Spring in Full Bloom

Our courtyard has come alive beneath a carpet of soft pink petals. Paired with twinkling strings of lights and garden beds overflowing with vibrant greens, it’s looking more enchanting than ever.

It’s the perfect romantic spot to enjoy a coffee from The Barista or linger over a date at Major Fraser’s.

We can’t wait to welcome you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for Team Major Fraser’s!

We’re still soaking up the good vibes after last night’s Dorpie Doenlys,what an amazing moment for our team! And just when we thought the night couldn’t get any better, this morning we received a phenomenal review that’s got us grinning from ear to ear.

A massive shout-out to Terri-Ann Hatty for the kind words — you’ve given our crew an extra kick in their boots today!

If you haven’t yet, come taste what all the fuss is about — Major Fraser’s is waiting for you.
