Coffeesmith in West Oxfordshire

i always love to go to coffee smith as its very important to me to support small independent businesses. not only is the coffee better quality, but you are supporting a great ethical buisness. great food choices and i really like the atmosphere. my only criticism would be to make milk alternatives free in order to enconurage customwers a more environmental choice to dairy, but i do understand the milk alternatives do cost more so its fairly understandable. the staff are amazing as well.

Best coffee in Witney & around. Fab selection of goodies, but the Bagels are my favourite. Lovely staff and a fantastic atmosphere. Dog friendly as well. My go to place in Witney.

We called in by chance as we passed and found this cosy little cafe with a wonderful selection of delicious cakes and snacks with charming and friendly staff, a perfect spot for a cuppa.

The best coffee and service in Witney. Great atmosphere in this small cafe where the staff are excellent and the coffee is hot and is served pronto!

In a world of mediocre coffee this place is a revelation. Probably the nicest cup I’ve had in years. I’ll definitely be back.

This coffeeshop is really really nice. The coffee is excellent. The service is fantastic. The place is charming. We will definitely come back.

Speechless…. What can I say, the staff are all wonderful, the pastry’s my goodness I had a almond pastry and it’s by far the best I have ever tasted. Everything is so fresh, done on the day and well made. The best part was my little 🐶 was allowed in and got made the biggest fuss off. Compared to corporate coffee shops this family run business is warm and welcoming. Will be regularly going here.

I spent 7 weeks traveling in the UK and Europe (England, Wales, Scotland, France, Croatia and Italy) By far this was the very best coffee I had anywhere on my trip. I only have one coffee a day, and it's always out, never at home. By the time I was in Oxford I had given up trying to find a decent coffee. I do admit to being from Melbourne, Australia, so I am a coffee snob. Sadly two years ago I developed an intolerance to cow's milk so I now drink almond milk. Often people just cannot get an almond coffee right :( But not here. The coffee was so good I felt like I was home. Everything about it was amazing- taste, creaminess, strength, they just nailed it all. I would have paid $50 for it. We did not eat here as we were there mid morning for a quick break from touring, but the food did look good. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Love this cafe apart from one thing. The music is too loud and not actually needed. Because it’s too load people speak louder. An elderly lady with hearing aids could not hear what the staff member was asking when she was paying. Why the need for music at all?

10/10 the coffee is absolutely Delicious and the food is too, lovely atmosphere and not to mention the cakes and pastries, very friendly vibe recommend this place to everyone

perfect! flat white 10 out of 10! service 10 out of 10! Bacon cheese turn over 10 out of 10! toastie 12 out of 10! coffee was perfect service was fast informative and polite Bacon turn over simply divine and the toastie!!! I my God the bacon cheese toastie was out of this world! best brunch in town!

Visited here as never tried their food before , their coffee is insane ! 😊 we had 2 normal toasties and a gf toastie which was tiny ... 3 hot drinks and It came too £34 . I don't mind paying nearly £7 for a toastie if it came with some garnish or something on the side too make it more substantial .

The coffee/food in this little gem was absolutely delicious along with the really welcoming staff just wish we lived closer

After a week of eating all over England, the avocado eggs and sourdough toast I had here today was the single best thing I ate the entire trip. I wanted to walk around long enough that I could eat there a second time on the same day but we had to get back to the hotel, otherwise I would’ve just kept ordering it. I can’t recommend this place enough, I’ve never written a review on trip advisor before and probably won’t again unless it tops my experience today.

This is my favourite cafe in Witney. Super friendly staff and owner. Great tea and coffee selection. Lovely breakfast and toasted sandwiches. Cosy atmosphere. Visit at least once a week.

Ordered 2 coffees and 2 scrambled eggs on sourdough. Coffee came, good quality however the eggs took 30 minutes to arrive, understood ifit was busy ( 5 tables) but it wasn't. When I asked if our food was coming I got a snubby reply that it was nearly ready. UE and the Edge far better although coffee & cake normally fine here.

Like many, we discovered this place by chance... and so glad we did. As a visitor from distant shores to this fine land, in our experience, it is a struggle to find a decent cup of coffee. Coffeesmth has nailed it. Highly recommended!

New Year’s Day and stumbled across this excellent coffee shop with a wide range of drinks and perfect toasted sandwiches. Really personal service to match.

We stumbled across this place on the lookout for a nice brunch spot. We ordered two flat whites and two grilled sandwiches. Oh my god the sandwiches were so crispy and delicious! The lady who served us was super friendly and helpful and it was such a cute place to stay and wake up.

Not been here before, what a treat! Staff very friendly, food lush, surrounding fab! Will come again!!

Fantastic friendly staff! great food, dog friendly and the best chai late in town and quirky interior. My go to place for a good coffee.

Great coffee! Great staff! Great music, dog friendly! My go to coffee shop when I’m in need of a boost!

We love Coffeesmith so much, that barely a day goes by where we don’t pick up our favourite lattes Keep up the amazing work Viral and team

My favourite coffee stop in Witney. The coffee really is lovely and they have a nice selection of cakes etc. I’ve not had breakfast or lunch there but it does look tasty when I see others having it.

Used to love it here. Food and coffee still great but staff seem bored and very slow. 3 staff on but despite lots of orders waiting no one was operating coffee machine for more than 5 mins. Maybe we were just unlucky. Will try again.

Lovely food and coffee. There is a courtyard garden area too. Good cake selection and lovely bacon and cheese pastries! Will def go back as prefer independent cafes. I really like the rustic tap in the toilet!

Had lunch here today as we were impressed by the reviews. The coffee was good but the food was overpriced and just about ok. No garnish with the toasted sandwich which was almost £8. However, the worst experience was the toilet. To say it was...

This may only be a small business but the quality of the food and coffee were both excellent. Choice was limited but all the better for it. Friendly staff with prompt service. Good outside space as well.

I had an amazing oat milk latte at CoffeeSmith last week. The service delivered by Kayleigh was friendly, patient and smiley. Definitely recommend!

If you are ever passing through Witney or Oxford - seek out CoffeeSmiths for the best coffee in town. Outstanding food, great coffee, terrific staff and service as well as being dog friendly! Once tried - you will never use those large chains again!!!

My name is Bertie and I am a 7 month old black Labrador puppy and my owners always take me to CoffeeSmith’s as it is pet friendly. I get loads of treats and my owners enjoy the very tasty cakes, and hot snacks with their...

The best coffee house in Witney, and 2nd place is mike’s behind!! The team are incredible, always so welcoming and accommodating and they’re fantastic with our crazy kids!! Can’t recommend them highly enough!!

Visited Coffeesmiths for first time today , and we were not disappointed. We only took two takeout drinks but the best chi latte I have ever had, and my husband rated his coffee and he is a coffee snob! Will stay in next time as...

One of the best coffees I've ever had. My daughter had a stunning brownie,and a lovely Brunch. All at a reasonable price. We couldn't fault anything. Get away from the big chains and support this lovely coffee shop.

Absolutely wonderful coffee/ I have an oat milk Cortado which is always made to a high quality. Very relaxing, ambient space with professional and friendly staff members. An important part of the local community! I keep Coming back!

enjoyed an absolute culinary delight other day, garlic and herb sausage roll, beautiful pastry. Thanks to Mike the chef

It’s the one coffee shop in Witney we love to visit. Why? The staff greeting is always warm and friendly and often on first name terms! That’s special. We love our cappuccinos and the lunchtime food offerings. All wrapped-up with excellent service. What’s not to...

Saturday 4 September 2021, after a morning of shopping we were all in need of refreshments, so we took Jackie to ‘Coffee Smiths’ a really nice coffee shop that my husband and I have often visited when we have come to Witney. We received a...

Coffeesmith has long been our 'go to' in Witney. Its customer service is impeccable, food is fresh & delicious and the coffee is second to none. Whether you want breakfast, lunch or a little snack Coffeesmith is ideal. It always receives a recommendation from us...

Went in ordered a Large vanilla latte and a large latte. Out came the waitress with a large latte and a large hazelnut latte sorry not what I ordered a few Minutes later came back with the same Coffee but she changed the name not...

We go to this coffee shop most weekends. The staff are always so friendly and attentive. I like to have a Flat White and my wife always has a Latte with a hazelnut shot. Most other coffee shops seem to serve warm coffee not HOT...

If Witney counts edge of the Cotswolds, then Coffeesmith best coffee there too.... Flat white a regular daily treat, love the cinnamon roll

Lovely little place just off the main walk way snd nice setting with lots of outside and inside seating area’s. Good selection of fresh teas and coffees and also the normal fresh breakfast breads and snakes as you would expect. Great see and lovely staff.

My partner and I visited this cafe for afternoon coffee and cake. My partner is coeliac and they offered a lovely gluten free cake. They offered a small range of high quality cakes. The coffee was pleasant, the customer service was excellent and the cake...

4 of us plus the dog sat outside and had coffee and cakes. Delicious. It was so hot we asked for the sunshade to be lowered which was done without any fuss. Would heartily recommend.

Witney locals and we love Coffeesmith. Great coffee and food (the bacon sandwiches are awesome), the bake goods are tasty, and the staff super friendly and nice.

Three friends and I stopped by to grab a coffee during our socially distanced outdoor meetup in well over a year. Whilst ordering we noticed the sourdough toastie menu - and that was it for us, we all ordered one. They were delicious! One of...

So worth a stop on a cold winters day. Coffee and cake was exactly what was needed and this vegan carrot cake was delicious.

This is a lovely place which cares about the product it prepares for its customers. Sadly, I am guilty of frequenting the chains (Costa and Starbuck) far to often (mostly due to a lack of alternatives in the moment). Enjoying a coffee at Coffeesmith really...

Having been fortunate to travel to many far flung places throughout the world as a coffee lover it is great to find the best coffee right on my doorstep at Coffeesmith. Here they have nailed it in every way amazing coffee fantastic staff and service. In these difficult times it's feels only right to support an independent place who have so much passion in what they do rather than a chain where you are just a number. It's an absolute delight to visit as I do 3 to 4 times a week.Of course if you are not keen on coffee they serve a decent cuppa too.Keep up the good work guys.

Best coffee in Witney- great staff and really tasty menu.. always get a really friendly welcome and chat with the staff or owners. Banana bread or flapjack are go to favourites. Not sure why some have a gripe about owners attitude to drinking non purchased drinks onsite-I’m sure that person wouldn’t take a four pack into a pub and expect to drink them there....then to rant on about the quality of food and drink..all just bad feelings and jealous..The regulars know how good the place is-keep up the great work team..

We have been doing our best to support small business through these times,and one of the things we do is to visit the local cafes for coffee and breakfast. We got a coffee from UE this Saturday, and then decided we would go and get some breakfast at coffee smith. We ordered a bacon sandwich to take away and took a seat outside to wait for our breakfast. A rather abrasive man who I assume is the owner, who had been sitting overseeing his lovely staff, proceeded to come out to our table and ask us not to sit at the table as we had coffee from somewhere else. The cups were not branded but he asked us to leave our chairs despite the fact we were waiting for our food to take away. Awful customer service and so unprofessional. I would understand if we were planning on eating there, or if we were not buying anything but we were waiting for our order. As a fellow local business to UE you might think that he would support them.. I believe they even stock UE coffee. I wouldn’t give that man another penny of my money and I think it shows a really bad approach to hospitality. Also if your coffee was made better and you had a better attitude we may have come to you.

Super friendly staff, great service! I stopped in for a coffee and everything was perfect. I'd recommend and will visit again soon.

Absolutely love Coffeesmith. The best coffee and service in Witney. In these difficult times it's so important to support independent places rather than the chains.

Tucked away just seconds from the high street this was a great find. Delicious coffee, really pleasant staff, clean loo, nice outdoor seating and compostable cups. I will definitely be going back.

Delicious Coffee and a great range of cakes and bites. Especially diary free and Vegetarian options. Great chilled vibe.

Lovely coffee shop, with great food too, tasty coffee and i really recommend the Halloumi Bagel its delicious.

They serve the most delicious coffee and their breakfast is equally as good. We had the avocado toast with halloumi and their special sourdough toast with hummus and broccoli. Everything was such high quality. We will be back for sure!

The coffee was delicious, the staff were lovely and they make the best banana flapjack I've ever tasted! People, you need to visit this little gem in Witney.

Came across this cafe by chance while strolling round Witney. Really welcoming and friendly staff, very good service. Food is so delicious - halloumi, humus and roasted red pepper bagel - and the coffee very flavoursome and smooth. I’d definitely recommend this excellent eatery!

Luckily we found this fabulous coffee shop whilst on a weekend away! It’s a lovely space and very chilled with friendly staff. I don’t drink coffee myself but they also have a large range of teas available as well. Family friendly, dog friendly...what else could you ask for...oh yeah! That would be the toasties and cakes..all sublime! I would recommend a visit if passing Witney.

Great coffee shop with amazing cheese toasties on sourdough bread. The flat white coffee was so smooth and full of flavour. They also sell loaves of sourdough bread!

We visited Coffeesmith on a Sunday when visiting old friends from London who now reside in Witney. Before heading back to London we popped into one of our friends favourite café for a brunch with the kids and friends. It had a great atmosphere and friendly staff and was a good warm respite from the February weather. The coffee was delicious and the kids loved their hot chocolates as well. We shared the bacon sandwich on sourdough which was perfect, especially as having just come in from the cold (was served very quickly) while the kids gulped down flapjack and chocolate brownie. Will definitely visit again when back in Witney.

Waited 20 minutes for a takeaway coffee - it was reasonably busy (but not full) so some wait understandable but mainly due to disorganisation between barista and person on the till. Three people asked for refunds whilst I waited and there can only be 20ish covers anyhow. No apology given. If you’re after a quick take away coffee, probably best to go elsewhere! No shortage of coffee shops in Witney.

We stumbled on this gem of a cafe while visiting the Witney Farmer's Market.The service was friendly and quick, the flat whites were fantastic. We tried a goats cheese salad and a bacon sandwich, both were fresh and very tasty... so much better than the chains serve up.I asked the staff about their pet policy and was pleased to hear they're welcome.We'll definitely be back, likely with a dog next time.

Whenever I am in Witney I will visit this coffee house. They are small and off the High street but worth seeking out. The coffee is delicious and they have a selection of cakes and hot and cold sandwiches. It all appears to be freshly made and tasty.

Coffeesmith is a good quality coffee shop offering a selection of fresh cakes, toasted teacakes, etc, with the usual selection of hot and cold drinks. It is pleasant to sit inside although there are only a few tables. Four drinks and 3 cakes cost £17. We ordered at the bar and the food and drinks were served to our table.

I enjoyed an ecellent mid-morning coffee in this friendly coffee shop in a quiet court just off the market.. A peaceful atmosphere, comfortable seating and personal service makes this an ideal place to get one's thoughts together before resuming the pre-Christmas shopping. Reading material available including New Yorker magazines.

Quite small café with approx. nine covers, very clean and tidy eating area. My scrabbled egg and avocado on toast was excellent served by a friendly staff member. Many coffees and teas on offer as well as an assortment of snacks. Lovely place for a drink and snack. Better atmosphere than the large chains in town

Had 2 Chicken and Chorizo bagels with crispy bacon and scrambled egg. Superb, add the lovely salad to it and it was more like brunch. Beautiful food. Coffee and a pot of English tea to go with them

Really great coffee, excellent staff and dog friendly. Lovely atmosphere and far better than the national chains

Spotted on a previous trip to Witney and today I had time to pop in for the first time and enjoy.

My partner and I popped in for a bite to eat and a coffee yesterday. We each had a bagel with halloumi, red pepper and houmous. It was delicious!

Popped in for a brew. Brilliant little coffee shop with a friendly atmosphere. The very very very lovely Shelly served us, she was friendly, interactive and her brownie was to die for 🙂. Thanks!

An amazing cup of Earl Grey and an Americano was served by a most cheerful lady ‘Shelly’. We will be back to enjoy another lovely slice of your chocolate brownie. P.s. Love the music and atmosphere x

We came to Coffee smith frequently over the festive period. Always a warm welcome. Coffee has much improved and arrived piping hot. Very busy coffee shop, but seating is comfortable. Food is available also, with a special offer if you arrive before 10am. Slightly off the main drag of Witney, but well worth a visit.

This cafe has an amazing atmosphere and the food is delish- if the vegan options are.. lacking.. however the server was very happy to adapt one of the options with roast tomatoes instead of halloumi and the place was very well run especially since I have been told it had only been reopened the day before. Very good place to go for a relaxed brunch without sitting through a busy and commercial atmosphere that you would get from Starbucks and such, and you also have the chance to support the local business.

We used to love this cafe but it has taken a real dip in recent months. We visited a few months ago and found the cafe really grubby - I decided to give it another go this week to see if it had improved. It hasn’t. The tables were dirty (even after being cleared) and the two young staff were being constantly watched by another member of staff. They were selling Waitrose mince pies (the empty boxes were stacked up behind the till) for £1 each - you can buy a box of 6 for £1.25 at the moment. My toasted sandwich was greasy and soggy, not toasted through, and contained huge slabs of goats cheese. I love goats cheese, but it was far too much. The limp salad garnish was unappetising.

stopped by for a coffee and my husband had hot chocolate both very nice will definitely visit again.

Thursday 20th September – On a very rainy day, on our way to Farnham in Surrey. My husband and I made a stop late morning for a late breakfast at 12.30 at a pretty grey and cream bistro / cafe called ‘Coffee Smiths’ in Whitney.

Great little coffee shop with a limited but tasty menu. We visit regularly when in Witney but never treat ourselves to cake... until today. The banana cake with peanut and honey is outstanding. Paul Hollywood would be giving it top marks! Highly recommend

Didn't feel there was any atmosphere. Could do with a clean and expensive. Staff tried their best but need training it appears.

A great little cafe, small but has a nice atmosphere and nice food. Two little tables to sit outside also.

A lovely coffee shop where the staff are polite and friendly. We tend to go on a Sunday when it's less busy, but always have a great cuppa and the cakes aren't too bad either

My favourite coffee shop in Witney, with a cool atmosphere and good snacks and coffee. Informal atmosphere, not expensive, independent, with spirit.

If you know about good coffee, do your self a favour and go elsewhere. A very average brew, you can get FAR better in Witney.

We had a bowl of soup which is served with toasted sourdough bread here and it is a great place to have a snack. Staff are friendly, it's a nice quieter spot just off the High St. Food was good.

We popped in for coffee and a snack while visiting Witney. The coffee was excellent and the grilled sandwiches were on real fresh bread and nicely presented. Not the cheapest but excellent quality. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Met up with friends for an early morning get catch up. Lovely hot coffee. Can get busy quickly. A few seats available outside when the weather improves. Fresh food available.

Very cosy coffee house offering many different teas and coffees, also light snacks. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Clean and tidy in a shabby chic way. Ideal location to pop in for a break.

Really the best coffee in my opinion, and carefully made. Good fresh light lunch food and always welcoming service. Heard some interesting music a while ago too.

Stumbled across this coffee shop when visiting the area. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The sour dough toast was a generous portion and came with jam, marmalade or marmite. You could also bring your dog inside too. Would definitely return.

I’ll start with why I gave 4 stars and not the full 5. The cafe is very small and can often feel a bit like you are on top of each other. The tables are pretty close together which can be a bit distracting at times. However, this is not necessarily the café’s fault so maybe I am being a tad harsh. Just my view.

If you find yourself in Witney, for whatever reason that might be, and in need of a coffee and cake and a sit down this is the place to go. The staff are super lovely and the coffee is superb. They have a great selection of yummy cakes and nibbles. Very nice decor and comfy sofas and a world away from the coffee chains of which there are several in Witney. Perfect for a pitstop with granny or the kids. Its down a little alley off the back of the Waitrose car park, so not the easiest place to find if you are a newcomer but worth the effort!

Popped in for a coffee, which I often do, but felt I needed something savoury too! Decided on the Goats cheese, wild and spicy rocket and chutney! OMG fantastic is an understatement.

We went here for a coffee after reading positive reviews. Nice little cafe but the coffee was very watery and lacking in taste.

Friday 10th November – On a very cold but sunny day, on our way to Dorchester in South Oxfordshire for a relaxing weekend break. My husband and I made a stop mid morning for a late breakfast at 10.30 at a pretty grey and cream bistro / cafe called ‘Coffee Smiths’ in Whitney.

Small place, on one one of the walkways from parking to the high street. Staff very efficient with great service. Coffee great also.

Had a business meeting and coffee here today, wasn't sure if was going to work as its small and close but it worked perfectly. This is a great place and the coffee was perfect. The 2 young ladies in here are awesome, polite and professional and very welcoming too which is more than your getting at Costa and Nero at the moment. Will definitely be revisiting again soon for quiet coffee and some reading. Tops marks guys and keep up the great work

We visited nearby Cogges where coffeesmith also operate, so today tried their premises in town. We were not disappointed, we had great coffee and a delicious brunch. Thank you for providing great food and Service in a refreshing individual style.
