Berry's Coffee House in Shropshire

A unique venue offering lots of different spaces. We called in for breakfast on the last day of our holiday (avoids a rush when leaving a cottage). Guys enjoyed their cooked breakfasts and we had wonderful thick blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and bacon complete with a tasty crust on the pancakes. Really enjoyed them.

We spent the weekend sampling the local cooked breakfasts and this was by far the best. Very tasty, huge portion and came out piping hot, we would definitely come back.

After a 7 mile hike we stopped from home a cuppa and cake. This dog friendly courtyard coffee shop was warm and welcoming with a great selection of cakes. The service was quick and welcoming. Highly recommend

Reviewed many times but not had a breakfast here before and am reviewing the other two great cafés in Church Stretton so here goes.Berry's has an advantage over the other two, with many little rooms and a delightful garden.The staff are always really friendly and the service is very good.Not had a breakfast here before but we both opted for the veggie and were not disappointed. Really wholesome and tasty food, one of the best I've had in recent times. Hidden away but worth seeking out, you won't be disappointed.

Hidden little gem! The food is so tasty and such a good value for money. The service is friendly and welcoming. We absolutely loved it and we will definitely return! Just what was needed after a long walk. Thank you ❤️

The services that I received were nothing less from astounding, they allow you full use of your imagination :smiley:, they give you scenarios in which you get to complete on your own :smiley: A special thanks to strawberry, the one that made this whole experience possible

Delicious tea and cake, really lovely coffee shop, with excellent service. Highly recommend after a walk up the long mynd

Had lunch here today, the food was amazing. I had Salmon, potatoes & seasonal veg, everything was cooked to perfection! Served on a hot plate, plus!! I highly recommend a visit.

The ladies at the tourist information had suggested we should have lunch in Berry's and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent and we got to chose from a great menu. The staff were informative and very helpful. I can thoroughly recommend Berry.s and will go there again happily

Simply lovely. We popped in on the off chance there was a table free and so pleased we did. We had 4 pieces of cake and 4 drinks for £18. The cakes were just amazing, different flavours and all made in house. We'd be back here if it were more local to us!

We popped in for some lunch mid week and it was very busy! Popular place but able to get a table no problem, the servers were quick to take our order and very friendly, had a sandwich and a toastie and they were really lovely, the tea and coffee were delicious, we really enjoyed coming here and would definitely come again if we were in the area!

Visited for lunch after reading good reviews and menu but we were disappointed in both venue and food. We decided to sit outside as the cafe was busy so everyone inside were close together but the courtyard was unkempt and a rat-trap just by our table was somewhat off-putting (would have left if we had noticed it initially). My soup and scone with cheese was ok but pricey & my tea cup was not clean, my son's shropshire rarebit very tasty but my husband's ham sandwich was not unlike a supermarket one, the total bill over £10 more than a nearby cafe for similar items. Definitely style over substance!!

lovely decor, cosy seating, nice outdoor garden seating. If you like to be able to taste coffee in your coffee then don't order coffee. Weak, watery and tasteless. Neither of us could drink it. Teacake didn't have much fruit in at all. Mentioned the tasteless coffee on paying, was offered a free drink next time, but declined it as we were passing through, so there won't be a next time.

Thought we'd pop out for lunch somewhere other than Shrewsbury. Found this place - and really pleased we did. Great service, lovely feel to it and proper home-cooked food.

Stopped here after trying another local cafe but they weren’t serving food at 2:30. Lucky for us we found this gem. The food was excellent, I ordered a chickpea fitter salad and my husband a ham salad. Lovely chutneys on the side and delicious beetroot salad.

Out for the day and needed something to eat and found Berry’s. It turned out to be a little diamond!

Lovely food. Nice environment and staff. Idea for a variety of meals, breakfast, lunch, cake and a coffee, etc. I would recommend a visit to this establishment in the lovely country town of Little stretton.

Ever since we were first lucky enough to discover this brilliant cafe over a decade ago, we make a point of visiting it whenever we're in Shropshire. The food is consistanly delicious. The Welsh Rarebit was the best I've ever had. The small cafe was full when our family group of 6 arrived but we were cheerfully accomodated in a separate spacious dining room.

What a lovely quaint place, lots of 'rooms' and outside place and sparkly clean toilets. The first thing was a recommendation by a passer by of where to eat, and they were not local either. Then once I saw the menu, which for a dairy free person was a must......, also had a vegan scone, so although full ... I found a place for that! Its not often I can eat happily with ease of choice, even had a granary bread with no milk. It was quite a rustic type of place, and the sight of such fantastic cakes (all under cover) when you come in was divine. Staff were friendly too, so what not to like, everything was such a happy experience. We left feeling light hearted and full! Three friends - one Ploughmans, one Quiche and one Hummus - plus a scone.

What an amazing find. Every single drop of coffee and food was amazing. The quality and taste was just superb. Homemade and perfect and such a friendly place. And properly dog friendly too. Brilliant. The best.

I've been blessed with fantastic cake and coffee recently but I have to say that the overall experience at Berry's tops the lot. Number 10 in Cheshire beaten by number 10 in Shropshire (Church Stretton has 3 in the top 10), with the ambience of the idyllic garden at the back the deciding factor.Friendly welcome always and lovely table. We ordered the Elderflower and Bakewell sponge cakes with ice cream. I was lucky to taste both - exceptional and really good value.

I have been to Berry’s many times. The food is always lovely and excellent locally sourced produce used. The breakfast is wonderful, as well as some very nice homemade cakes and tarts. The waitresses are always really friendly and chatty. Really can’t recommend this place enough.

After leaving another coffee shop we can here and had a lovely welcome and very friendly service.Sat in the garden which had a certain rustic charm.The ladies who served were all nice and smiley (despite wearing masks - you can just tell). And we all left satisfied - we only had drinks and a tea cake but the food that came out looked good.

Chanced upon Berry’s after a long walk and it was just what we needed. Lovely chatty and helpful staff, comfy sofas and delicious hearty food. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Went with my Mum and son apres doggie walk. Really fancied a coffee and a slice of cake. Well oh my goodness me!....I can say hand on heart that the Elderflower, Lemon and Pistachio Cake was absolutely amazing! In fact probably THE most scrumptious cake I've ever had....Mum was equally enamoured, and son enjoyed his toasted sandwich and scone with clotted cream. A lovely traditional place with a cosy atmosphere, and friendly, helpful staff. The talented young lady who made the cake, offered to give us the recipe, bless her. We had a lovely time, thank you

Friendly welcoming staff. Tasty breakfast, the vegetarian breakfast was wonderful. Looking forward to our next visit.

Fantastic vegetarian breakfast. Protein in the chick pea hash browns, halloumi, scrambled eggs, plus field mushrooms, tomatoes.husband enjoyed traditional farmers breakfast also excellent. Great service from friendly staff

This is the third visit and we were not left disappointed.Good simple food and recommend.The portions of the dressing appear to be smaller than last years visit but still fresh and tasty.I have the Bacon and Brie sandwich and comes with a small side salad and a few crisps.My son had a Egg mayo which came with the same side dressing.It’s a shame the lightly spiced tomato chutney wasn’t accompanied with it as from previous times.

When we visit Church Stretton we always make a beeline for Berrys. This time things were a little different, placing a takeaway order down the side passage from their pared down menu, and very fortunately getting one of the tables in the sunny courtyard. But some things will always be the same. Lovely cheerful staff, yummy food and my favourite raspberry Bakewell tart. Suddenly the world feels right again. Thank you Berrys for providing just the essentials to cheer us up when we need it. We made three visits this week and enjoyed the toasted sandwiches, bacon and sausage sandwiches and halloumi and sun dried tomato sandwich. Also enjoyed the coffee and walnut cake, brownies and the elderflower cake too. We had to do a lot of walking to justify scoffing all this, but it was so worth it.

A charming cafe set in the centre of lovely Church Stretton. Greeted by a lovely cheerful waitress upon arrival & sat in a cosy little parlour like room. I had Shropshire Rarebit & a pot of tea (made with loose leaf, what a treat!) which was served with a generous salad. My husband had a cheese & ham toastie, both meals were delicious. The ambience was peaceful & pleasant, nice to forget about the world outside for a while! Would thoroughly recommend this delightful little place.

I had their "farmer's breakfast". With locally-produced sausages, free range eggs, granary bread, well-cooked mushroom and tomato, it's an English cooked breakfast that's a world away from the greasy overcooked mess you might get elsewhere. Great value as well.

A big menu for breakfast and lunch, cozy and welcoming dogs without fuss. Our goto place when in Church Stretton.

Lovely little cafe tucked away. Great choice of drinks and the cream tea was to die for. Plenty of choice for those with dietary requirements and all staff were very friendly. Dog friendly which is always a bonus. Would definitely go back!

We went for a breakfast at this lovely coffee house. Very friendly service, place has lots of different rooms with tables or there is an area with sofas and easy chairs. It is a bit like the TARDIS! The breakfast came piping hot and was delicious. We had a nice chat to the waitress who was Slovenian , and as we had visited Slovenia a number of years ago we could reminisce.We enjoyed our time there so much we went back the next day for lunch! Again friendly service, food was lovely and we would definitely visit again when in the area. There is a courtyard as well for sunny days where dogs are welcome. Also all Covid19 measures were in place so felt safe.

This was a great find, whilst in Church Stretton. There were three different home-made soups on the specials board. I can recommend the watercress, spinach and pea soup served with a warm cheese scone. Staff were lovely and friendly too. I highly recommend a visit.

Just lush. Food, atmosphere, service. All of it. I had cheeseploughmans and dh had goat's cheese tart. Both were accompanied by fabulous salads. Best of all, though, was the cream tea. Sooooo good.

My friend and I visited today and had a lovely time. The service was flawless and the food delicious: highly recommended.

Lovely building in a good location. Good choice of delicious cakes and huge scones. Friendly, helpful staff. Recommended.

I've often had lunch and cake breaks at Berry's, but my full veggie breakfast this morning is probably the best ever!

Camping in the area and found Berry's on trip advisor while looking for dog friendly places to eat. What a find!! Amazing choice of healthy, organic, vegetarian food which is rare. Lovely staff, great food, wish we were closer.

What a delightful find! Very friendly staff, all conscientiously following Covid precautions, lovely surroundings. And quite possibly the best raspberry Bakewell tart in the known universe!!

Fantastic welcome with the friendliest waitresses... One of the best breakfasts we've had. 10/10! We'll be back!

Sat outside in very quaint court yard. Ate clotted cream scone which was gorgeous. Staff very nice. Dog allowed inside and out.

What a find, and dog friendly to. Service and food were excellent, would highly recomend. Would certainly come back here next time we are in Church Stretton.

This was an unexpected find for us but really pleased we came across this quirky coffee shop! The staff are very friendly and service was great. Lovely choice of food on their menu and the cakes are divine! Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area!

This is far more than a coffee bar. Very extensive menu of home cooked food,licenced too. Sit in or take away.Despite being busy, the service was excellent, covid safety measures extremely good. And the taste and presentation of food excellent.Would definitely visit Berry's again whenever in area.

Excellent tearoom (I think this description fits it better than 'coffeehouse'). Lovely building, well-designed small rooms providing several separate spaces, nice small garden, very good tea (proper tea leaves in pot with strainer), excellent cakes, nice lunches, excellent service. Good attention to Covid-19 safety precautions. Staff wearing face coverings. We visited Berry's several times during our week's stay in Church Stretton for lunch and afternoon tea. Our favourite cake was the Elderflower, almond and pistachio, which we had several times and it was always really moist and fresh. Can't fault them on anything, except that they don't take bookings. So when we arrived once around 2pm and it was full they wouldn't save us a table for a later time so we had to return and hope one was free (it was). Mid-afternoon we had no trouble getting in straight away. Will definitely go back there next time we're in Church Stretton or nearby.I assume for most special occasions it wouldn't be suitable as they don't take table bookings and it's small, but there's no harm in asking if they can make special arrangements for exceptional reasons (eg a group wishing to book the whole tearoom).

Dropped in for a quick coffee break while walking the history trail around Church Stretton. Greeted at the door by very friendly team members and made welcome. Nice sunny courtyard st back, very pleasant after a wet day previous. Coffee good, scones excellent. Highly satisfied.

Visited last we were here. Once again the stand out was the lovely staff.Lovely cosy place. Very comprehensive menu, would suit anyone with any requirements.Cakes are lovely. Good coffee.Delightfully quaint place for a lovely meal or snack.Very very good adherence to Covid regulations.

Fancied an afternoon break & the welcome we got when we entered was great. Just had a drink but we will be back for cake later on in the week. Service was excellent & price very reasonable.

Out for a stroll and my friend suggested we call in at Jemimas for a bacon butty as it was very good the last time we called. On our way, a delightful young lady outside Berry's smiled and said hello as she had done the day before. Both great cafes but thought we'd support Berry's due to the effort made to get people in.Nice table, good distancing, gel on the way in and table service for everything including sugar, ketchup etc. Friendly service second to none.Bacon sandwich not as good as Jemimas, little bit burned and bread a bit flimsy but still tasty. Lovely latte.Staff here are friendly, efficient and full of life; rach1336 ''slow and bad'', you went somewhere else or you are going mad.

Berry’s open for takeaway. Delicious lemon cake and bakewell was absolutely beautiful!! Nice to see you open again!!

Well done Berry's for reopening for takeaways! You've been sorely missed during lockdown and it's great to see your cheerful staff back again to provide great takeaway food and service!

Waited 45 minutes for food to be ordered when I saw a man working there casually getting himself a coffee and could clearly see me and my family with menus waiting. Waitresses looked miserable and tires, and customer service was bad. Eventually paid and waitress couldn't find tab. Had to rethink everything that was ordered.

A gem of a coffee shop tucked own a side street. Delicious soup with cheese scone and a chunk of cheese made a good lunch. Staff very friendly and the cakes looked good.

After day walking on the hills around church stretton called in for food friendly staff and delicious sandwiches coffee and cake good to quick service fantastic cafe would definitely recommend

A hidden gem that can be easily missed. Excellent selection of cakes and portions are a decent size. The tea is very good, served with leaves and a strainer. The staff are efficient and friendly. There is a large amount of seating spread over multiple rooms with one having a sofa. A great choice for meeting friends or recovering after a long walk.

Follow the signs down a small side alley off the square, it may look closed if you don't go down the alley.Well worth a visit in this quaint cafe with nice rooms. We had tea cake and a cheese scone, tea and coffee...all realy nice. A little more expensive tah most at £9.90 but worth it.

Absolutely love this place! Always a warm welcome and wonderful homemade food. Called in today after long walk ... we tend to opt for the delicious soup with the doubly delicious buttered home made cheese scone ... mmmmmmm ... this leaves just enough room for one of the fabulous home-made cakes. Highly recommended!

We went as my daughter had been and had a good experience. Not today chatting was more important than customers. After 20 minutes, we asked if we could order , were told they were short handed but counted 7 in the kitchen. Eventually served. Then for got drinks. Food was mediocre. Won’t be going again.

Hot chocolate and cake with the family over Christmas. Chose a table next to a lovely open fire. Slabs of cake and cream and marshmallows topped the chocolate. Lovely smiling staff. Good to see eco friendly loo paper in the toilets too.

Me and my daughter went for breakfast this morning, grace had pancakes and bacon, I had sausage and egg sandwich, it was undoubtedly the best breakfast we have ever tasted.

Excellent food,excellent service,excellent setting, my wife and I have been back many times,sometimes with friends,and never disappointed. Cosy in the winter,and a nice courtyard in the summer. I recommend the Welsh rarebit, very tasty,very nice,very well presented.

We were visiting Church Stretton with friends and were recommended to Berry's, with directions as to the location of the entrance which is down an alleyway, next to Salts.

Back in Berrys on a Friday, late morning and it's busy, school hols I guess.

Our first visit to this coffee house :will be going back ,lovely quaint cafe ,staff very friendly;we had coffee and sandwiches;well presented,fresh lovely bread ,lovely relaxing place to eat ,well worth a visit.

We love Berry's. We've visited multiple times each time we come to the Shropshire Hills for a holiday. Berry's is always the perfect place for a late lunch after a long walk. Or an early brunch before a long walk! Staff are always very friendly and knowledgeable. All of the food we've eaten here has been so good. And bonus points for knowing it's all locally sourced and supplied by people who are passionate about food. On our most recent visit, after a walk to see the Stiperstones, we arrived midafternoon when the lunch rush was over. It was very quiet and we had one of the dining rooms to ourselves. We enjoyed the ploughman's and the Staffordshire oatcakes with hummus, olives and sundried tomatoes. Decaf flat whites were good, silky smooth foam with the right bite of coffee. We usually have (or make) room for cake but this time our main courses defeated us!

Greeted by lovely waitress. Menu covers everything you could want. We had the husband/wife brekkys. Hot, fresh and delish. Cakes looked amazing. Lots of quirky comfy areas to sit in. Recommend for a relaxed and tasty stop.

Visited three times during our holiday in the area. We love the leaf teas, cosy ambience, friendly service, top quality locally sourced food and interesting multi room set up. The old fashioned feel is just perfect and not contrived. The attention to detail with the sourcing of the food, preparation and presentation is inspiring. We have sampled, Shropshire rarebit, various savoury tarts, sandwiches, cakes and leaf teas and coffee. All superb. We love this place, and can’t wait to visit again.

Serves LEAF tea!! The Brits seemingly having forgotten how to make tea. Meals also delicious. The accommodation consists of several small rooms with a lovely outside area into the bargain. Friendly staff, prompt service.

Relaxing after a night on the other side of The along Mynd this is our coffee house of choice.... the cappuccinos are superb and the front room is a great place to chill read the papers drinking great coffee.

We spent two sessions here during rainy periods. We drank a range of teas (English Breakfast, Kenya blend, Rooibos and the astonishing red berry cocktail tea, all made from loose leaves), we ate some cakes (best bakewell tart I can remember), had mushroom and parsley soup (where have you been all my life). All provided in a very uniquely characterful environment by friendly staff. The best.

Came here for tea a couple of times on a recent visit to Church Stretton on the recommendation of my partner, who had visited some years back. Lovely place just off one of the main streets and rightly popular with the locals and visitors. Warm welcome from friendly staff and very fast service. On both occasions we sat out the back in the delightful courtyard and enjoyed the peace and quiet so near the town centre. The afternoon tea brew is very good indeed and the cakes are dangerously delightful.

Lovely find, gorgeous eating house, several small rooms in an 18th century house. Nice courtyard area. Some rooms and the courtyard are dog friendly. The staff were friendly and helpful, Good choice of food, as it was lunch time we only had a sandwich but it was delicious, Somerset Brie and bacon on granary bread with side salad and crisps. Nicely presented, cost £4.50.

The place has a good feel, probably as it is owner managed and not part of a chain. Service wasn't as smooth as it could have been, they might have been short staffed on the day though. One waitress did take a picture of our group for us though.

I can only review what we were there for which was tea and cakes in the afternoon, the service was good, the cakes excellent and that tea went down well.

Being the Bank Holiday weekend, we thought it best to book a table (for 7), which was a good move as it was pleasantly busy for a Friday lunchtime. We arrived and were escorted out the back, to the front room. The walk took us past cakes, bread and crisps (and lots of other boxes) that were to be used in the kitchen. Nice big room with one large table, all to ourselves.

We went to treat my elderly mother with a birthday lunch. As there were seven of us we booked the day before and were told no problem as there weren't any other bookings.

This had been recommended as dog friendly place for great breakfast by the owner of the cottage we were staying in.

If anything really annoys me its having a daily 'Specials' board and then subsequently being told things are not available!

We called in Berry’s whilst driving from North to South Wales.

Took my elderly mum in here (originally for lunch). Waited to be seated by a little table with a bell just through the door. And waited.. When eventually told could sit where we liked found some tables only for 3/4people -ok fair enough. Sat reading the menu and decided on very nice sounding sandwiches but waited and waited for our order to be taken and in the end decided just to have tea and scones because we were running out of time. Scones were delicious when they eventually came but gather they had been taken to the wrong table. Asked waitress where we paid was told at table on the way out. So stood there waiting and waiting again despite a waitress coming and collecting cakes right by us and ringing the bell. Bearing in mind my mum can't stand for very long and we had an appointment elsewhere I found our table chit laid out on the little table and put the money on it and told the customers on a nearby table. Must have spent half hour at least waiting and ten minutes eating.Not all tables were full either so that not an excuse. What a pity because food was lovely.

Met up with the family for a get together. Great menu service and food. Quirky place with many books and crannies. Toilets umm owner, manager staff, sit on the loo and look under the taps ugh.

We called in mid -afternoon for scones ,jam & cream which were very tasty and served by very pleasant staff

Delicious homemade food a wide range of specials Lovely fresh salad and amazing service Lovely outside courtyard Very good value for money Would highly recommend

Locally sources ingredients and home cooked cakes beautifully cooked and presented, what more could you want from a coffee house. We visited for breakfast and lunch and everything was served piping hot and well presented, the courtyard is a great sun trap but the other rooms are equally as great to sit in. A fabulous and very busy coffee house the best we found in the village

We went for a simple lunch on a rainy Tuesday in July. We all had the soup of the day, which was roasted sweet potato and carrot. It came with a choice of cheese scone or brown or white bread. Everything was tasty and we were served in good time. We thought it very sensible that they reserved the larger tables for larger groups of diners, otherwise we may not have been able to find seats in this popular cafe.

Came here for breakfast on our way back home to Lincolnshire after a weekend away.

Great service, good selection of fresh cakes and a delicious menu of cafe food & sandwiches! Lovely little quirky cafe and a cosy garden for when the weathers good.

A very interesting, individual cafe much better than a chain coffee place. Nice seating areas both inside and out. The coffee tasted good but I do prefer a more contemporary cup/mug rather than the 'village hall' type of crockery.

Looking for somewhere to go on a rainy afternoon, I stumbled across this coffee house/tearoom on the internet. The cream tea was excellent, although (arguably) on the pricey side). Service was friendly and the coffee house itself is a quirky building with a lot of character. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

So let’s start with “wow”! The breakfast served in this cosy establishment is to die for! I’ve now tried their famed “Farmer’s Breakfast” on numerous occasions and it seems to get better every time. The produce is of outstanding quality. The staff are attentive and adorably kind, with a certain waitress that seems to always remember the small details in each member of my family’s order. I should add that i’ve tried the scones and cakes and they don’t disappoint: all top notch! A really worthwhile experience that I would highly recommend to all who visit Church Stretton.

Our friends my Husband and I went to the Cafe for breakfast. The Cafe is quirky the service brilliant and the food fabulous. A great start to the day!!

We visited this cafe just for coffee, it is very quirky with lots of little separate seating areas, including an outside area. The staff were very friendly and the coffee was great. We shall return for cake next time, the cakes looked fantastic.

Seemed a very pleasant place to eat with numerous awards displayed by the entrance. took our seats and waited ..... and waited for 15 minutes.. To no avail. We left

Lovely old fashioned tea room that does excellent food like my Nan used to make.

A really well run cafe, delicious quiche and Welsh rarebit both with interesting salads, which all tasted home made. Proper loose leaf tea and real lemonade. What a pleasure.

Always love this place when I'm in town every few months - great food, friendly staff, homely service. We had toasted sandwich and quiche, with salad. Salads were fresh and quiche and toasties were delicious. I like knowing that they get everything local, and they employ local young people. We'll be back!

Wow - what a rare find! This is such a beautiful and unique tea shop, we stumbled upon it by accident and what a delightful surprise! We had a full lunch from the chalk board specials followed by delicious desserts. You can tell that everything here is homemade and the owners attend to every detail. The service was polite and attentive and we enjoyed discussing the local area with the manager. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

What a pleasant surprise to stumble upon such a quaint, friendly and delicious experience when driving about the countryside prior to settling in London for a business meeting. It felt right out of an old movie - we don’t seem to have these unique places in the US, where traditional home-made fare is served in a warm setting. The scones and clotted cream were a real treat and the homemade cakes were delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. Can’t wait to come back.
