Where do I start... Our usual breakfast/brunch cafe was fully booked, so thought we would try The Fountain. Ordered two breakfasts and two teas. The breakfast priced at £10.90 was so overpriced for what you got - bacon just a sliver, toast the smallest I have seen, one hash brown (usually get two), baked beans were cold - the only thing on the plate which was excellent was the sausage. The final straw was two teas priced at £2.90 each which was a very large pot of hot water, two tea bags and this made the tea so weak we left it. Great staff, very polite, very clean, but what a disgrace for a breakfast. It seems that if you go in there for a cake and a drink, then it is acceptable, but in my opinion, if I am spending £28 on breakfast and tea, I don't want to come out feeling hungry. Shall NOT be going back and avoid if you want hot food - so overpriced for what you get.

Stumbled unpin this gorgeous little establishment by accident and were very glad we did! Service was friendly and quick. We enjoyed a milkshake and tea with bread pudding and flapjack.

My husband and I enjoyed a fantastic brunch at the lovely, cosy Fountains Mall in Odiham 😊 Service was very quick, and very friendly! The food was of excellent quality, and the coffee shop is extremely clean. Thanks for a great time! Would definitely recommend 😊

Excellent place. I'm a cyclist and the atmosphere is very relaxing. Coffee is very nice and it's my first choice for the Odiham area. Staff are friendly and efficient and I always feel welcome. It's just a shame that they don't open on Sundays as that's the main ride day for many cyclists.

The staff are always so friendly, the food is great and the coffee is delicious. They have lovely little toys for kids. It’s a family run business and is a staple in Odiham.

Popped in for 2 coffees following a cycle in the area. Staff weren't wearing any ppe equipment and there were little C19 precautions which I found surprising and the coffee we did get was weak and insipid. Had to go back for another shot to make the coffee taste of anything and was charged for it. They need to up their game, lucky for them they are the only coffee shop in town I guess.

I went here with a group who assured me that their website stated that "gluten free and vegan options are always available". My fault, perhaps not doing my due diligence. The glutenful food did look good. The place was very busy, the staff and customers were friendly, and the coffee was nice. You order at the counter and then they bring the food over. There is nothing on the menu that states what contains gluten which is always a red flag for me. So asking at the counter, I could choose from a slice of apple cake, and a toastie but with gluten free bread. I went with the cake, and it was quite tasty. If you would have gone with the toastie I would advise to ask about a separate prep area, toaster, changing gloves, etc. to ensure there is no cross contamination. Overall, I would expect gluten free to be more thought out if you are going to mention it on the website. There are other places in the area I would try instead for a gluten free meal.

Staff uninterested - three at counter, no acknowledgement that I was waiting for a good few mins. One drink comes along, then a dog enters the coffee shop which is petted by staff who then bring the second drink (coffee which had a strange taste) along without any hand washing taking place. (carried the cup with both hands by the rim/top)Food then comes along with a server who doesn't actually know what our meals are - thinks the mozzarella in the toastie is egg!Toastie dry, cubes of chicken and bacon - not slices/rashers. Mozzerella (not egg) is cold - not toasted or melted. Sausage sandwich has two black hairs in two separate parts. Ignored the first hair as mistakes happen, but two is poor. Took it to the counter where it was taken to the kitchen. Could hear the kitchen staff say they couldn't see any hair. Not great. Couldn't have taken more than three bites (thank goodness!). Received a refund for the already overpriced hairy sandwich, but wouldn't return or recommend at all.

I visit it here regularly, after dropping my son off for the school bus or to meet a work colleague. Food is always good and service is efficient, and the home made cakes are very good too. If you require some food in Odiham during the day then this place does the job.

Met some colleagues for Breakfast and had a Bacon and Sausage sandwich on thick bread. The sausages and bacon were delicious and all of the other food on offer looked fantastic. You can find this place in the little arcade just off the high street and well worth a visit whether it is for breakfast or lunch. The staff are freindly and accomadtaing.

I am not sure why this coffee shop in Odiham get such high reviews. Staff are not accommodating and prices are quite steep for the value of the meal. Coffee is not great and certainly not the best in Odiham. Save yourself the bother and go somewhere nicer.

Popped in here today for coffee and cake. The staff were lovely, the lattes were fabulous and so was possibly the best cake I've had for years. My husband had chocolate cake - which was light as a feather with no artificlal taste, and I had a lemon sponge cake with lemon buttercream. I think I possibly died and went to heaven there for just a moment! We'll definitely be back to this lovely coffee shop, probably try lunch next time. Thank you.

A lovely little cafe in The Fountains Mall on Odiham High Street. You can indulge in a luscious slice of cake over a cuppa, as well as breakfasts, baked potatoes, salads, soup, sandwiches and a specials board. Everything is freshly prepared. They cater for vegetarian and gluten free diets, and open from 8am. Friendly staff, great atmosphere and I thoroughly recommend a visit.

Definitely one of my favourite lunchtime cafes. Home made sandwiches on thick chunky bread - good portions - Jacket pots and breakfasts - whatever you fancy it is cooked or prepared there on ordering. Huge selection of Home made cakes if you want to really spoil yourself and the bread they use is normally on sale so I always buy a large granary loaf to take away. Good selection of presse drinks and hot drinks and such a homely friendly feel to the place. I had a jacket potato with tuna (which was generously portioned)with salad and it was a good plateful so good value for money and someone had the breakfast which was impressive - it is not expensive in here and offers excellent value for money and is baby friendly xx

Live locally and I popped in this coffee shop for a milkshake for my daughter to takeaway. They didnt have all the ingredients,so the lady said she could make another using something different. She proceeded to make it and when poured into the cup was only just over half full! I presumed that she was going to say something but she handed it to young assistant on the till and said it would be £3.60 (same price as a full milkshake to takeaway!) and then walked out the door. Really seemed otherwise occupied and didnt seem to notice. Really poor customer service and over priced,such a shame as Odiham is a lovely place with other nice places to eat and drink and just not what I would have expected. Certainly will not return and advise others to check out the other places in the high street.

We have been trying out the places by us to find the best fry up and came here. I booked a table as I knew it was going to be busy, drinks and food order taken quickly and no waiting to get seated. What I didn’t expect was it to take over 20 minutes for us to get the drinks order after watching the two other couples seated considerably after us get theirs first and for me to have to prompt a waitress. When they arrived it was only half the order of drinks and told us the coffee will be with us shortly. Ironically enough when the coffee turned up another five minutes later the waitress stated “didn’t have to wait too long then”. Which made us speechless. During the wait we were sat near the terrace doors which a few of the staff kept leaving open. Granted - if you’re taking food out it’s understandable. However a couple of them were empty handed and being lazy, the older waiter did make an effort to close it. The food turned arrived about 30 minutes after ordering and was really nice albeit not that warm and the whole delay on the drinks but a damper on it. To follow on from the door saga - whilst trying to eat the breakfast a specific waitress kept leaving the door open letting gusts of cold wind in making the food colder. After I got up for the third time to close it and my boyfriend told the girl to stop leaving it open it only stopped once I told the older waiter what kept happening. Safe to say for the price of the food, I would expect better service and the staff to have more common sense - so we won’t be returning!
