The Antelope Cafe in Wiltshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Not sure how this place makes a living as it is hidden away on the top floor of an antiques shop in the centre of Salisbury. Quaint & quirky. Teas, coffees and light meals - salads, sandwiches, toasties, baked potatoes. All nicely served in proper cuos, pots & plates. Sit be the window and you can watch the world go by in the street below. Charming.

We hosted my sisters baby shower at the Antelope cafe, and it was the perfect cosy and bright space for a small group of us to get together to celebrate. Laura was an amazing host and provided an amazing spread of afternoon tea, sandwiches, salads, scones & cake, which were all homemade and delicious! Thanks for making it a really special afternoon & taking such good care of us!!

Having walked around Salisbury we had all but given up on finding the right place for our lunch. We happened on this lovely cafe via checking out the Antiques Centre. It's on the second floor so very light and airy with a mixture of furniture and art works. Very relaxed. The menu was great - we are veggies and I couldn't decide what to have (as opposed to often having to have the only option). I had the beetroot salad full of delicious fresh salads tomatoes etc with a lovely seeded roll, and my boyf had the halloumi and pepper toastie with salad. All extremely yummy and we just had room to share a delicious piece of carrot cake. Pots of tea (not cups) and the offer of hot water for a top up. Perfect. Really friendly service We don't visit Salisbury often and are now trying to find a, reason to cone again soon.

A splendid cafe tucked away above an antiques shop. Has been running for a number of years offering good value light lunches and teas. Very welcoming staff, with a calm, airy feel to the place.

Had to complain about my dried up lunch today. The assistant immediately took a defensive attitude, raised her voice at me, which was totally unacceptable. I ended up walking out. Upon phoning the owner she defended her staff, never apologized and told me I was not welcome there again!! Absolutely disgraceful attitude.

Friendly and thoroughly civilised. Cake portion was huge and moist and the teacake was perfection. Prices very reasonable and copies of "The Lady" to peruse whilst awaiting the arrival of one's food. Ten out of ten.

Quirky, unfussy, relaxed & unspoilt. I love this place for what it isn't. This place has heart. Helpful friendly service, yummy mince pies and delicious coffee.

Situated above an antiques shop, this is a small independent cafe with an eclectic mix of tables and chairs. Met some friends here for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it. Don't be put off by the climb up the stairs as the food and coffee are worth the climb. Quiet when we were there surprisingly. Served by a very helpful and friendly member of staff. Recommended.

My favourite regular haunt. Laura and her staff are always welcoming. Delicious, freshly made lunches and cakes; the carrot cake and recent addition, ginger cake are wonderful. Always great coffee and a wide selection of teas. A refreshing change in a city with more than it's fair share of chain establishments.

On the second floor of the antiques store is this quirky coffee shop serving a range of hot food. The coffee is excellent and the toasted tea cakes are huge.

Great quality food! my favourite are the steak sandwich and the beetroot salad. friendly atmosphere, love this place!

Atmosphere is friendly, relaxed, staff are lovely. Food is great, one of my most favorite places to eat

I needed somewhere quiet to each lunch on a Saturday and thought I'd try The Antelope. A small, quaint little cafe situated on the top floor of a large antiques store. Wonderful fresh food, friendly staff and great value for money. Thank you very much!

We had the Vegan Soup, Tomato and Basil, which was beautifully presented with warm roll and lovely fresh salad. The coffee was brilliant too, I was not only able to have Soya milk, but was asked if I wanted it warm too! 10 out of 10.

I love that they are so concerned about ingredients and how you are feel about the food. I always eat well and love that they care. A real gem of a place and always been my favorite. The staff and owner are so welcoming and friendly, the food is delicious and served with love. I really couldn't ask for more. Thanks.

Such a little gem, tucked out of the way over looking Catherine Street Salisbury, this cafe is a lovely hideaway. With a huge and incredibly comfy sofa (our favourite spot), delicious and filling food, interesting reading material and artwork this definitely has more to offer than your run of the mill chain store coffee shop. Although not pram friendly (as it's a few floors up!) they're very accommodating of my toddler, who I walk there instead of taking a pram. I highly recommend the hot chocolate and home made ice cream which is just out of this world. The cakes and meal options are fab too! Very attentive and nice staff, polite and helpful. I feel you can tell a lot about an establishment by the customers, who are always nice too! A must if you're visiting salisbury, or a local.

Era la primera vez que visitamos este lugar encantador. Está en el segundo piso de la tienda de antigüedades. Un pequeño lugar con un personal amable. Hemos probado la comida y podría decir que estaba muy sabroso, una buena cantidad y buenos precios.

Si no sabía que el café estaba ubicado 2 Antelope pisos sobre una tienda de antigüedades, fácilmente podría perderse. . . Y qué pena que terminan siendo - como es una verdadera joya de encontrar! No es un gran lugar, tiene suficientes asientos para aproximadamente 16 - 20 personas en total, sin embargo, vosotros no solamente tenéis una selección de mesas sillas, pero también más de un par de salones también, así, muy acogedor y cómodo. Precioso, un ambiente acogedor, el personal es atento, y un montón de luz natural entrar en la cafetería. Además, es un perro - establecimiento hospitalario, que siempre es un buen añadido.

Love going to the Antelope cafe, today we went for some of their delicious soup to cheer us up on a miserable day

He subido por las escaleras empinadas varias veces antes y siempre disfrutamos de la comida, especialmente el de naranja polenta tarta pero esta vez nos tomamos el té y una porción de tarta de zanahoria, que era bastante pesado y decepcionante. El té era excelente, las pinturas de Salisbury eran interesantes y la mujer canadiense que dirige el lugar es siempre amable, así que volveré y cumplir la regla que es pastel de naranja pastel de polenta o no!

La decoración y los muebles cambiar todo está a la venta como parte del mercado de antigüedades, normalmente, a veces shabby chic shabby luego inclinada hacia más chic. La comida es generalmente buena, pero como personal parece cambiar bastante a menudo puede variar. Por el momento es buena a excelente.

The staff are rude and just ignore customers as if they are not there. We left and went to a better cafe in the same street. This is the second time I've had a bad experience here. There won't be a third!

Popped in for a cheeky sandwich today. As ever, staff are friendly, food delicious, atmosphere relaxed and comfortable. I took soe take away peanut cookies today, delicious

Una cafetería peculiar, encima de una tienda de antigüedades. La comida es muy buena y te sientes como en casa.

A lovely cosy cafe, with ever changing art gallery.If you can manage the stairs to the top of the building, your efforts will be rewarded.

Love the food here, and the staff are lovely too. It is my favourite place to have lunch. The atmosphere is so relaxed and friendly, I couldn't ask for more. Oh yeh and it is always interesting looking at the different arts displayed.

askedfor sandwich and pot of tea for husband and my self and asked if i could have a coffee instead of tea as i cant drink it and was told "no another £1.90 for coffee so i had to pay for sandwich aqnd pot of tea and a coffee and didn get the tea then she started to clear the table before we had finished i said we hadnt finished but she cleared the table any way not happy

Quick service - great food and drinks, including gluten free - beautiful surroundings - bonus art exhibition by Stephen West - go see for yourself, you won't be disappointed !!!

At the top of the Antique Market and with it's individual design and seating, the Antelope Café is a fun place to visit. A friendly welcome, good service and wide choice of homemade cakes. Recommended!

The right place for a pit stop in Salisbury after looking round the antique market. Interpret “antique” liberally, but no harm in that – there are all sorts of interesting bits and pieces upstairs as well as the silver on the ground floor. In London oddly matched tables and chairs are usually an affectation; here they add charm. The menu has something to suit most people, even the more irksome “free-from…” brigade (the genuinely ill are exempt from criticism; the picky not so much). The smoked salmon salad with a pot of tea is a bargain. The staff are smiley and helpful. Hard to beat.

Quirky coffee shop on top floor of fascinating antique shop in central Salisbury. Laura and her staff make customers feel very welcome. The coffee is not only the best in town but also the best value. The mocha, for example, is not laced with sugar as it is in many places. Find it at the Catherine St entrance to Old George Mall. Recommended.

I am not sure how they make their orange polenta cake so moist. So not like a gluten free cake. Delicious. Went there with a couple of friends who had not been before and both said what a great find. We all agreed it is a great spot to spend lunch with friends (or family).

Its all in everyone else's reviews. Yes, the best coffee I've ever had too; quirky, cosy, great service. Wonderful cheese scones, great crepes, tasty salads. You won't be ripped off either. In a [great] town that doesn't really do vegetarian and vegan, a must visit.

Tend to visit Salisbury once a month so once a month I go to the best cafe in Salisbury, its at the top of two flights of stairs but its worth the effort. Pot of lovely tea and two superb cheese scones £4.00 Seriously good value. Get a lovely smile and a nice welcome, Did I mention the lovely cheese scones?? They are even more delicious now..recipe slightly changed!!!! Very clean and comfortable but sometimes gets a bit packed because its popular with those that know Salisbury. Lunch is value for money and above average. By her own admission she is not a Chef.. Very, very good cook in my opinion :)

I've lived in Salisbury for the last 10 years and was a regular visitor at Costa, since Laura launched the Antelope Cafe in The Salisbury Antiques Market I've swapped allegiance, the coffee is miles better and much cheaper and the ambiance of the cafe is a relaxing break. Thanks Laura and the staff.

I've been having my lunch recently, over the last few months at The Antelope Cafe in The Salisbury Antiques Market on a regular basis, I haven't been to a cafe that listens to your opinion and caters for my taste as much, having recently decided to change to vegetarian. The food is perfect quality and freshly prepared and as a person who hates old bread, I would recommend the sanwhiches as the best in Salisbury. Also as the cost is so reasonable the best value for money too.

Finally a cafe that does almond milk! Delicious soups that are Gluten Free and Vegan. Lots of cake options and lovely friendly staff. Comfortable chairs and sofas to sit on view of the street from high up. and generally a nice atmosphere. Loved that they were very open to my suggestion of toaster bags for a coeliac (to avoid contamination). Looking forward to visiting again.

Popped in lunchtime and had a snack and 10/10A good pot of tea and a delicous wiltshire ham and salad on choice of bread -the salad really was fresh and with a scrumpious dressing .The atmosphere is relaxing and there were interesting magazines to read and fresh flowers adorned the tables The owner is american ?and the service was brilliant -if you want to enjoy a break from exploring salisbury then this is the place to go

On the top floor of the antiques market, we only has tea and cake which was good. The other people in the cafe all seemed to be enjoying their food

The best cheese scones,best cake and best coffee. Laura and crew have got this just right. Quirky, comfy such a nice change from those awful chain cafe/restuarants, which dominate salisbury. Pay a visit you won't be disappointed.

Visit Salisbury once a month and this is where i eat, all food made by chef cheese scones are a particular favourite of mine, I can taste the cheese!! Its on the 3rd floor but its worth the effort. Lovely staff so a really nice atmosphere and comfy chairs. Did I mention food is excellent and a bargain price.

Had a super lemon drizzle cake, and got some great information about travelling in Italy at the same time!

Located on the thirds floor of the antique centre with loads of parking nearby this cosy but intimate room is often filled to capacity. Very popular with locals and visitors to the shopping mall, the service is swift, and the food excellent. A salad of smoked salmon comes with a warmed soft roll. Superb coffee, one of the best i have tasted. Frequented by "ladies that lunch" and business people for catch up meetings a great find in Salisbury.

Situated at the top of a narrow flight of stairs on the 3rd floor of an Antique Market, this quirky little café is something completely different. The cosy ambience is created by the unusual décor but more importantly, the staff are friendly and the food fresh and well presented. Delicious home-baked cakes are available, but we settled for a light lunch. Salad was better & more colourful than most; whole grain bread was deliciously fresh, and the generous pot of tea left us feeling that we would want to return to try other items on their lunch menu. Next time we'll choose a larger table as we found ourselves feeling a little cramped in the corner. Can highly recommend this little gem.

My hubby and I visit regularly since we found this place a few months ago. Laura and her staff are very friendly and will go the extra mile to accommodate quirky requests. I wouldn't go anywhere else in Salisbury.

Love the food and proper english pot of tea, decor, atmosphere and staff. Very warm and comfortable. The staff were friendly and accommodating regarding our food order. Its a cracking place to chill and I even had time to read through a photography book in peace that was available on the table. The cafe sells all items on display ie pictures And possibly the seats you sit on haha. This cafe was open today and for the near future on a Sunday however they have not had to much time to change their additional xmas opening times and picture image onto the trip advisor. But overall if you visit Salisbury visit this place, it is a gem of Salisbury near town and cathedral.

The Antelope Cafe is a quirky, friendly good value cafe. It has either dining chairs & tables or sofas & tables to sit at with magazines available. In my group of 3, 2 of us had the lovely warm cheese scone with soft butter and a cup of tea and at £2.50 for scone & tea, it was a real tasty bargain!! Laura is friendly & helpful, the service is excellent & the food is excellent, Thankyou! :)

Lovely cafe. Cakes, coffee, legendary cheese scones all home made. Friendly staff . An all round great cafe.

Having lived in Salisbury for the last 20 years, it was to my surprise that I stumbled across the Antelope cafe for the first time! Out of curiosity alone, I decided to go their for lunch. The decor was pretty, the atmosphere was very friendly, the food was delicious and prices were more than reasonable. It was a delightful lunch, do so recommend. Thank you.

This small cafe is on the top floor of the Salisbury Antiques Centre, and is under new management. Called in for a coffee and a snack which was a very reasonable price and super tasty. The range of food is small at the moment but there is the promise of more to come, however the prices are very reasonable for Salisbury City Centre. They have a great range of teas, and the cakes are superb, well worth a visit before or after a stroll around the Antiques Centre.
