This bit of graffiti was there when we moved in, and we can’t bring ourselves to cover it up.

The old Honesty Box was, in truth, a bin which we converted for a new purpose in life.  The new one was constructed by my own fair hand and to be honest (which you have to be, given that it’s an Honesty Box) I’m kinda proud of it!  And the great news is that the Honesty Box is still making enough money for Dock Cafe to stay open!

The Dock bookshelves have loads of great titles, many from local authors.  If you get engrossed in a good book while you’re in the cafe, feel free to borrow it – we trust you to return it!  (You have an honest face.)

The Dock knitting group meets every Tuesday from 4:30-6:30. When they get fed up knitting scarves, tea cosies and bobble hats they sometimes make something nice for the cafe (including the Dock colours of course).

The comfy seating areas now have nice soft carpets to make you feel at home – all made up from end-of-roll remnants, superbly bound by the nice chap at Ravenhill Remnant Shop.
