they could make so much better business if they would stay open a little longer.
I really enjoy Cadence for what it is, a cute cafe diner. If ever I'm in dire need of coffee and am in the Bowness area, Cadence is where I go.
