Great Malvern Deli in Malvern Hills

All fine - nice people, nice coffee and croissant, nice place. Recommended. Don't sit to the left of the forecourt space if you don't like the smell of patchouli that comes from the adjoining shop.

We visited for morning coffee on holiday in June, and had a great experience - excellent coffee, and the cakes were amazing. We enjoyed it so much, we travelled back for a second visit. Dog friendly, too.

Always great coffee, beautiful venue, my go to in Malvern! The cakes are worth trying too, especially the biscoff slice. Very yummy!

Great little coffee house, lovely food, and good service. On the negative side, you have difficulty finding a seat because of the number of tables taken up by people working on laptops and drinking one cup of coffee every 3 hours - very unfair on customers who wish to dine in!

Excellent cafe in Great Malvern. The cakes were marvellous. Good service and central location for wandering around the very elegant Great Malvern.

I just had the best ciabatta sandwich I've ever eaten, Mozzerella, Tomato and pesto. Totally delicious . The coffee was great too

I don't drink coffee but my partner assures me the mocha was fantastic. I was immediately offered water which I only ever experienced abroad before and was a really nice touch.

Loved it here! The foods amazing and the coffee is first class. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. Cheers

Fantastic coffee spot for any occasion. Ideal for walkers and shoppers. Great selection of cakes and drinks. Friendly staff, clean toilet.

Really good, well made coffee, friendly and efficient service and great carrot cake. Good pit stop on the way up or down the hills!

Seriously good coffee - these folk know how to make it - I am seriously fussy but their espresso is tops

Love the coffee and sweet treats, always busy so refreshing for locals to see an independent cafe do so well

Came for breakfast I ordered the granola, it said on the menu it came with blueberries and raspberries, when it came was told there was no raspberries left, but was still charged the full price. So very disappointed.

Lovely little find if you visit Malvern. Definitely recommend the Carrot and Walnut cake and the 'brookie'. The ciabatta sandwiches were really tasty especially the middle eastern and great Malvern deli. Staff were really friendly and helpful.

Quick and simple Staff very efficient and friendly Tasty food and good service Highly recommend.

Great great great coffee in a lovely space & nice staff - as a bit of a coffee nerd I had to have two flat whites - SO good! Thanks guys - keep up the good work 😊

You can't get better than this! (And I'm not even receiving a penny here! ) : ) I'm a local, (too) keen coffee drinker and this is the best place in Malvern. Plus the selection of teas isn't too bad either. Whilst others have come and gone, Tom managed to keep his shop going through 'Covid' times and beyond. All the staff are hard working and keen to provide the best service possible. And the 'homemade cakes' (vegan options available) are to die for!!

Cracking coffee but the ciabatta was a brilliant lunch find. We had the "great malvern" which was deli meats and cheese with quirky additional touches like sliced apple and garlic mayo and the "middle eastern" which was falafel, hummus, peppers and chilli jam. Fresh bread and fillings £6 each = absolute bargain. Delicious, we will return. Thank you

Excellent coffee as is the normal from this fantastic independent! As a self confessed coffee nerd I can highly recommend Abbey road coffee, roast was beautiful and you can tell the extraction was spot on. Staff always lovely and friendly too while you wait for your drink. Always try and visit when I'm in Malvern :)

I can’t stop thinking of the almond croissants (vegan), I don’t think I’ve ever had better and the coffee was lovely too. Great, friendly atmosphere. Will definitely return next time I’m in the area and will be taking a few croissant with me!

My regular coffee spot! The baristas are experts at their craft and you can tell they are passionate about coffee. Lovely little selection of pastries and cakes (vegan options too!) that are locally sourced just like the coffee beans. Staff are SO friendly, and the...

We visited after a day walking. Cost coffee shop with wonderful coffee and a quirky feel. Small choice of cakes, but good service.

Best coffee I’ve had in ages! Very nice coffee, well made, nice roast, great cup. Comfortable, miles better than a chain.

I popped in for a coffee - the flat white was really good, as was the cake. It has a really cheerful warm atmosphere, and the staff were lovely and kind.

The coffee was just the best I’ve tasted for a long time, smooth and strong. The toasted sandwich although quite expensive at £8, were delicious and elegantly served with a small salad and crisps - it was the bread from a local bakery that made...

Lovely friendly staff, good atmosphere, roomy, clean cafe and dog friendly too! Will definitely be returning very soon!

My wife and I popped in here while visiting Great Malvern, largely to dodge a shower! We only wanted coffees and a small cake but were really impressed by the atmosphere and service. In particular, the coffees were not only first class, but beautifully presented...

The almond croissant was probably about 2 million calories but I don't care it was simply the best croissant I have ever eaten - and they are my favourite pastry so do eat loads. Coffee was great too, and just generally a good place for...

Enjoyed a fantastic oat milk latte here and a Pete Cooks Bread vegan almond croissant- perfect I place to spend a slow Sunday morning. Friendly and efficient service

Coffee is really good and the staff are patient, polite and helpful. Small space inside but they make the most of it. I really like it here

A very good cup’o’Joe and generous cake portions. External area grubby. Book shop adjacent lovely…. Someone smelt of p*ss but that wasn’t the cafes fault. There go I but for the grace….

Tucked away gem in the town of Malvern. Coffee is good, cake selection excellent (salted caramel!) and plenty of GF options. Dog friendly as well.

Popped in while visiting Great Malvern . Dog friendly, lovely cakes, tea and coffee and a biscuit for the dog.

Had coffee and hot chocolate here last Monday. .The americano was ok but the chocolate was watery and weak. Asked for it to be strong with skimmed milk. Which was watered down and luke warm unable to drink more than half .

We really appreciate great coffee and Abbey Road did not disappoint. Great vegan cakes on offer and we also had a toasted sandwich. The staff are friendly and helpful. Dog friendly, vegan cakes, amazing coffee what’s not to like?! Our only complaint is we don’t...

This is without doubt the best artisan coffee shop on Malvern. Consistently excellent, great staff relaxed atmosphere and well fitted out. Nowhere else comes close..

wonderful coffee and helpful staff.we will always stop here for coffee in future on our way through .

Arrive for a coffee and delighted to see a spiced pumpkin latte. Also had the New York sandwich and loved everything it was so tasty and fresh! Definitely coming back for out lunch outings!

Lovely place with all cake vegan! We were so pleasantly surprised when we asked if any were vegan and were told all of them! Coffee was good, friendly staff.

Charming decor, and really great coffee and cakes. I had a slow drip coffee which was delicious, and a brownie/cookie thing which was out of this world. Friendly staff. Can't fault it.

Called in for coffee and cake.The choice of coffee is great and the cake was lovely.Staff were very friendly and helpful.Thanks Abbey Road, Will be back next time we are visiting the area.

I’ve wanted to visit this cafe for a long time. We stopped in for take-away drinks and were glad to be able to use our own cups. The oat milk hot chocolate was delicious. Unfortunately the experience was marred by the frosty reception we received...

Absolutely wonderful place for lunch and drinks. I would go everyday if I could. Ethical and delicious too

We has a great visit today, thank you! Fabulous coffees and hot chocolates. What an amazing range of cakes, it was so hard to decide. I hadn’t noticed that they were all vegan, and only realised when I checked out the Facebook page, in order...

They’ve redecorated inside since I last went and it’s a lot more modern. You have to wait outside as the till is right by the door and it’s a small space but you obviously have to social distance due to Covid. I ordered a soya...

Very poor. Product - basic Americano (which is always a good test of any coffee shop) was very bland and muddy - no creamy finish and milk was a bit of an afterthought ( also no spoon to stir in the milk was supplied despite...

Proud to support a local business who provide a great service. This month I have visited twice, both times having a lovely hot chocolate and cake. I will be back again very soon. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for providing a beautiful friendly space and super yummy vegan food for vegans and non vegans. You are ahead of the curve with your recent decision to charge extra for cows milk. We all have the power to create a kinder, more sustainable...

Great coffee shop! Coffees, teas, soft drinks, cakes & hot food are all fantastic. Can't recommend the place enough. I am a dairy and none dairy drinker and think the none dairy incentive is amazing, as most places charge extra for plant based. I just...

Awesome coffee and friendly staff! Cakes are incredible and it’s hard to believe they’re all vegan. Really good to see that plant based milk is being encouraged here. I have to have oat milk because of dietary needs and it’s a relief to not have...

Have been meaning to write a review since nipping in a few weeks ago. On recommendation I went for the Vegan Garlic Sausage Roll (I am not a vegan) These were absolutely delicious and the cakes I bought to follow were equally delicious (salted caramel and coffee and walnut) Didn’t try the coffee, but heard it is excellent, so will definitely be visiting again

Stopped for coffee and cake on a bike ride. Wore a mask as requested and used sanitiser provided. Decent social distancing inside. Friendly staff. Good cappuccino and cake which I ate outside, although there was an empty table inside

This place was always rather cold, even in the summer, but since covid it's more or less converted to a take-away with the doors permanently open and a steady queue of take away customers.The coffee is terribly variable from one day to the next and they only do take away cups sadly.

My wife wanted a drink, I didn’t need one, glad I did, Fabulous latte, hot and exceptionally smooth. Thoroughly recommend this little cafe

Delicious cakes, excellent coffee and very friendly staff. I live in malvern and visit regularly. Highly recommended.

Tucked away, some tables outside near the Priory. Very picturesque. Great coffee and all cakes vegan!!

A lovely little cafe with delicious cakes! All cakes are vegan with a few that are gluten free as well, which is fantastic for people like me who can't eat gluten and are vegan. The coffee was delicious also, with vegan milk alternatives and compostable cups.There were a variety of sandwiches and savory baked goods available, loads of vegan options like vegan pasties and sausage rolls. However there was nothing gluten free to eat for lunch other than cakes, which was the only downside. Fantastic for vegans, great for cake and coffee, but not the place to go for gluten free lunch options. Nevertheless still a lovely place to visit. ❤️ Staff very friendly.

A great stop for tourists, perfect assortment of cakes,drinks, and much more, the staff are friendly, and the service is superb! my favorite drink there is the chai latte. they also have extras for the drinks, so you can customise your drinks to you liking.

If you want something different, come here! Amazing simple tasty food before you realise its also vegetarian (coming from a meat eater), great coffee too, definitely going to return, often full with regulars

Good location with good views from the seats by the windows, but coffee cups could be bigger, and the courtyard toilets are disgusting - sort them out!!

We’ve been here a few times now and their food never disappoints. They are a vegetarian cafe with the option of making most meals vegan too. Their menu is diverse enough that if you are a meat eater you wouldn’t miss it. There’s so much lovely food to choose from and it’s all fresh.They also have a decent range of cakes which are delicious. There’s lots of different options for coffee and tea, the owners passion for the products is clear to see. I’d definitely recommend visiting.

We arrived at 12:30 to find all of the upstairs seating taken. We were very quickly directed to their downstairs 'cavern' with heating. Order was taken: 2 oat hot chocolates, a Reuben toastie and a veggie ball sub with cheesy tomato sauce. Really tasty, harm free meals! Staff were polite and friendly. Definitely number one for plant based lunches in Malvern.

This is a vegan jewell in the crown of Malvern. Five adults and one toddler we all arrived without booking for a breakfast at 10am. Already busy we managed to secure two tables and sat down to choose from the menu and wow!! Everything is vegan!! So happy!! The staff were friendly and the atmosphere relaxed. Efficient service and stunning food. We chose between us the full vegan breakfasts, sausage and cheese toasties and a jam bagel for the toddler. Such tasty treats and fab portion sizes I can’t recommend this place enough for vegans and well, all people alike. I will definitely be coming back and can’t wait to make my way though their extensive menu. We also bought some cakes to take home with us and they were to die for! Moist, fresh and comforting. Absolute first class establishment!!

I went with my family for breakfast this morning and had the full Vegan breakfast. Nice relaxed atmosphere and their tofu scramble was very good.Had a Viennese whirl to take home and it was lovely. Will definitely return as want to try the Biscoff cupcake next!If you have plant milk you make a saving of 10p per cup - the opposite of whacking an extra 40p on like Costa!Highly recommend.

I am local, however this is the first time I've been here. It seems popular, however table surfaces were sticky and there is every little room between tables. Food was not out of this world (we had breakfasts). While waiting (a very long time) for our food the young people creating the food had clearly burnt the previous customers toast and the unmistakable sound of burnt toast scraping came over the counter. When it finally arrived food was average at best. Vegan sausage sandwich was very greasy. Such a shame. Probably won't go again.

I am a Malvernite but strangely never been here until last week. Lovely cafe with lots of regular locals using it. Dog friendly too and that was nice to see. Coffee is good and I had carrot cake which was very nice. My friend had the soup and that looked delicious and came with some very nice bread. This is somewhere I shall be visiting again!

This coffee shop is located next to the Priory church. The interior is not very large but there are also some outside tables. It has a very modern interior. We enjoyed two good quality flat whites which cost £5.60.

I called in for a hot drink and despite the name of the café ordered a pot of tea with vanilla sponge cake. Both of these served promptly and were of good quality.

Friendly, laid back coffee house between the Post Office and the Abbey Hotel. Good coffee and the local pastries were excellent (can't remember their actual name).

We were recommended by some locals to try this cafe because of it being so dog friendly whilst we visited Malvern recently.

After a great stay in Malvern, we popped into Abbey Road Coffee for breakfast.

Beautiful dark hot chocolate with delicious cakes. Service very friendly which was so much appreciated on a wet cold day

This cafe is a hidden gem - amazing dark hot chocolate and beautiful cakes. I had blueberry and almond cake which was fresh and moist and just delicious. My friend had the dark chocolate cherry and marzipan slice which was also fabulous. Lovely friendly staff. Thank you for a lovely experience

This cafe looked interesting and proved to be a great place for tea and delicious home made ginger cake. The Abbey Road theme extends to some Beatles related items which were great.

A nice café, just up the slope from the Priory. Cosy informal décor and furniture with friendly service. The Parsnip and lemon with cranberry cakes were tasty as was the pea, spinach and pesto soup (with big slices of bread). Decaf cappuccino and an americano were both good. Will definately visit again.

Staff were excellent brought all food and drinks out to table. Everything was very tasty but be prepared the minimum price of a hot drink is £2.50

Lovely little coffee shoppe...dog friendly! Good eats, coffee and tea! Will visit as much as possible while we are here! Customer service is lovely too!

I have visited Abbey Road many times and have never been disappointed. There's a good choice all round and their buddha bowls are outstanding. I highly recommend the cakes - don't be put off by the fact they're vegan, they are truly delicious and luscious. Really nice staff too.

As a local person I like to support independent businesses, so called in for coffee late morning. Sat facing serving counter and could not help but observe staff. One in particular, who I assumed was on food prep was standing doing something with her mobile phone whilst twisting her hair, putting her fingers in her mouth and around her nose. An order came for food, mobile away no washing of hands straight onto handling food. Owner needs to take action as washing hands is basic health and safety. Would I visit again, yes for coffee. Would I order food, not at the moment.

Lovely atmosphere with a great selection of coffees available! The staff are very warm and welcoming, received an excellent vanilla Flat White from Ruth (?), will definitely be returning soon!

Good coffee and unusual sandwich options which don’t disappoint. Nice to see a independent venture up against the usual high street choices offer something different with a cool vibe in a great location. They say the little things make a difference and they do. After leaving my wallet there, they kindly returned it in the post to me. I doubt the big three coffee franchises would have cared or bothered. Support you’re local independents and good luck to Abbey Road cafe try something different and give it a spin.

Called in for coffee as said it was dog friendly, had nice coffee and was tempted by their home bakes to go wit it which were also excellent,.

Finally found some time to visit here after passing it many times. The coffee was good (not spectacular, but no disgrace) and my companions' teas were very good. Didn't eat but the food also looked appetising and those around us were enjoying theirs. Service was more prosaic than I imagined, but perfectly OK. Will be back and would recommend ahead of the chain coffee shops in the town (not because I'm anti-Costa/Nero per se, but simply because I think it's better).

Visited twice during my recent stay in Malvern. Good coffee, pleasant staff, nice ambience. Recommended.

Lovely place for a strong tasty coffee and amazing sweet treats - lots of vegan options and all delicious. Well worth a visit!

Nice little cafe to stop off at during a stroll around Malvern. Some outside seating for a nice sunny day. Good Americano with apple & raspberry cake. Delicious!

We stopped here for coffee and cake and it was lovely. Good, strong coffee and a great choice of what looked like homemade cakes. We chose raspberry and (I think) vanilla, which was delicious, but the orange cake and chocolate cakes looked fantastic as well. Not sure what else is on the menu, but I did see some nice looking sandwiches, teacakes and croissants being served to other people. Nice location near the priory and also close to the shops. Well worth a visit.

Good coffee .. nice slice of cake but cake was a little pricey tho tasty .. friendly staff .. good service

I passed by this place at lunchtime and it was very busy, I thought to myself that this must be a good spot to relax. Later in the day, after a busy time exploring Great Malvern, I decided to pop in for some afternoon tea and cake. I have to say I was rather disappointed with the whole experience. The staff seemed more interested in joking and chatting with each other and neglected to bring me what I had ordered until I reminded them. I didn't linger any longer than I had to, did not have the relaxed vibe I anticipated.

Café run by locals - Spartan interior - great windows so can see lots going on outside - good food and coffee at reasonable prices - not a chain!

Great place to stop for coffee and excellent cake with the dog after a hike over the Malvern Hills.

Have always seemed to manage to be here when this place is closed, but called in and had a good flat white. Atmosphere was very laid back, and rather got the impression that Mac and Jac's had stolen its thunder a little - definitely a buzz there that - on this visit -was lacking here. That could be down to a dreich day, so will be happy to have an excuse to try it out again.

Nice cafe with a great selection of sandwiches across 3 menus - one vegan, one vegetarian and a third for meat eaters. Good selection of cakes too.

Was a frequent customer but almost given up now. Used to love their toast (I think Peter Cook bread) but last twice I have been in the toast has been the cheapest thinnest supermarket bread you can get. But that hasn't stopped the price going up - I think twice so far this year! Probably the most expensive tea and toast in Malvern.

I really enjoyed three visits here, two first thing and one lunch. The front staff are young and friendly and bring a nice energy to the place. They are happy to tweak things and make a great cup of coffee. Lovely cakes and baked and salad etc. There’s lots of choice. Was busy at lunchtime but everyone served. And they open at 9am on Sunday morning!

needed an afternoon pick up and stopped her for coffee and ice cream. service a little slow but ok as we were not rushed on this occasion.. Barista wouldn't cope in Italy.

A lovely coffee shop with a great blend of coffee. A good range of vegan options with the hot food too.

Nice little coffee shop just up from the abbey. We had coffee and an almond croissant which was great. Friendly staff.

A fun place with friendly service and Amazing cakes worth asking for. Amazing drinks and clean and tidy.

Had a latte and a Rueben sandwich. Wasn’t wowed by the coffee which wasn’t hot and was very small cup. For the size the coffee was expensive. The room was cold and not very comfortable. The Rueben sandwich was good.
