Kiosk at The Park in Bedford

The Kiosk in the Park serves perfect coffee and hot chocolate, their almond energy balls are delicious. Always a good atmosphere and pleasant staff, in particular Trevor.

We love coming to the kiosk in Russell Park, Trevor is so friendly and welcoming. He knows what we are having and has it ready when he sees us. The other staff are friendly and have excellent customer service which is why we keep coming back rather than go to other places in bedford to walk our 2 labradors. Would definately recomend a visit.

Floriana is the best dicsine on the drink Levo it amazing food drinks and Google review to live it so I can get more stuff

The Kiosk provides a wonderful warm welcome and amazing coffee. Trevor and the team are all really friendly, they always provide great service and take care when making the coffee so it's always spot on. If you are enjoying a walk along the embankment in Bedford I'd definitely recommend stopping off here for a coffee on your wander.

Had a great coffee today served by a very friendly and helpful barista called Trevor. This is a lovely place to stop for a good quality, great tasting coffee whilst strolling through the park or along the river.

Floriana had exceptional service and was very friendly towards us and all her customer s. She made us feel very welcome in this community and her warm-hearted behaviour gave us a unique and special experience. She deserves a raise.

The Kiosk is a welcoming coffee stop at any time of the year, just to call in and get a friendly greeting from Trevor and team, who run the place so efficiently, and always a superb coffee. They also do juices and snacks. Ideally situated on the edge of Russell Park and next to the river embankment, it’s an oasis for dogwalkers (free dogtreats!) and a great spot for a rendezvous or just to get a warming brew on a chilly day. So valuable as we move into autumn and winter!

Super lovely and leafy outdoor cafe/kiosk with a warm community feel. Delicious smoothies and iced coffees - also v. dog friendly and equipped with water bowls and a little treat jar on the counter. Shout out to Trevor who especially makes the Kiosk feel warm and friendly with good service, remembering the regulars names and keeping loyalty cards up to date :) We will keep coming back!

Friendly staff and great iced coffee, can't go wrong! Perfect for grabbing a drink and enjoying the park or embankment.

Great service by Trevor who was super helpful and friendly. Very Enjoyable experience. Lovely tables adjacent to Bedford Park and woodlands. The Smoothies, Chocolate Milkshake and brownies are 5 star, best ever tasted and I’ve just come Off a 5 star cruise! Thank you!

I took the kids for a special treat, they had the Classic Cockrell and the Strawberry Delight. Both went down very quickly :-) The kiosk is well situated near the play park and was very well kept.

A fantastic start to day, great coffee a friendly smile and lovely location. Great choice of smoothies, juices and delicious snacks too.

great place, we go a few times a week for a walk & coffee. Well made tasty coffee, service with a smile! nice work team

Excellent smoothies and coffee! Friendly service from the guys in the kiosk today and lovely park and riverside to enjoy it in. What’s not to like! Thanks

Friendly staff and really nice relaxing place! Great variety of smoothies and milkshakes! Totally recommended 😍😍

Popped in with some friends, the place was heaving at 11 am , we went in for coffee, which was excellent, but are definitely going back for the food. It looked amazing

Slowest service I’ve ever experienced. Waiting 15 minutes behind one person that 3 members of staff were serving , well making drink for. Utter ridiculous and no apology. Take my custom elsewhere any day

A really lovely small kiosk cafe in Russell Park. Has lots of tings going on and is always welcoming. Many goodies to tempt you.

We love coming to play Mini Golf here. Drinks/food is expensive but the prices to play Mini Golf is reasonable. Only bad thing is that they close way too early. They should be open until 7pm in the summer.

I've just spent 2 wonderful days in Russell Park with my Australian nephews aged, 2, 7 and 10. As the focal point Kiosk at the Park offers wonderful snacks for all. The milk and cookies with straw were a real winner as were the gingerbread men! Friendly staff, tables decorated with local wild flowers and toys for the little ones meant that my lovely flat white could be enjoyed in a calm and pleasing environment before embarking on an 18 hole putting course.The kiosk oversees the golf and the table table tennis and the play park is just around the corner.What more could you want for a few hours with children. A perfect stop off point with little touches for all ages!

Great little kiosk caters for quick snacks and afternoon teas. Prices are very reasonable. A great place for families.

I visit here now again when in the park and usually enjoy a sandwich and a cake with a coffee. The staff are always friendly and polite. Its quite unique in its set up and a lovely place to sit and enjoy the scenery next to you, especially the River Embankment.

Located in the far corner , by the tennis courts, and the children’s play area in Russel Park , this is very convenient for a nice cuppa and tasty cake. It’s only a few minutes stroll from the embankment . Outdoor seating only . There is free parking , on this stretch of the embankment and on the local streets.

Great cappuccino and tea went down nicely with a cookie and a slice of yummy Victoria sponge. Nice and buzzy in the sun. Although a small operation just what you need as you walk up the Embankment and in need of some refreshments.

Nice for early morning Coffee outside in fresh air..Lovely cake too..You can also take away drinks and enjoy walk by river..Peaceful outdoors..Perfect

Nos detuvimos en el quiosco para café en una muy fría mañana de enero y nos quedamos encantados mantas para ser ofrecidos y botellas de agua caliente durante nuestra visita. Nos recibieron con una sonrisa a pesar de estar claramente bastante frío en el quiosco y el café era bueno también. Cada parque debería tener uno!

A real asset to Russell Park - pleasant staff and a good offering of light bites, with children well catered for. It's only a tiny place so limited menu offerings and quite often a queue, but still very welcome and worth a visit.

Lovely service from Charlie who was a superstar turning out great coffees and a warm welcoming smile even under pressure.

This place has a lovely setting and friendly staff, but, we ordered beans on toast for the kids and it took ages! Keeping kids entertained was hard enough but also hungry too was a bit frustrating especially an easy meal. I still scored if 4 as I do like this place but needs to speed up a bit.

Regularmente visitamos el kiosco como nuestros niños les encanta jugar en la zona de juegos para niños en las inmediaciones. El café es bueno, así como la selección de pasteles. Los niños también aman la selección de libros para niños disponibles para ellos para leer. La única cosa que prevenir darle 5 estrellas es que creo que los costes son un poco elevados.

Offers excellent food, reading for children, nearby outstanding play area with warm, family atmosphere, plus great mini golf course.

Mi marido y yo a menudo subir al tren para venir aquí con nuestro hijo, no hace falta decir que ama el parque infantil - grandes para trepar, toboganes y columpios para los niños. Hay algunas zonas de estar, pero siempre se puede sentar en la hierba, o aventurarse a kiosco en el parque con unas cuantas mesas pequeñas - un precioso pequeño lugar! Té, café, tarta (siempre hay al menos una opción gratuita de productos lácteos - Happy niño! ), sándwiches. barato y la diversión pitch & putt y tenis de mesa se paga a través del quiosco.

Gran ubicación para un kiosco de refrescos y los propietarios no pierdas la oportunidad. Me encanta la sensación de comunidad el kiosco y la manera en que promover y organizar todo tipo de actividades. Las bebidas son siempre bien preparada y casero jaulas, etc. son vale la pena probar! ¡Gracias!

Una buena selección de alternativas saludables, cafés y tés herbales, acceso a un green, otros juegos y avisos, actividades para niños al lado del parque

Visited the Kiosk during a leisurely walk with baby and dog along the Embankment/Russell Park. There aren't many places where I can grab a drink and or food with the dog in tow, so this was ideal. Nice selection of food, cakes and drinks, which are not "run of the mill" and I imagine varies day by day. Lots of options for tea and coffee and food for children. There are tables and chairs, all outdoors, though I think some are sheltered, toilets and a table tennis table for hire. Lovely spot in the park near the children's playground. I had a toasted (I can't remember the name) salami, mozzarella, roasted pepper and olive pannini (YUM!) and a bottle of sloe lemonade. Only slight downside was that my pannini took a while, there were only three of us (two with drinks only) being served on this chilly sunny day, but who cares when you're not in a rush. Will definitely drop by again on future walks!

Taking the grandchildren to Russell Park has the added bonus of the Kiosk to finish off the experience - not as good as the one in Bedford Park but it is well worth the visit while at the park.

The cleverest use of a tiny kiosk. A welcome hot cup of tea after a bracing dog walk, and tempting cakes that are too hard to resist, just what i needed, thank you!

So excited when the kiosk opened, so disappointed with quality of coffee, Every few months I have given it another go in hope of improvement, it gets worse & the quality of children's biscuits, I dread to think how old the cookies are sometimes, most cakes & biscuits completely uncovered.The only decent coffee in Bedford is at "Foods of Italy" on Bower street! & they do Take away.Would love to support the kiosk, hopefully it will improve.

As a coffee lover I have found my perfect skinny latte here and there are always some tempting cakes too.

The Kiosk is the perfect place to stop for a hot chocolate and some delicious homemade cake. There are hot water bottles and rugs when it gets chilly and story time for kids. The staff are friendly and knowledgable and it's the only decent place to go in the area. I hear a sister cafe has now opened in Bedford Park which has also had great reviews and I'll be popping in there soon to try their delicious looking eggs Benedict! These places are just what Bedford has been waiting for.

We moved to Bedford last year and are big fans of the kiosk. Now we have a very young baby and it's a great place to meet or stop when out walking or playing with kids. Such a great asset to Bedford to help us make the most of Russell Park and staff are friendly. It can get busy especially on a sunny day so there is sometimes a bit of a queue. There is a little bit of shelter for when it rains. Lovely coffee and delicious cakes. They also have pretty local flowers on the tables and there are nice touches like blankets and hot water bottles for winter. There is a notice board for local businesses and community events. Over the summer there were a few events on and there are storytimes for kids in the week. All in all a lovely little place.Keep up the excellent work!Kat & Ed x

I found this restaurant by mistake and was very pleased with what I found. The people were friendly and helpful, the overall setup was great, blankets for keeping warm, gloves and hot water bottles for the same reason. It was a breath of fresh air to find an establishment that was totally geared to make its customers as comfortable as possible. Well done people.

The Kiosk is an excellent spot for a quick pit stop, leisurely coffee and cake with friends and for activities for all ages. Emma and team have created a true gem in the park - there really is something for everyone. I have visited the team's latest venue, The Pavilion, in Bedford Park and that is also excellent!

Great coffee, lovely local cakes, milk & biscuits for the children .... Plus fantastic community engagement via events for kids and adults. Happy to support this locally-owned business that shows how it's done.

I just discovered Kiosk at the Park. It's right next to a great climbing playground. It's jam packed with quality tasty food and drink, with lots from other independent suppliers and variety for kids. It's also full of great ideas - from little milk bottles with biscuits on top, to a small library. I found out about Kiosk in the Park on social media because the team are always joining in with community events. Very friendly with good personal service. Not a surprise it has Bedford Happy certificates!

I regularly use The Kiosk - it's ideal whether you want a quiet drink; are looking for a stop-off with the kids; or just popping in to meet friends and have a chat. Great addition to Russell Park!

I have visited the Kiosk several times with different friends and relatives. It's a delightful spot with delicious cakes (homemade!), friendly staff, blankets and hot water bottles when it's cold, and toilets too. Love this place.

Love this cafe, it's such an addition to the river scene at Bedford. Poised perfectly next to the playground, tennis courts, putting, table tennis, and sports pitches. Top quality drinks and fresh cakes made by local artisan makers are the menu focus. Plus favourites like milk and biccies for a weekly pre school storytime.Stylish tables al fresco decked out with gorgeous local flowers are a feast for the eyes, and a selection of toys, books, magazines, and timetable of community events keep things interactive with lots regular groups in the town. Also really welcoming for dog walkers.

The Kiosk in Russell Park is the perefect place to stop for a coffee and small bites while visiting the embankment or Russell Park. I often go there with my children and they provide a fantastic range of drinks and sweet treats, sandwiches and more. It's the perfect place for a pit stop while visiting that area of Bedford. The coffee is delicious!

Lovely place, nice tea, fresh homemade cakes and food and very family friendly. Perfect if you want a cuppa to go or you fancy a seat to watch the world go by.

We go to the free Storytime sessions on Monday mornings and it's lovely to see such an event put on - my daughter always enjoys it and we've now introduced friends who come too. Plus there's a Free Little Library for everyone to enjoy. The ladies who work and run the kiosk are very friendly and polite.The food and drink is good prices.One thing though - please get a new toaster so there's not such a wait! X

Lovely place, perfect spot in the park for every occasion, whether I'm walking the dogs and we all need some refreshment; the kids are playing in the park and we all need a quiet place to chill out; I'm running and need to rehydrate; or for storytime for the toddlers! Lovely team, lovely food and drinks, couldn't ask for more :)

Nice place to grab a coffee and a cake on my way to work. I know it's not their job but would be nice if the area around it was kept cleaner. Also they do a great job for kids but this can make getting a quick coffee a bit longer than we would like.

There's not much to inspire in Bedford, but this little gem is well worth finding. Delicious homemade goodies, great coffee and tea, kids activities and healthy snacks, and all in the safe environs of the park, with play areas and room for dogs. Go see, they're open 345 days a year!

A lovely kiosk / outdoor cafe - homemade cakes and lovely lattes (made exactly how I asked - because I am a bit fussy!). Very friendly staff and reasonable prices for homemade stuff - £10 for 4 drinks and cakes. Situated very close to the excellent kids park and river (if you fancy a walk) and toilets too. What more could a family ask for? Highly recommend it.

Our families fav Saturday morning spot for a great coffee yummy snacks and outdoor space for the kids to run around! Perfect!

Our Sunday morning dog walk would not be the same without our half way stop at the Kiosk. The coffee and cakes are excellent and even the dogs get a drink and a treat. I love that the blankets and hot water bottles are out so we can enjoy our coffee with a little bit of warmth

What an amazing spot. Delicious coffee and great cakes. Friendly service and all sorts of innovative ideas. Go now!

The kiosk is a fantastic place to stop off for a lovely drink and amazing cakes. The service is always impeccable and added extras go from the Lego table to entertain small ones to hot water bottles and blankets in the winter. Close to the gorgeous Bedford River it is a perfect stop off at any time of the year. If you are close by and have little ones then you should check out what is going on because they have lots of different activities including story time and themed events (my son loved the hedgehog day)

Lovely staff :) great outdoor place to meet, love that when its chilly out come blankets and hot water bottles! Great meeting place, lovely tea and cakes! Down side is the toilets but they are kept as clean as they can be for public park toilets.
