Old School Coffee in Waveney

The best coffee in Beccles bar none, this is the go to destination for any serious local coffee lover and drinker. Always a relaxed ambiance, we heartily recommend!

Best coffee shop around by far. Excellent customer service and reasonable prices. We travel a couple of times a week from Lowestoft to visit for our breakfast and coffee fix. Keep doing what you're doing 😊

Lovely spot with great coffee and great baked goods. Staff are very kind and friendly, and offer top-ups on unlimited filter coffee without even having to ask :))

A very friendly and cozy corner with well made coffee, fresh pastries and more. A peaceful break away from the high street. Best coffee in Beccles!

Love coming here to work for an hour or so here and there. Breaks up working from home. Great coffee and food always. Calm atmosphere and friendly chat.

Great little coffee shop. Friendly service, good selection of cakes. Definitely recommend a visit when you are in Beccles.

Best coffee in Beccles. Love this cafe, lovely friendly people. Cakes and pastries always fresh. Quirky little building. Recommended

Just fab when visiting family - relaxed, delicious food, amazing coffee. Child (play kitchen at the back) and dog friendly ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The coffee is always great, the ambiance is calming and a great spot to read, work or enjoy a cuppa while my little one plays in their kiddie kitchen. I had the brioche french toast this time and it was delicious.

We absolutely love it here! Fabulous atmosphere and wonderful coffees and cakes! A great place to meet and chat. The new decoration is modern and relaxing.

Great service, great food what more can you ask for… I would highly recommend the Pastrami bagel an an iced oat milk latte

Lovely cosy cafe serving first class coffee. Unique little old school building. Can recommend the bottomless filter coffee and avocado on sourdough. Very tasty.

The guys at old school are super friendly and deliver a fantastic product. Always a great spot to visit when you are in beccles

If you’re in Beccles and you are craving top class coffee this is the only place that meets that standard. Plenty of places where you’ll get coffee but this is streets ahead. Worth looking out as it’s in the street above Tesco, not in the main town square.

Excellent service, great coffee and food. Cinnamon buns are a must have. Can't fault it. Have been several times now and will return many more!

Cosy, friendly staff, dog-friendly, fabulous coffee and just amazing food. A hidden gem, will definitely be returning!

Just an all round great place…relaxed, friendly, comfortable, free WiFi and (most importantly) GREAT coffee and pastries/bagels/enormous cheese scones and other delights. I’ve visited many times and it’s always a no-hassle great experience. All age groups seem to love it which is always a good sign…there’s no ‘cliquish’ feel which sometimes happens in great coffee places. Just a joy.

A delicious Toasted cheese with kimchi amongst the plants. Fab sandwich! My partner had pastrami bagel & rates it highly. Both had crispy fresh pickled cucumbers. New owners have added loads of plants & lightened & brightened this already lovely spot. The barista is great - serving house coffee and guest beans. Probably the best decaf I’ve ever had. Perfect to accompany the GF brownie which was top rated by my American friend. Exceeded expectations. We’ll be back.

Welcoming and friendly cafe- comfortable for everyone! Very appreciative of Old school being my local coffee shop, couldn’t have asked for a better one. Massive thanks to Jacob and Archie for running such a great place. All the staff are very friendly and the food and coffee is fantastic. Thank you!

I love The Old School’s relaxed atmosphere, delicious food and chai latte! The service is always friendly and personal. If you haven’t tried the cakes, pastries and bagels, you have missed out!

The best coffee for miles. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Bagels on the level of Brick Lane. And make sure you try the brownies 🤌🏽.

Love love love the vibe 🤗 The staff are super friendly and polite, providing a brilliant service. Vegan bagel to die for! My very favourite place to have coffee.

Lovely atmosphere. Friendly, welcoming and efficient staff. Fantastic coffee and brownies. Nice to see a new business that is thriving. Will definitely return. Well done guys!

Vibe is GREAT in here. Staff are friendly and the coffee is gorgeous. Their array of freshly baked cakes, cookies and scones are to die for. Definitely hit this place up and give it a try. It's my weekly go to coffee shops in beccles 💕

Beautiful coffee, scones and cinnamon buns. Never disappoints! Definitely worth a look next time you’re in Beccles….

The most delicious dirty chai I’ve found in the area, and the banana bread is SO good. This is such a great spot!

Very pretty and friendly staff :) the latte was devine and my partner was extremely happy that the orange juice had bits! Lol!

Very welcoming cafe. Bright and airy. Coffee was superb. I chose the avocado soft boiled egg on gorgeous sourdough toast. Superb. My husband had a scone which was light and fluffy. Spotlessly clean. Staff were lovely. Relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely return.

Best coffee ever! Warm, cosy, chilled out with delicious bagels, soup, chocolate brownie. Best coffee shop in Beccles and local areas 🤩

Very nice hot chocolate croissant and mince pie. Nice modern interior well lit and relaxing atmosphere. Recommended.

Fabulous little coffee shop, lovely ambience and the references to the building once being a school were brilliant - old lockers - a student's chair - and the loo: well it just took us back to our (senior) school days and really made us giggle....

I’ve been in before for great coffee but wasn’t until seeing the pastry chef bringing food out this time, that I realised it’s all baked in house. New favourite Bakery in Town, my friends and I will be returning!😁

What a great little spot. Super coffees and the best pastrami bagel I have had outside the US. The new owners have turned an impossible little place into a cosy little alcove and we love it!

FANTASTIC Coffee, excellent biscuit and/or warm cheese scone. Friendly staff, lovely customers, relaxing environment. The perfect coffee break. I'm SO pleased you are trialling being open on a Monday, as it REALLY made my Monday great.
