Had a beautiful afternoon tea, the food, presentation and service were perfect. I'd had the boxed brownies before posted as a gift and was impressed and this certainly lived up to my expectations.

Weve just had a Business lunch delivered for all of our staff . There were lots of choice from various sandwiches, very fresh fruit , crisps, home made sausage rolls and chocolate brownies which all went down a treat. The quality was excellent and would highly recommend Colline's Kitchen . Thank you Colline youve made our Friday .Mike and Rebecca Ruesing @ Motech Autocentres Ltd

Colline recently made a wedding cake and lots of brownies for our wedding. We had lots of lovely comments about them and we enjoyed working with Colline in advance of the day. She experimented with new flavours based on some of our ideas, which was great fun. Colline went above and beyond for us on the day, even offering to go and collect the cake topper we had forgotten. We found Colline to provide excellent quality at a totally reasonable price. Would highly recommend Colline for sweet treats and catering.

Colline catered a yoga retreat at Wasing for me and she was utterly brilliant. She spent time on zoom calls making sure we got the menu's right and catered for all dietary needs, as well as some fussy eaters and everyone was so happy. Her healthy vegan snacks, the bounty bars and ginger fudge and millionaire bites were amazing... better than the originals! She cooked dinner at the Wasing farmhouse and served it straight to the dining room and again everyone was catered for, both meat eaters and vegans and the fusspots. She was just a pleasure to work with from beginning to end and the fact her food is delicious means I would use her again in a heartbeat.

Everyone was so very impressed with how the special birthday cake Colline made for my husband's birthday party looked and tasted. Particularly as my son-in-law’s Mum, who always makes their family birthday cakes makes beautiful looking cakes. But they are always really solid and not good tasting. Such a waste. No fears of that being the case with Colline's cake I was so pleased that Colline agreed to do a separate individual gluten free cake for the coeliac who was attending our party. And that went down just as well as the big cake. Thank you Colline!

We ordered a bacon / avocado sourdough sandwich, along with a salad bowl, halloumi as extra. We waited and waited ……… and waited. It seemed that people asking for drinks with/without cakes were being served first. On enquiring, we were told the kitchen was very busy; ‘just the halloumi to do. About 5 minutes’. Eventually, after 45minutes( at least) the food arrived. The salad looked and was good. The sandwich with crisps on the side was a mere plate of unappetising beige. Such a shame as the canal location was appealing. We cannot recommend.

On my first visit my parents and I had tea and coffee, all piping hot and very nice. My mother had banana cake with chocolate chips. I had a really tasty pulled pork in pastry, like a posh sausage roll. It was served with some kettle chips and a very nice caramelised onion marmalade. We thoroughly enjoyed it and our table overlooking the canal with all its swans was very pleasant. Will definitely visit again.

After a quick google and a glance at the pretty pictures on Insta, we chose Colline’s Kitchen for lunch. We weren’t disappointed. Good vegetarian choices, substantial portions and quick service. The prices were reasonable too. Only negative was that my soup was really cold. If I’d had time to queue up again, I would have asked them to reheat it, but we were on the clock. It tasted great though. The bacon sandwich and the very meaty sausage roll got full marks, Coffee was delicious, cakes looked good. I’ll have one next time.

Coffee tasted pretty good. Waited 10 minutes for a vegan sausage roll to be heated up, and it was pretty grim, it was like 95 percent a giant slab of weird vegan sausage that tasted like cheap sausage meat, and 5 percent surrounded by a soft, soggy pastry. In a box with 10 crisps and some chutney, for 4 pounds. I saw a review about a vegan brownie but nope, no vegan cakes available, staff didn't know which were vegan and which weren't. For the coffee - a young man asked me to pour my own milk... Not sure why. It was cold from the carton. 2 vegan bagels on the menu, one sun-dried tomato and VE cream cheese and another with just simply friend mushrooms and chives. Bit dull and plain and a little weird, didn't appeal. I really wanted to support a local business and the staff were friendly, nothing stood out for service but they didn't do anything wrong, except asking me to pour the milk a bit odd. The main sticking point was the sausage roll was just very weak. It's like - if you can't even be bothered to try with that, then how can you expect people to come back for it, when they have to go out of their way, off the highstreet, and pay a premium and wait for so long, for a poor product, why would they gonna make the effort to support you, when they can get a vegan sausage roll from Greggs? Cheaper, better product and more convenient. As I said I like to support smaller businesses, I DON'T agree that people SHOULD go to Greggs over these places but if you are going to fail on all those areas I've listed above, then you need to consider how you can expect people to support you. There's nothing of my experience that is tempting me to come back whatsoever. Such a shame because the placement by the canal is good, nice looking indoor seating and staff were pretty friendly. Finally the menu, Google listing, and the website had conflicting opening times, and NO menu could be found ANYWHERE online. Not on the website, not on the Google listing.

We are a local manufacturing business in Newbury and order from Collines at least a few times a month when we host customers. The food is always fantatsic. the allergy instructions are clear, they always cater the menu to different requirements. The presentation is fantastic and they always deliver on time, even with last minute changes. The lunch is always highly praised by our customers and I suspect thats a key reason for all the return meetings

I have been to Colline's both personally and used her to cater for work events and I am always impressed by the standard of food. Nothing is ever too much. she has catered Lasagne for 22 people as a work event, allowing for allergies and food preferences and all the food arrived hot and delicious! If we ever need to give Colline feedback she takes this onboard and is always sorted for the next instance and any after, but this rarely comes up. Colline has also got involved in our social events judging our ginger bread houses and it is clear to see her and the team as well as the cafe have a hugely positive impact on the community.

Definitely the best coffee shop/eatery in Newbury! The staff are friendly, informative, efficient and helpful. The food is home made, piping hot, wholesome, seasonal and varied. The venue is spotlessly clean, comfortable, beautifully situated on the edge of the Kennet and has lots of seating. There are sofas on the ground floor, outdoor seating and a first floor with fantastic views over the canal. I cannot rate this place highly enough. I have been 4 times in the last month and had the fantastic mushroom soup with a pesto toastie on the last visit. Newbury SO needs this coffee shop/eatery and Colline’s kitchen is a valuable asset to the Waterside Centre. The jewel in the crown!

Colline made the most beautiful cake for my daughter's 12th birthday. She was so pleased with it as I was - her smile said it all. Absolutely amazing decoration and the best chocolate cake we've had by far. The biggest compliment I think is when a friend's husband who doesn't really like cake asks for more! Says it all really. Colline you are amazing and so talented. When your 12 year old wells up in the car after collecting it as she didn't expect to ever have a "professional cake for her birthday" (Her words) It literally made me so grateful that you had made it for her. She also said how lovely you are! 🥰 Thank you so much. You are an amazing lady through and through.

We stopped in here while we were in town yesterday and had a really lovely meal. Service was fast and friendly, and the food was delicious and filling. Huge portions too, so you definitely won't be left feeling hungry. The ramp to get in the front door is quite steep if you're on your own in a wheelchair, but shouldn't cause too many problems if you have someone there to help you grab the door. For cyclists, there's also a bike rack just to the left before you go in. One of the best lunches we've had in Newbury in a long time. We'll definitely be coming back.

We chatted to Colline all evening, who is a really lovely and interesting person. There was loads of food, and Colline even bagged up the leftovers for us to take home!

I had to kill a couple of hours whilst my car was fixed and wanted somewhere with WiFi where I was welcome to nurse a couple of coffees and a sandwich whilst I did some work. I didn't want to just use a chain, so I looked online and found Colline's place. As a small business, like my own, I thought I'd email ahead to be sure they didn't think I would be taking liberties. Colline mailed back welcoming me!On the morning I arrived at the cosy spot and was offered a table closest to the power socket for my laptop. The coffee ordered was lovely! That's where it all started to go off the rails. I thought I'd get some work done but ended up in an engaging chat with my hostess that was joined in by some fellow customers. We had a lovely time chatting, learning and generally be sociable human beings. What a great change from the clinical chains. The time flew by and I eventually left feeling like I'd actually lived the time not killed it!

Everything about this place is amazing! The cakes, the service and location! You're in the heart of the town centre but feel like you're in your own private oasis. Colline and her team are so welcoming and friendly. You can also take dogs there too which is a bonus for us.

Fantastic food with great staff, Colleen gave a nice big welcome when we walked in and we felt right at home. I got the buddha bowl and my wife got the cake and they were both delicious and well priced!

What an addition to the Newbury lunch scene. I popped in for a take away lunch yesterday and decided on the veggie (I'm not vegetarian) quiche with salads. I was served by the nicest friendliest person you could possibly meet. The quiche was the best I have ever eaten and the salads were yummy especially the courgette spaghetti. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes including the home made cakes.

I visited this vibrant cafe for lunch yesterday and it was such a lovely experience from start to finish. I had the mediterranean vegetable quiche and sweet potato and puy lentil salad. I couldn’t resist having a slice of the Victoria sponge cake too! All of this was topped off by the cheerful and friendly service given by Colline. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

I go here regularly. Small friendly little cafe in the village shop. Sometimes buy as popular with hikers and cyclists in the area as well as being used by us locals. Fantastic for a brief cuppa, with excellent barrista coffees and pots of tea with an excellent range of made locally or in house cakes, sausage rolls, pasties etc. Some rather fantastic 'salad' options [coleslaw] made freshly to accompany the above and there's always a good 'soup of the day', again made freshly. Wonderful people watching either indoors or out and really friendly volunteers running this community owned cafe. Highly recommended.

A refreshing new restaurant. Amazing food and decor. Staff friendly. We would definitely go again to try out the other dishes. An enjoyable lunch on a very hot day in air condition. Perfect 🤩
