A tasty breakfast, nicely cooked egg, and good coffee. My daughter appreciated the hot chocolate and pastry. Small, independent, friendly - nice to have this place nearby.

A lovely pit stop on the way back from Addenbrooke's appointments for the last couple of weeks for us. Perfect coffee (and I am fussy!), breakfasts and sandwiches with a cosy, relaxed atmosphere and good old fashioned friendly service. Thank you so much, it was just the chill out we needed after each treatment and the cooked breakfasts went down a treat because he couldn't eat until after each appointment. I particularly recommend the chicken tikka toasted wrap with mint mayo! The Coffee House is the perfect example of why an independent deserves to thrive in the face of identikit national coffee chains/drive throughs everywhere. Lovely to see how much a part of the local community this place is too. We shall be back!

Nothing sets you up for the day than a good breakfast. This was a perfect breakfast with just the right amount of quality ingredients, cooked to perfection and hot! Proper condiments and decent coffee guaranteed to put a smile on your face, equipping you to face the rest of the day. A local gem.

I can't review the food as I have never tried it but the coffee is really good and reliable. Small amount of seating but good for a takeaway. The owner's real nice too

I went for the first time this week, having just had an operation. I don't drink sugar drinks and wasn't allowed to drink hot drinks due to the op. They had run out of diet cokes etc. and there were no other diet options. We asked if it would be OK to just get a drink from a nearby shop and they replied no. I really needed a drink as I'd had to fast for a day and was pretty dehydrated, so we decided to try somewhere else. On my way out I decided to say: "Just a polite thought for you - for the sake of not letting me get a can from elsewhere, you're missing out on the £15+ we were going to spend on other things here". I was met with a blank stare and shrugged shoulders to which I further added "I'm not sure I understand the logic". At no time was I rude, in fact I made a specific effort to be polite, even making sure to say it. As I left the door, one of the servers muttered something about me having been rude to her, which I point blank was not. I went back in and expressed that I didn't appreciate her tone and that I had done nothing of the sort, that in fact I was simply trying to find a way to spend money with them. The owner/manager (I presume) came out and started explaining that "If we let one person do it, everyone would want to and where would it end?" The person I was with explained again that we were just trying to find a way to spend money there when they were out of stock on all non-sugar and non-hot drink options and reiterating that neither of us had been rude. He then asked the server to apologise and she shook her head no. He insisted again and she apologized only through gritted teeth. That was the first and last time I'll bother going there and based on the appalling nonsense from the staff, I simply cannot recommend this place to anyone.

This busy little coffee shop is a gem, tucked away just a few mins from Addenbrooks it has great coffee but also a tasty but reasonably priced fry up. You see all types of customers not just locals but visitors to Addenbrooks, builders, parents dropping kids off at the school nearby. It feels like an important part of the community.

Fantastic experience while we were in The Coffee House. It was cozy and the place is intragammable worthy. I would recommend the all day breakfast to anyone who wish to visit the coffee house coz their bacon is really tasty. Will definitely be back. Value for money and the staff were really nice to us so I would recommend this to all coffee goers out there😊

This is a fantastic coffee shop that also serves an amazing value, delicious English breakfast which actually seems pretty difficult to find in Cambridge these days. The staff were really friendly and accommodating with any requests we had for alternatives on breakfast (even when we made a mistake ordering! Sorry guys..) and the coffee is great too! Highly recommended and worth making a trip! :) Alex

I was surprised to find the Coffee House, but I’m glad I did. The sandwiches are excellent and I frequently visit for lunch. I’d like to see a few more breakfast options e.g. granola, fruit, yoghurt etc, but this is quickly becoming a great coffee shop.

This is a small local coffee house and I sometimes go there for breakfast. There a few tables inside and some outside. Always a warm welcome, and the food is delicious. I recommend the sourdough toast with crushed avocados and poached eggs! Chilli and lime can be added, also smoked salmon. The only downside is that it closes in the early afternoon. We desperately need places like THIS in the evening, in a town where most independent cafes shut by 5pm!

I was driving through Cherry Hinton and passed a dig to The Coffee House and was intrigued so turned around and I’m glad that I did. Lovely little cafe most understated with brilliant coffee and tasty, fresh food at a very low price - they really should charge more, after all it’s Cambridge. Just delightful.

It's almost impossible to park at Addenbrookes but the Coffee House is less than a mile away. So it's ideal if you are waiting for a patient or fancy something before an appointment. Lovely coffee and a wide range of sandwiches and cakes as well as all day breakfast and heated lunch items. Nice spacious premises, seats outside, easy parking and lovely staff.

The cafe is good, the food and service are excellent although the coffee isn't particularly strong tasting (get an extra shot). The only problem I have with this is that it is closed frequently. Maddeningly, it closes during the Folk Festival when it could be making a killing. It was also shut the first week of January when everyone was back and work and wanting sandwiches. The board is always out on the main road even when the place is shut.

This Cafe is local for me, It is located on the small parade of shops on Wulfstan way near the Health centre. There is mixed seating, chairs or stalls, tables inside and out. The Cafe is clean, has free daily papers to read, good friendly, quick service all for a nice budget price. I have dropped in half a dozen times in the last 3 months for Tea & Hot rolls. The food is cooked to order, I had a choice of rolls, fillings (I had Sausage and Egg) and a mug of tea. The food was cooked exactly to order, Eggs flipped, Sausages split with brown sauce. Also got some free crisps/Doritos on the side. The Tea was fresh and tasty.

I stopped in recently and found The Coffee House a clean welcoming place for a coffee, hot chocolate, or light meal. The interior gives a feeling of space, and while the furnishings are fairly standard, the place is simply and welcoming decorated. The menu offerings include all day breakfast, sandwiches and cakes. The the tea and hot chocolate were well made, and the man working the counter (Ian?) was very courteous and had a good rapport with the regulars. Well worth a stop, especially if in the Addenbrooke's area.

On first impression it was great. We loved the atmosphere and artwork inside. The staff were very friendly and helpful initially when I asked about the menu. However when we received our order there had been a miss communication regarding one of the plates of food. From them taking the order and the kitchen preparing it, to it then being served. Honestly as someone who has worked in the hospitality industry for years from floor staff to management - I was shocked at how we were spoken to when we asked for it to be amended. The person who came to us and asked what we ordered denied that we had order it a certain way in the first place. Upon us saying that we had certainly ordered it GF they pulled a face. - This whole interaction felt very confrontational. Next we could see that member of staff behind the counter talking to the other members of staff and pointing at our table. Of course I understand that you are communicating to the team but it honestly felt unnecessary to repeatedly point and frankly it's rude. Needless to say a different member of staff then approach us to say it was being made which we thanked them for. I can quite easily say that I do not often feel the need to leave reviews and normally if I do it's because it's been a great experience. And this was until we were made to feel that we were being unreasonable. This was our first time in The Locker Cafe - seriously not a great impression.

Terrible service. Staff were unfriendly, did not ask at any point if we wanted anymore drinks or dessert. Had to wait 30+ minutes for a takeaway box and our bill despite asking twice. Non-optional 12.5% service charge was added to our final bill without any receipt given to see the breakdown of cost which was definitely not deserved. The food however was lovely but will not be going back due to poor service.
