Good value, very pleased with our lunch. Attentive but not overbearing service plus tasty, well cooked food 😊

What a little gem 💎 of a place, recommended to us by a few locals in the Greyhound Pub (fab pub) so we went for Breakfast this morning, service was great, dog friendly big plus and the quality of the sausages, bacon and eggs was fantastic and at a decent price. We are on Holiday for the week and I'm sure we be back 👍🏻😋😁

Best breakfast place in Swaffham (tried them all now). Friendly service, hot food of good quality.

Excellent Full English Breakfast.

Friendly service and good food. We did arrive late for lunch, so any midday dinners had left, however the place is attractive and clean with a decent range of choice on the menu and specials board.

I have had a special and a Cappuccino here for years! Its easily the best full English breakfast in swaffham!!!

Had the best breakfast, thanks so much, took my littke dog in no probs Poached eggs were just right, bacon was yummy and the bread was amazing gutted they sold out of homemade scones as looked delicious but we were too late to order when we left. Took some desserts instead. Thanks so much 🙏

Lovely food and brilliant service .

What a lovely place. Food and service excellent. We had an all-day breakfast, quality produce sourced locally and cooked when ordered so fresh, moist tasty food. See you all very soon. X

Excellent takeaway food, and great customer service as the young lady who served us even came out to the car to provide additional items without charge. Very pleased

Had lunch here. Very welcoming. My dog was even given a blanket to lie on. I had a burger and chips. Food was good and the surroundings were pleasant. No other customers which was a shame.

We were treated to an afternoon tea. Delicious food and cakes, lovely relaxing atmosphere.

Lovely cafe with several vegan options on their menu and specials board. Dog friendly (including a doggie menu), adorable, and affordable

Lovely bijou bistro. Good menu at great prices. Will visit again soon. Home made scones to die for.

The Shelly's breakfast is well worth the money and the was great 🙂👍

Shelly’s Bistro is a great place for anything from a snack to major meal. Staff are very helpful and service is great. A wide selection of delicious foods and cakes. Nice prices and super dog friendly!

Nice food , service was abit slow.

Stumbled across this bistro when out with the dogs. Not been to Swaffham before - was a quick pit stop on our way home. Dog friendly, great decor, cute outdoor terrace in the shade. Lovely menu and great selection of drinks. Really warm welcome and really friendly. Would definitely go again if in Swaffham.

Lovely meal, and tasty cake, great service,

Visited Swaffham for the first time and visited Shelly's. Food was really quick and was delicious, very friendly staff and the decor is very niche. Really unique. Highly recommended.

Nice clean place food ingredients has definitely improved love the sausages and fresh bread. Highly recommended 👌

Lovely little place for a stop off

Superb little place, very good prices, lovely and helpful Staff. They had had a rush, and run out of a few things but went out and bought what was needed. I shall visit again.

Fantastic breakfast the sausages were huge. Very friendly and really nice interior. Would highly recommend.

Lovely little place for brunch.

Really lovely little bistro. Very impressed with the hot drinks and yummy food. Love the decor too! Girly and flowery - chic! Friendly staff. Shirt wait times for food and food value for money. Will be back soon.

Had a moussaka lunch and a cuppa. Both were brilliant! Will return regularly!

Amazing place for afternoon teas and home cooked meals! Panini’s are delicious 😍 definitely a place to try!

Really cosy, friendly place. Comfy atmosphere with a touch of grly bling, without being over the top. We had cooked breakfast....well cooked and presented nicely...those sausages!! Massive! Make sure you're hungry.

Great place! Wide and varied menu Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff Great value for money breakfast

We had late lunch at this lovely bistro today, the food was lovely, the waitress was welcoming, friendly and helpful. It's such a different quirky little place, can't recommend it highly enough.

Value for money. Great breakfast and dog friendly. Lovely staff and owner

Lovely lovely place to eat or just have a coffee, inside or in the garden. Shabby chic decor is super. Lovely staff albeit we only met one. I believe Shelley was in the kitchen cooking our lovely full English breakfast. Massive sausage!!

Good quality food, reasonable prices and friendly staff.

Lovely girl serving. Very pleasant. Lovely hot fresh food .

Enjoyed lunch of sandwiches & lager sat outside in lovely rear garden. Highly recommended, we'll be back soon!

A very nice place for an evening meal with the family, dogs are welcomed inside. The food was delicious and didn't take too long to arrive. Staff were extremely nice and you felt very welcome.the decor was very sparkly and very picturesque. The rooms were small and homely and all the serving sizes were accurate. Would really recommend to visit!

Fantastic place. Unusually big and well-crafted wide menu (won 6+ awards and keep on counting). Bistro prices with restaurant-grade food. They do: - eat in/takeaway/delivery - Live music events (generally Friday, Saturday, Sundays) e.g. Blues, Retro, Peaky Blinders etc - Theme nights: e.g. Curry night, Thai night, Mexican night, Steak night etc - Eating areas: inside (casual), upstairs (quieter & posher) and outdoors/courtyard (for the ultimate summer experience). You can also sit around the front of the building for those enjoying the general hustle and bustle of Swaffham 😉 - Take reservations for various events e.g. birthdays, weddings, anniversaries etc

Lovely people, food excellent, garden courtyard very relaxing.

Stopped for coffee in their great little courtyard. 👍

Nice to be back indoors at Shelley's this morning , the thing I missed most during lockdown apart from seeing grandchildren was a bloody good breakfast. Always good food ,

Went for a walk around Swaffham and came across Shelly's Bistro, dog friendly and lovely decor, well priced and awesome cakes, we had chilli and rice, and tuna red onion well presented and nice to see proper tea leafs used. With a visit.

Amazing food staff there's a beautiful outside garden to escape the town and relax in peaceful amazing garden

Lovely food, very friendly staff in a beautiful setting. I was given a lovely soft, fluffy blanket to use in case I got cold. Excellent service & good prices. Highly recommend. Loved the dog too.

Knock out... lovely 8oz Steak burger with chips and to die for sticky toffee pudding cheesecake omg. Beautiful 😍.

Just a cup of coffee. Very good. Nice place

Cosy coffee shop & restaurant. Good food and drinks at reasonable prices.

Very nice place to go for a coffee or tea and good food thank you

Cosy, very friendly and good food fair price

Stumbled on this place when looking for lunch on a long car journey. Plenty of choice. Friendly and efficient staff. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. The restaurant was clean and Covid measures carefully observed without being obtrusive. It’s a shame it’s 2 and...

Had afternoon tea with bubbly, Food was fab with good service. Social distancing in force. Lovely outside area. Very clean. Will definatly go back.

Just has a fantastic breakfast, lovely and fresh and best of all it was Hot . Service was great and we was well looked after with all social distancing etc in place . We will be back

During these covid times, Shelly stepped up And adapted to the need of the town and did a fantastic fish selection box for us and it was awesome!! Even before the lockdown the breakfast and food is 10/10 Highly recommend

Shelly’s is amazing for food and service. Nothing is ever too much trouble. They even offer a delivery service which is great. I can highly recommend the afternoon teas and burgers.

We came here for late afternoon snack. Very friendly hostess and good light bites, cakes and tea/coffee.

Good atmosphere, good food, good service! Bonus DOG FRIENDLY too gets thumbs up from me :) tasty coffee would recommend

Great location and staff, very comfy

I always liked this place when I lived in Swaffham. Lovely coffee and a friendly atmosphere. Nice cakes too, even if they are bought in. They do Bistro nights and all sorts.

Really nice place to have a coffee with friends. Friendly staff.

Shellys afternoon tea is the absolute best! The chicken and avocado sandwiches are so tasty, great selection of sandwiches sausage roll, quiche and the cakes! There was so many and so lovely, highly recommend, great friendly service

A lovely little place, with quite a wide menu for somewhere so small! The staff here we absolutely wonderful and accommodating, will definitely make a return visit

Really nice quick stop for lunch. Lovely decor, good service. Nice food. We will definitely go back.

Surprisingly excellent. Great menu tasty food and friendly service :)

Wow! What a lovely place! After being let done by another restaurant in the town we had a fabulous evening here. Warm welcome, great service and fabulous food by a restaurant that really seems to care. The curry was fantastic. Awesome, many thanks, would recommend and will return

Awful afternoon tea. Bad service. Never go again.

Called in for lunch with a friend, first time visit. Greeting by staff member was an effort. Told upstairs only as large table booked downstairs. Small round tables, tub chairs and high back chairs made it feel cramped. Staff had to remove large candelabra (?) from table to make room. Had to sit sideways at table so moved. Then moved large glass jar (?) from table and large cushions from chairs to sit comfortably. No gluten free options at all so stuck with usual jacket potato. Food OK. Solo man at table for 4 offered to move but he was eating so we declined. Could only have sat 3 there as space taken by large floor lamp. Upstairs OK for 1 or 2 for drink, not food. Tacky surroundings. Sorry, won't be back.

Quaint and comfortable with a pleasant atmosphere. quick service and tasty well presented food. Never been before but will go again.

Wow, what a plateful. We opted for the Shelly’s Special breakfast this morning. The sausages - enormous! Everything was very well cooked and hot. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you

Extremely good value and lovely meal. Good welcome from Levi , as usual. Definitely will be making this place a regular for a cuppa, snack or meal. Thank you.
