Cafe Edge in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Friendly cafe. Lovely lunch. Ordered avocado and eggs on sourdough, way too big a meal for me! Excellent value. Great coffee.

We had a lovely coffee and cake on Sunday at the Cotswold Cafe in Tetbury, friendly service, and the millionaire shortbread was amazing.

We called into this cafe for a quick coffee whilst waiting for friends. The cakes looked so nice we had to try them and we were not disappointed. Well worth a visit.

Came across this cafe almost by accident as we made our way back to the car. As it was dog-friendly, decided to go in for a coffee. Lovely staff, and superb scones, both savoury and sweet. Very dog-friendly. Would definitely recommend searching this cafe out if you’re in Tetbury.

Entramos en el aciano con botas de barro a mitad de camino, pero el personal muy amable nos hizo sentir bienvenidos. Había algunos bollos muy interesantes e inusuales en el menú, y como era mi cumpleaños, elegí el bollo de café y chispas de chocolate con crema coagulada y Nutella, que era completamente exagerado y maravilloso. Como los pasteles y bollos se hornean en el local, son muy frescos, pero algunos pueden no estar siempre disponibles. Mi té descafeinado sabía un poco extraño, pero lo cambiaron por un chocolate caliente sin ningún problema y no me cobraron por el té. El bollo, la mermelada y la crema de mi hermano también eran encantadores, pero pensó que su café con leche mediano era bastante pequeño (era más pequeño que un café con leche mediano que obtendrías de una cadena de comida para llevar), pero dijo que estaba muy caliente. Los precios eran un poco altos, pero no tan altos como algunos de los otros lugares en Tetbury. El servicio fue tranquilo, pero tan amable que no importó. Una señora estaba allí con su perro, disfrutando de un largo descanso y charlando. El café es bastante pequeño pero muy acogedor y limpio; Puedes sentarte afuera cuando el clima sea adecuado. Definitivamente visitaría este café nuevamente, y lo recomendaría sumamente.

It has now changed name. It was just after 5pm and it seemed that everything had already closed. A cafe slightly further up the street was still open but told us they had closed which turned out to be good for us and we stumbled upon the only cafe open. A lovely lady served us a couple of resonably priced house lemonades which were very refreshing, she had some amazing home made cakes there but unfortunately we had already had lunch one hour ealier in another town. I would reccomend this cafe over any others in Tetbury!

This cafe is now called the cornflower this was our first visit, it is operated by 2 wonderful ladies and nothing’s was to much trouble for them the food and service was very good and some of the locals gave us a bit of a history lesson, thank you ladies; We will be going back that’s for sure Gerry

I wanted to have traditional fresh scones - one of my missions for the weekend at Tetbury :-) - and we quickly came across this cosy, cute cafe at one of the main streets. The cafe serves traditional british snacks and has a long list of different types of scones! The scones were fresh, warm and delicious. They were also quite big. Loved that depending on the flavour they were served with different things. I had the cheese scone, which came with extra cheese slices and butter and the lemon scone which came with butter and lemon curd. My friend got food envy and ended up also ordering a classic scone which came with clotted cream and strawberry jam. Don't miss out on this little gem if you are at Tetbury!

This was a planned lunch stop as conveniently situated near the Long Stay Car Park near Tourist Information. The excellent reviews influenced our choice. It was a foul day and we were like a couple of drowned rats after the walk. After changing in the car we made the short trip to what is now called the Cornflower. Still wet and bedraggled we immediately benefitted from the warm temperature. We both had a delicious panini, beautifully presented and shared a lot of tea. Very impressed by the size of the tea pot, which provided us with 3 cups each with more to spare. Felt much more human afterwards, and the experience was made more pleasurable by the warm and friendly atmosphere.

Excellent coffee and gorgeous home made cakes. They also do light lunches and are recently licences for alcohol too. Most importantly for us they are super dog friendly and the ladies that run theCafe both have dogs and truly welcoming. Highly recommend this cafe. ☕️🐶🍰👍👍👍

Very good cafe to enjoy a tea and pastries inside or by take away. Staff was very friendly and prompt.

Excellent place to eat so friendly and no hurry just sit and chat and enjoy the tea. The food is very nice here and well cooked. Will visit again. What a find!

This small coffee shop is a marked contrast to fast food coffeehouses springing up all over England. Coffee and food is great, made carefully to order, and delicious. Service wasn't hurried but efficient, and friendly as could be.

Had a wonderful lunch here before going to Highgrove. The owner is very friendly and funny. Made us laugh from the first moment when he shut 2 of our party outside and put the closed sign up. He then called them in and moved everyone else on up the road. He was on his own and didn't want too many in at one time. He had many stories along with light hearted banter. He then produced the most gorgeous sandwiches and drinks. We highly recommend this cafe if Brian will let you in. If you are easily offended stay away but if you like a bit of light hearted banter and wonderful food bang on the door and beg to go in😀.

Good breakfast here. Nice place outside to sit in the morning sun. Called the breakfast "The Tetbury Breakfast".

Un lugar muy inusual para tomar un café y tarta! El personal era encantador y el café era bueno, pero el pastel fue muy decepcionante. El pastel era bastante seco en el exterior y sólo cuando está pagando se observó las tartas no estaban cubiertos o protegidos, con aferrarse de cine que sin duda han contribuido a mantener la humedad. ! ! !

No dejes que el aire ligeramente anticuadas de este café, es realmente precioso. La acogida es cálida, la comida y la bebida es fresca y abundante y sin duda dejó sensación de que haya tenido la pena. Teníamos un montón de patatas con abundante chaqueta, había más mantequilla y un montón de ensaladas. El té estaba muy caliente y lo y el personal amable y dispuesto. Sin duda merece la pena una visita

We dropped in and were greeted by friendly staff. I had a lovely toasted cheese ham and pickle sandwich presented beautifully on a plate, with salad and coleslaw. Very clean great experience. will be back when in the area.

Paramos en el borde para un aperitivo cafés y un café.

Llegamos buscando algo así Tettbury tomar un aperitivo después de viajar a la zona. Para ser honesto, no estábamos seguros de ir, ya que estaba vacío, pero me alegro de haberlo hecho. Té tostado servían pasteles con mucha mantequilla que es inusual y mis hijas Victoria Sandwich era enorme. El caballero que nos servía era muy amable.

Traditional English Team Room, very personable owner serving homemade cakes, fresh sandwiches and excellent tea and coffee.Rather than trying to compete with the contemporary bistros in Tetbury, Cafe Edge's strength is its quintessential Englishness, a strength the owner should build on and develop.

A small but very pleasant cafe in this lovely town, nice selection of food and drinks at reasonable prices. Good service from nice helpful staff.

This is a small cafe in the picturesque town with Royal connections. Nice pot of tea with real milk and probably the best prawn sandwich we have had in a long while.Did not see HRH but has been seen nearby on occasion. Overall a nice little cafe in a town in The Cotswolds.

Small but cosy, good food, friendly staff. Close to church and public toilets in car park.Had sandwiches that come with a salad.

It reminded me of going ack into the 60's and 70's. Old fashional personal service given by a more senior person who I guess did it to suplement his pension.We asked for two sandwiches, one tuna, one cheese and tomato with salad. They were £4.50 each which I thought a bit steep, but they were very well filled and just right for our stop on the road.The coffee was fresh and good. It is indeed at the Edge of the tourist centre but the others were a bit overdone so I was pleased to find this simplicity.

Popped in when canvassing in Tetbury. I normally find the coffee sold in larger brand coffee shops a little too weak and bland so it's nice to find somewhere like this that sells a coffee that really 'hits the spot'! It was a quiet wet Friday morning when I came in so I got to have a chat with the owner, Brian who is very friendly and a really great host.

It is a nice places to visit and have good fresh food. I don't agree with other review because of the owner gets panicked so he turns other people away but it's a good little cafe cozy inside definitely will go there again. Thanks

One of the weirdest lunch experiences ever. A little cafe, with a sign in the window stating cash only (fair enough). We took the last free table at which point the waitress must have changed the sign on the door to 'Closed' (It was about 1.45pm on a Saturday). Another couple came in, made the mistake of trying to order and were very rudely told that there were no tables, (despite the fact that one table was just being vacated) and that 'the cafe was closed anyway'. A few minutes later when that couple had left and another table also became free, the owner turned the sign back to 'Open'. A family with a pushchair started to come in, but the owner hurried to stop them saying he didn't allow pushchairs as they should have seen from the sign in the window. He ushered them out but one of the party tried to remonstrate saying they could have folded down the pushchair and he that he was losing business. The owner basically responded that he didn't care.It is a narrow little place, not ideal for pushchairs, but the way the owner spoke to the family was not good and I felt embarrassed to be eating in his cafe. Try somewhere else.

Went in to get a coffee. Very quickly, it became clear that this was a wrong move. For a start, the place stank of brussel sprouts, which was very offputting if you don't like sprouts. Not sure that they actually sold that food there - it just smelt.Second up, the guy behind the counter looked a bit baffled when I asked for a takeaway coffee. Always concerning. But he quickly found some cups. He ran his coffee machine, and then put the coffee in the cup and looked for a lid. But the lids kept breaking. The guy started complaining about the quality of goods in the cash and carry before he found a lid that seems like it clicked on properly. I think he actually wrecked the cup trying on so many caps. Still, his heart and customer service ethos was in the right place.Despite only spending two-three minutes in this place, I left with a whiff of sprouts in my nostrils and a coffee that tasted of brussel sprouts more than it smelt of coffee

My girlfriend and I visited the Cafe after spending the morning at Westonbirt Arboretum. The first thing that should be said is the owner Brian is full of life and couldn't make you feel more welcome. The food was excellent and freshly made to order, I cannot speak highly enough of Brian and how much he made the visit a fantastic experience.

I agree with the other reviewer who said that this is a very odd place. From the outside, it looks really promising, but inside is a different story.We were greeted a little gruffly upon arrival and went on to order two teas and a slice of carrot cake. The waitress then proceeded to bring out the crockery piece by piece (i.e. she brought across two teacups, then went back to get the milk, then went back to get the tea, and then went back to retrieve the saucers). The tea was fine, though the tea pot and my cup were a little dirty. The carrot cake was not very nice as the frosting was a foam concoction that tasted very strange.

Popped in here for coffee to get out of the cold, no luck it was as cold inside, the coffee served was really strong. Don't think we will rush back as there is far more welcoming cafe's in the town.

My wife and I went in for coffee and cake, and were made very welcome by the owner.As someone already said the coffee is not quite like the Costa style but good non the less.Lovely cakes and a lovely place we will go there again when down that way.

We popped in to Cafe Edge prior to visiting Highgrove. Good paninis, freshly made to order, but our Flat White coffees didn't quite match what we expected (usually served elsewhere with a generous velvety layer of steamed milk). Genial host.

Nice cafe good value and made very welcome. Jolly owner. Will use again. Thanks and nice cake by the way.

Called in today when visiting Tetbury, excellent service,very quick with our order.Food was very good quality. We will know where to go when we visit again

I met an old friend in Tetbury, it being half way between where I lived, and my friend lived. Walking out of the car park this was the first cafe we came across and there were a few people in there, the menu looked good so we gave it a try. We were immediately given a warm welcome by the owner who was very friendly and full of local information. We ordered coffee and I must say the coffee was very good. After a while we ordered jacket potatoes which were perfectly done and were presented with a small side salad which healthily included a couple of wedges of lemon and slices of fresh orange. More coffee to finish and a good chat with the owner. Overall a good experience in this small friendly cafe, good value and freshly prepared food. In the window was proudly presented top rated hygiene certificate. Will definitely call again if we visit Tetbury.

Excellent food cooked to order. Owner Phil, a great character with good friendly humour - a feel good little cafe.

Lovely friendly cafe, very welcoming, small menu with food cook to order, great for lunch or coffee and cakes.

The best scones mit clotted cream, I ever ate. Well, this is not a modern restaurant, but to be honest, it must not be such a cafe. I liked more the inside and the chef there, who bakes the scones himself and all other staff, which belongs to this nice cafe with highest quality standards.

We were seeking a quick light lunch berfore a Highgrove tour and this looked rather chic from the outside. The inside was much less attractive and quite small and cramped. Good traditional café menu choice and pleasant service but quite basic generally. Although opposite an organic baker shop I was disappointed with supermarket sliced brown bread with my soup, as I looked across the road at delicious looking loaves. The toilet was cluttered with cleaning equipment and reminded me of café loos in Italy! Would probably use elsewhere on a return visit to Tetbury.

I was recently in tetbury with work and managed to find the time for a spot of lunch, there are several tea rooms in tetbury but with one of them being shut my choice was made a lot easier. I found cafe edge on the end of church street and although it was relatively busy i still went in, Im very glad i did. Even with the business of the shop i was still served within a few minutes with probably the best tasting coffee ive had in years (having to travel with work i spend a lot of times in the larger chains it was hot! not like other recent experiences) The menu was sufficent and very reasonably priced i had a jacket potato which was loaded with filling which was also brought out quite timely after ordering. The staff were very friendly and attentive which was nice to see that they are happy in their work. All in all a very satisfied lunch break which i dont always find the time to take.

En route, to a visit to Highgrove, we parked for an hour or so in Tetbury for s spot of lunch, choosing the Cafe Edge. This family run (Mum, Dad and daughter), small, friendly cafe proved to be just what was needed for a wholesome, well-prepared and served meal, plus the best coffee tasted in a very long while! Highly recommended for a light meal at any time of the day.

Popped in here on our way back from Buckingham to Devon. Friendly, quick service and good value for money. Our jacket potatoes were loaded with cheese and a substantial salad garnish.In addition, a member of staff hurried out to find us and return my husband's glasses which he had left behind. Very grateful!

A truly pleasant experience for tea and cake. Beats all others hands down with great hosts and home made cakes. We keep going time and time again and are never disappointed.

What a joy it is to walk into this cafe and be greeted by a ready smile - all customers were made extremely welcome.Although early lunchtime we only wanted coffee and scones. The coffee was perfect and the scones to die for! Very good value for money, we would certainly visit again should we ever find ourselves in Tetbury again.

Great little cafe in Tetbury. Really tasty coffee at a reasonable price. We found the owners very friendly and chatty and would definitely recommend and visit again.

This cafe is located in the centre of Tetbury, near the tourist information office. The service was efficient, the drinks lovely, but what makes this cafe worth a visit are the home-made cakes. They may not have the choice of every cake every day, because they are freshly-made each day and they don't make a new batch until the old batch is gone, so you know everything that they have will be fresh. Delicious!

We ate at Cafe Edge on the end May bank holiday having gone to Tetbury to enjoy the annual wool sack racing and all the other attractions around it. The cafe was very busy but we loitered until there was a table free. The cafe has a very friendly atmosphere, is basic but clean a touch of old world with very friendly staff. Although busy we did not have to wait long for our bacon mushroom and cheese toasted panninis, for such a simple meal they were really tastey and hot a small salad came with them and we had a strawberry milk shake to go with it which was also very nice. The food was very filling and was about right for what we wanted We would certainly recommend this cafe and will visit it again.Well done Brian and the staff

We stopped by Cafe Edge today for the first time and what a treat it was. We enjoyed tasty home cooked good at a very reasonable price - I can recommend the jacket potatoes, they were perfectly cooked and served with plenty filling.A real find.

I nearly walked out of here before I had ordered as it seemed I was invisible. Just one other table was occupied (until someone sat outside) but not even an acknowledgement from the owner.Just a pot of tea and a toasted tea cake was all I wanted and when it came it was fine - you can't do too much damage to either - but the service was hardly welcoming and not enough to encourage second helpings.

I have visited this family run cafe on many occasions and have always been very pleased with the amazing service and food. Brian, Marie and Lyndsey are always brilliant. The menu is excellent with food always being made to order. The choice of hot drinks is excellent and their fresh home made cakes are definately a great accompaniment and a real treat.I was so excited after my last visit to Cafe Edge when Billie Piper arrived with her boyfriend Laurence Fox, they too where thoroughly impressed with how great the carrot cake was.Unfortunately I am not in this area nearly half as much as I would like to be but will make sure I pop in next time I am.

We popped in here after doing a thorough tour of Tetbury, and it was a very comfortable place to rest and grab a few snacks. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the chocolate cake was simply incredible. The only downside is that it's a very small cafe, and it was completely packed when we were there . . . but I think that gives you a good idea how popular it is!

Good little cafe in the centre of Tetbury. Varied sandwich/soup menu

We visited with friends for a brunch and had a super meal spiced with stories from Brian, the owner, which had us all in stitches of laughter. One of the most enjoyable meals we have ever had.

I was last there a few weeks ago but will drive from miles away to sample their fresh foods. The owner, Brian, is friendly as well as efficient. He is on the town council in Tetbury and if the Cafe is not full he will keep you regaled with wonderful conversation and stories. The menu is small because of the small kitchen but everything I have sampled has been great. I especially like the paninis. My wife and I live in the US but spend about three months a year in the UK to spend time with children and grandkids. We discovered this Cafe about three years ago and now go out of our way to return. This is a great place for a small breakfast or lunch.
