I love seeing old shops being bought back to life, and it’s great to see Some Dose open up in this old shop in Turner’s Cross, a short distance from Tory Top road. Inside is bright & white, with a few bench seats and window seats. The coffees are excellent and there’s also a lovely selection of fresh pastries. Plus you can also buy from a little range of grocery items. And dogs are very welcome. Top marks guys!

I was on my way home, suddenly wanted a matcha latte. I looked up some cafes nearby and found this place. I didn’t expect much, but it was actually really nice! The staff were friendly, and the matcha latte tasted good. The vibe was nice too!

Amazing coffee, friendly staff and great atmosphere. This dog friendly coffee shop is one of a kind in my opinion! They have tasty treats and many other extra bits to browse while waiting. Some Dose is such a relaxing place to have a coffee and you always come out with a smile on your face :) I couldn’t recommend them any more!

My husband and I come here regularly since we work from home nearby. Wonderful local business that really brightens up the area. It's pet friendly too - we sometimes bring our cat! Very tasty coffee and treats, plus they sell local crafters' work as well.
