Nails,
a proper coffee,
& an hour
to yourself.

A boutique salon on Great Western Place — gel manicures, pedicures and full-body pressotherapy. Two experienced technicians, premium Lunamoon polishes, and yes, the coffee is real.

Who we are

The Sunsmile waiting area — mustard tufted armchairs, dark wood floor, geometric wall shelves with candles and plants

A note from the salon

We’re a small place. Two pairs of hands, eight-plus years each, and a coffee machine we like rather a lot. Come in for a manicure and a chat, or thirty minutes flat-out on the pressotherapy bed. Either way we’ll do a good job — and you can take a flat white on the way out.

Recent work,
recent week.

We don’t do trends for the sake of it — but we’ll happily do a deep burgundy glitter on a wet Tuesday in November. Pick a colour, or bring a screenshot, we don’t mind.

02 · The bed in the back room

Forty quiet minutes
in a compression suit.

Gentle, rhythmic compression from your feet up — for circulation, swollen ankles, post-flight legs, and the general business of feeling like a person again.

You keep your clothes on, pop the suit on, and we’ll dim the lights. Most people fall asleep about minute four. That’s allowed.

  • Lovely space and absolutely beautiful manicure. Would definitely recommend!
    Ellie McLean
  • Lovely, friendly staff and she did a great job, my nails are perfect!
    Claire Parker
  • Very lovely coffee shop! Very good nails and pressotherapy!
    Kirsty Mcintyre
  • Wrong turn turned into a fabulous convo, meeting fluffy pom poms and great coffee! Definitely be back. Not just to try out the pressotherapy suit once I am a bit slimmer, or to get a manicure but to try out their home bakes!!
    Amber-Leeh Stewart
  • Fantastic wee salon, very welcoming and took care of my nails beautifully. Thank you!
    Daisy Urquhart-Dixon
  • Lovely local coffee! Well worth the trip and a lovely owner.
    Mae Henderson
  • Gorgeous little spot for coffee and gel/BIAB nails. Both ladies are so welcoming and friendly. Prices extremely affordable. Such a gem especially at this end of town — I do not need to walk to city centre anymore for my nails.
    Rebecca Burns
  • Came in to see the business and try one of their hot drinks. Very nice inside, lots of beauty therapy to offer, cutest dog to greet you and the coffee + hot chocolate was lovely! Dog-friendly and the owner/staff were so welcoming.
