The best tea/coffee place around, very quaint old style tea room with such a wide choice of tea, coffee and home cooked food and cakes.

Always love a good cream tea at this place, with a wide collection of tea to choose from to go well with your style of cream tea. They go the extra mile and warm your fruit/cheese scone for you. Well recommended for a light lunch or a sweet treat cream tea. There's seating near the church for an extra unique atmosphere that is out of this world, escape the normal Ipswich scene.

Unfortunately the standards of cleanliness are plunging. Plates are left on tables, unnoticed by the very young waiting staff. Food debris on the tables, crumbs on the floor and the toilet with a dirty floor. Wash hand basin neglected. Standards of service have certainly fell through the floor and also hygiene standards.

Pickwicks is a lovely, independent traditional tea shop in the town centre. Food is freshly prepared to order, and the tea is very good, served in a pot with a strainer – how it should be. There is a good choice of reasonably priced food and drinks on the menu served by nice friendly staff.

A long time customer of the one the most prettiest little tea houses England has to offer. Would highly recommend the Ethiopian or Peruvian strong roasts. So glad to see Pickwick's surviving such a difficult time, commercially speaking, for the centre of Ipswich.

A cosy cafe with welcoming staff and great food. An array of teas, coffees and hot chocolate to choose from and the option if oat or soya milk as an alternative to dairy. Would very much recommend!

The food was as you would expect from a small place like this. There is only 1 toilet up a flite of steep stairs. Not ideal for knee problems. It looked a bit tired and lots of flies flying around. It was a very hot day and the door was open. I wouldn't go back.

I enjoyed afternoon tea outside in gorgeous weather with a friend of mine who I hadn't seen for several years. Pickwicks offer a huge selection of teas and coffees as well as a decent range of food. A pot of tea only cost £4.50 at the time of buying and served more than a couple of servings each. I will be back at Pickwicks for further brews.

Located in an interesting historic building. We enjoyed good tea and coffee but didn't buy any food. They only allowed dogs downstairs but as the upper floor was closed off I guessed they allow humans downstairs too. No one complained so it seems it was OK. We purchased some packaged tea to take home and for gifts. We'd definitely visit again.

Morning stop of point. I had a lovely scone with cream and jam! It was lush! We also had a chat with a lovely girl that works there who went through some of the teas and coffees they have at the store and also recommended some nice things to try. We bought tea samples and little tea strainer! She was also lovely enough and said I can order with her next time over the phone and she would post some samples to me as I don’t live in the area. Thank you ladies x

Nice staff, though short staffed so a bit slow, scones were ok and the tea is good. But it was sooo cold in there today we won't be going back. Which is exactly what the lady next to us said and the couple opposite too. How is keeping the heating off to save a couple of quid worth losing 5 customers business? And I'm sure lots more people will feel the same. Everyone wore their coats, and some kept their hats on. When we got back to our bicycle in the buttermarket car park our Speedo showed it was 14.5C and it felt much warmer there than the café.

Been a couple of times to pickwicks for a treat. The teas and coffees are great, many flavours and types to suit all tastes. We went for lunch last weekend and the food was absolutely delicious. The mushroom stroganoff was so flavorful! 🥰 My only criticism is that there was a 50p charge for alternative milk which I think is a bit excessive and unnecessary.

If you want to try a proper coffee shop then Pickwick's it is, you can choose from a huge range of coffee beans and also take some home if you love it. The same can be said for tea too, usually I'm an English breakfast man but there are so many variations on this type of black tea I try a different one each time I'm there. The service is lovely and very personal.
