Taste Community Cafe in Ipswich - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely community cafe with great barista coffee.

Only stopped for a tea and a P, and was most pleased by the service (of the tea). Will happily revisit.

Always friendly and helpful ☺️ Information on helping agencies

Nice place with nice people working there. But the language barrier was there. At least they were friendly

Simple and very good food and drink and very kind and cheerful staff.

Out for a walk, dropped in for a coffee, staff very friendly, good value, will drop in again.

My daughter and her school class recently had a visit to the cafe and loved it. It's so appreciated so I just wanted to thank you. ☺️

Good coffee at a sensible price. Well managed and good covid protocols.

Lovely service, friendly staff. Brilliant coffee and tea.

We just had tea and cake and it was served promptly and pleasantly. Very nice surroundings and friendly volunteer staff but opening hours very odd as they actually shut at lunch time e.g. OPENING TIMES Monday 9am - 12pm Tuesday 9am - 4pm Wednesday 9am - 12pm Thursday 9am - 12pm Friday 9am - 12pm Saturday 10am - 12:30pm Sunday Closed

laidback and friendly service. other customers ready to chat if that's what you want.

Perfect tea and service and prices

Nice coffee shop bit very noisey!

Lovely cafe with lots of choice and lovely staff

Good friendly coffee shop, with great service !

Great place to snack on your own, or there is always some staff member willing to chat. The menu price is cheap, the products good.

Great place for meeting friends etc.

This place is a community café run by some very nice people. If you want a friendly natter with some of the staff (who are volunteers) they will give you a cuppa and a chat with you. You can buy stuff from the cake shop next door and sit in this place and eat it (as long as you buy a drink or something else) which I think is a great idea- the only downside of this café is the food and drink I ordered soup and a bread roll and to my surprise they went to the kitchen cupboard and got out a cuppa-soup which I found to watery but most people just come here for the community and just a chat and a cup of tea!

I live round the corner and work from home part of the week so visit the cafe regularly for a coffee and toasted tea cake. The cafe was set up as a community project by local churches as this area of Ipswich has a higher than average number of older people and loneliness is a big problem in the UK amongst this age group. The cafe sometimes has a craft group that meet there as well. Coffee (freshly made) and toasted teacake is £2.40. The cafe is run by volunteers so it is open different times on different days which can be a bit difficult to remember. It seems to be open all day on Tuesdays and Fridays (closing at 4pm) and mornings only the other days. It is open on Saturday (but not all day) and closed in Sunday.

Nice little tea/coffee shop. Does not really cater for snacks but you can pop next door to the baker's to purchase things to eat in the café.

A friendly environment. A selection of teas and coffee at very reasonable prices. Family friendly. Can order toast and jam.

A non-food cafe with nice drinks and a welcoming atmosphere. No problem to bring food in and eat it, just they can't sell it so the bakery next door is good to match to tea or coffee and a chat.

I cannot rate this Cafe highly enough. As a young mum of a 7 week old and a nearly 2 year old I always worry about going out to public places incase of any tantrum or people staring whilst my toddler doesn't want to stay sat on his chair. However coming here with a friend we were all welcomed happily and my son was able to go and play with the toys provided, he explored the cafe and we weren't stared at or frowned upon when he had the odd scream. The couple were lovely friendly and chatty and spoke about their own children and how they've been through all of the tantrums etc. They made me feel so comfortable and not on edge. I would highly reccomend this Cafe to everyone and especially mum's who do worry about taking their children somewhere incase they are faced with a tantrum scene. I will definitly be coming back. Thankyou again so much from one grateful mummy whose morning you made so much easier.

Enjoyed coffee and cake here with a friend. Really lovely meeting place with a good atmosphere. Would go again
