The Coffee House in St Edmundsbury

Had the jacket potato with cheese could of done with butter was a bit dry, Your teapots need bleaching! They have not been done for a long time!

This place is brilliant. The coffee is great, the staff are always friendly and welcoming. They have a wide selection of home made sweet and savory snacks and a decent breakfast and lunch menu, which seems reasonably priced. I like to get there early and grab a scotch egg or sausage roll still warm from the oven. I don't think this place could be better.

Really nice little location and the coffee house is a lovely little cafe with purchasable artwork on the walls. Home made sausage rolls and scotch eggs and cakes which look absolutely appealing! Other hot dishes available such as bacon sandwiches and breakfasts etc. Today, I purchased the bacon butty, tea, scotch egg, americano coffee and eggs and bacon. £16 My girlfriend called the black americano as average but the eggs were nice. I had the bacon sandwich and the scotch egg. The scotch egg was lovely and warm. The bacon sandwich and the bacon on my girlfriends plate was terrible. Barely under the grill which is just a preference of choice but we could not eat it at all. Very fatty too. Whilst this is just an observation and a personal choice as well as the fact I’m in service myself, when handing back the plates, the waitress asked if everything was ok. She didn’t take note of the bacon sandwich being given back pretty much untouched or offered an alternative or even re-done! Again, just my own personal observation and how I’d do things differently but certain makes you think did I get value for money. The obvious answer is no. Whilst the staff seem nice, the food could be better. All I’d say to the staff who work here is maybe take a little time to listen to feedback and see if the customer is happy. Either a refund on an item or an alternative dish. Anyway, it’s £16; I get it’s not a lot but I’ve left the cafe still hungry. Thank you The Coffee House for your time.

The café was busy but we found a table. Coffee and cake was good. A bit noisy. They also have a branch at Fornham All Saints which has better ambiance and is where we usually go.

Good Coffee and cake and would be perfect if they did not let in dogs and owners that could use the tables outside. Sat at the sofa in the middle and almost covered in dog saliva. See picture. It’s a shame as we would have made this a regular haunt.

As a birthday treat we decided to stay local. I felt the service was all very rushed, we hadn’t even a chance to look at the menu before asked for what we would like, my husbands croissant had arrived at the table before we’d sat down, which instead of being fresh and crisp was stodgy and had a funny metallic taste, I went for the bacon butty, which certainly wasn’t freshly cooked bacon, you couldn’t smell bacon being cooked and within a couple of minutes that to was on the table. The bacon was grey! And most unappealing. I couldn’t eat it. Even my husband didn’t want to finish it off! All in all very disappointing. Which is such a shame. We’d like to support local businesses especially after the year we’ve all been through.

We were so pleased to come across this little coffee shop. The staff were very welcoming and the service excellent. We can definitely recommended the sausage rolls...they are huge and delicious. Coffee was excellent too! We shall de be returning.

Have been here several times now. Really good coffee and choice of home cooked snacks and cakes. Great atmosphere, lovely helpful staff and excellent menu. Definitely recommend.

Shocking breakfast . Just been to the coffee house for what I would describe as the worse breakfast ever . From the minute we ordered and they said there is no sausages ( wall over to Tesco express you lazy sods and buy some ) replaces by cold sausage roll accompanied by microwaved mushrooms under cooked tomatoes cheap beans and bacon you could see through for £7.95 you should be ashamed . Yes I am a chef and that’s just not acceptable giving good chefs / cooks a bad name . DO NOT EAT HERE . They do not deserve your money

Went to come in here yesterday around 11 with my young children and the place resembled more of a dog pound than a place to go and eat in a hygienic environment. My kids wouldn’t go in, and as I’m allergic nor could I! Bills itself as ‘dog friendly’ but from talking to people around the area they have stopped going for that reason. Assumption by dog lovers is that everyone is a dog lover....more are not so business model is floored. Thus unless you like having a hairy animal around you whilst you eat and drink then give it a swerve. Such a shame, used to love it here.

I frequented the library coffee house every couple weeks with my family. The first time we went we ordered food and it was a complete rip off. Never again. We just stuck with coffee after that. Over £3 for bacon sandwiches with only 2 pieces of bacon and some average bread, too much butter too. Avocado smash which we were told had chilli and lemon in it only had lemon, and the smallest bit of sourdough. The cakes were fantastic, so delicious (I think they said they employ a baker who makes them in house?) but not worth the £2.95 we paid for them. Nice for an occasional treat though. Tea was £2.50 for a small pot! We were told it was premium tea but even that is too much. We learned our lesson and only popped in for a coffee from then on. It was a lovely location and I always thought the staff there were just fantastic. The young lady with the accent, Canadian I think, was always so upbeat and friendly. She always made the experience memorable. And possibly one of the only things that kept us going so often. The only one I didn't care for was the short blonde lady, we always felt from her that we were an inconvenience and we never felt welcome with her. Luckily we were not served by her often. The coffee, as I've said, was always really nice and another thing we loved about the place. All that to say, we went to have a coffee at the library yesterday and they were shut!! Just a small notice on the doors saying the "pop up" has closed. I never knew it was a pop up! I've spoken to a few people who agreed they'd thought it was a permanent fixture. We last went in the first week of September and there was no mention of closing or anything. Very very disappointing!! It would have been nice to know it was shut as we went out of our way to get there this time and it was a complete waste of time. We will not be bothering to go to any of the other houses because quite honestly they weren't worth the bother overall. Very very disappointing.

My partner and I visited on Saturday morning for breakfast. As we approached I noticed the tubs of dead flowers outside, I perhaps should have taken that as a warning and gone elsewhere. I asked for my coffe hot, it was lukewarm. 'Posh' beans on toast had no taste to them at all. My avocado was not smashed it was cut in large chunks and not seasoned. My poached egg was snotty. No marmalade and I therefore ate the most expensive slice of ordinary sliced bread toast and jam I have ever eaten. Add to this one badly behaved dog one badly behaved child, I write this with such disappointment. I did not complain because there would have been so much to say, we just ate up put up and left. I have worked in the hospitality industry, simple things could make The Coffee House great, it would take 10 mins to improve the exterior and ask staff to listen to and respond to simple requests. Very expensive too.

Had breakfast here a couple of weeks ago. Both the service and the food was spot on. I went for the Avacado toast and a coffee. It was very good. So much so, that we even stayed for a smoothie afterwards! Located just outside of Bury St. Edmund's, not really walking distance. We will be back!

My husband and I love the place but sadly when we have come in not only has the bill been very expensive but the food just isn’t very fresh. Cakes can be very dry to the point where we chucked them away.. I stopped ordering porridge because it was awful and the staff attitude can be very unpredictable. Really sad to leave this feedback

I visit the cafe every week with my dogs as this cafe is dog friendly and they can come inside and sit with me, which means I can use the cafe all year round rather than only when the weather allows me to sit outside. The choice of food and drinks is very good and staff are very friendly and welcoming, even when I turn up with three large dogs. There is always water available by the door for the dogs and then they like to share a warmed up sausage roll with to refuel for the second leg of our morning walk. Both they and I look forward to visiting every week.

The place was busy and had a good buzz flat white pretty good but served in a glass I will ask for a cup next time. The sausage roll was one of the best I have had. We will be calling in again when back that way.

Popped in here after our walk on a Saturday afternoon. The food we had was very dry and flavourless. The staff were cold and unwelcoming. However the sausage roll was delicious.

I have visited this place for several years and always found it to be a tucked-away haven of tranquility and wholesomeness.

What a shame! This was a truly loved little meeting house but it has really changed, looks very unloved.

What a shame. I have been here lots of times, but not for about 5 months. The food was fine.( although expensive) The problem is the cleanliness. Really gone downhill. It's dirty. The floor looked like it needed a deep clean. The toilet was rank. Cups and spoons stained. Paint peeling, tables chipped cushions tired. It's such a shame, it was a lovely little coffee shop. It really does need some tlc, make it welcoming again!

Over priced sub standard coffee charged at a premium and don’t get me started on the food that gave me the trotts

I think the place could do with a good dust and a wipe over ... the chairs and cushions are saggy , lifeless and always full of

Very slow service ordered and then waited half an hour for the coffee. The staff are wondering about trying to work out who ordered what.. the number of times I could have had a sausage roll was unbelievable.Suggest that you use a numbering service. Want be back.

5 Star Coffee House that also does top quality sausage rolls, scones and cakes. Nice and chilled out but can get busy. The staff are very good and friendly. Well worth repeat visits.

The Coffee House is simply fantastic. The staff are friendly, the food is delicious and the decor and general atmosphere is delightful.

Popped here for tea and cake with my mum, such a lovely little find. We loved the unique decorations and the milkshakes were wonderful! We love to support our local cafes so we'll be back

Sat here with a bottle of water and a banana while my car was being serviced, 4 hour wait. They weren’t bothered that i had only spent £2.75 and sat for 4 hours and used the toilet twice, didn’t rush me, just left me to it. Very friendly, very helpful, very busy place and lots of regulars. I live local so il be back.

Impressed by the selection of plant based milks for the vegan or dairy intolerant. A bit disappointed that no one seemed very sure about which food products had dairy in though. It would be really helpful to have things labelled and nice to have a vegan food option on the menu.

We live locally to the Coffee House and quite often use this as our go to for a quick coffee to pass some time or after junior park run on a Sunday either to stay in or get takeaway!

Went on an ancestry hunt with good, longstanding friends and needed a cuppa!

Touring the local villages needed a tea and cake moment. We got one!

First visit, helpful staff, fly behind the (ill fitting) curtained chiller cabinet on the cakes which was off putting and didn't order food as intended. Really noisy despite not being full. Good selection of teas .

Nice selection of teas, coffees, cakes and snacks and quite reasonably priced. Service good too. Recommend.

Good portion size, lots of good choice and fab atmosphere. They also serve great coffee. The team are friendly and service is speedy.

6 de nosotros fuimos allí para el almuerzo. Todos nos dieron una comida en diferentes ocasiones, uno de los miembros del grupo sólo recibió su comida, una chaqueta y superficial de patata, diez minutos después de que el resto de nosotros había acabado de comer. Dos de nosotros tuvimos un disquete con tocino BLT y grasos cruda, más mantequilla que pan y sólo una porción de la panceta cruda para toda sandwich, espero que no me enfermo de esta. La degustación de café con hielo era barato, el personal no se disculpó como al servicio y seguro que diga que no volveremos muy pronto.

Paramos en la Cafetería después de visitar la iglesia local. Este café está en la ruta de regreso a casa de tne mi nieta y le encanta visitar aquí (solo 3 años! ). Este es un gran lugar para los niños, y el personal es muy servicial. Nuestro favorito es la leche con una nieta de lado y nadie los murciélagos tostar un ojo cuando ella lo solicite. También pedimos rollo de salchichas, bollo de queso y un par de cafés que eran todos maravillosa. Este es un gran café en un fantástico entorno que nos encanta ir cuando estamos de visita en Bury street Edmunds.

No viven lejos de la casa de café y la zona de Moreton hall había sido muriendo por un lugar decente para socializar, que no era un pub. Este lugar lo tiene todo derecho. Unas bebidas. Batidos son increíbles y los rollos de salchichas son enormes. Se pone muy concurrido a veces, pero eso no es realmente un problema. Lugar perfecto para encontrarse con amigos.

Mi madre y yo visitamos esta vez el almuerzo! ! La primera vez que había estado en y para decir la verdad que no volveremos! ! A la llegada, todas las mesas estaban vacías y sucias, etc. placas fuera de vacío, nos sentamos en una mesa y pide la chica si podíamos tener un paño para limpiar la mesa tomó casi 20 minutos para conseguir una y entonces ella quejado porque había para limpiar la mesa! ! En segundo lugar por 10 libras. 70 para una patata chaqueta y un café y té. ! Hablar de caro! ! También nada parecen tener precios en i. e. Las tartas, así que no lo mucho que eran. Para completarla, había un chip en mi taza que sirvieron para mí! ! Así que lo que con mesas sucias, vasos rotos y la falta de atención al cliente nunca será volver

Stopped for a quick coffee after a lovely walk at Nowton Park, lovely sausage roll, HUGE!! Nice friendly staff and atmosphere, would definitely recommend

Really nice atmosphere, friendly staff and interesting and delicious food. The sausage rolls are worth the trip alone.

Coffee was very good also the cake was delish, milkshakes were scored a 10 out 10. Difficult to get in and out with pushchair but nice ambience and polite staff.

Woke up early on my day off from work so thought I'd treat myself to some breakfast. As a vegetarian I often find it hard to find a tasty dish but I never struggle here! Perfectly cooked poached eggs with spinach was a lovely way to start off my morning. Friendly staff who are very welcoming and the atmosphere is always buzzing yet comfortable.

I love having The Coffee House so close. The staff is amazing and my coffee was awesome. The coffee was just what I needed to get through my paperwork. I always feel welcome, whether it's after a workout and I need to refuel or I'm meeting friends for catchup. I also love that I can support a local business.

I visited the Coffee house, and was welcomed very warmly buy all the staff that work there, they are all very friendly, smiley and cannot do enough to make your visit pleasant. All there food is freshly made on site using all local ingredients, nothing is out of a packet. I highly recommend a visit the the coffee house, they are fantastic!!!

Ordered 2 hot chocolates to takeaway, £6.40!!?? Will not be returning, shame as I've just moved here and it's on my doorstep.

Lunch hours are precious enough, but when you wait 35 mins for a toasty you are hardly going to have time to send back because it has a distinct taste of fish! Couldn't see this combination on the menu so can only presume that the same board/knife was used.There seems to be a distinct lack of manager or supervisor and too many youngster who clearly have no recognition of what constitutes a reasonable time for a customer to be served with their food. Perhaps it would be good practice if they are unable to serve food within a reasonable length of time to inform the customer thereby giving the customer a chance to choose something else or go without.

I often pop in here for a coffee or a light lunch when I'm in the area. The staff are very nice and the food and drink are good value.

Always a smiley face to greet you in the Coffee House best Sausage rolls in East Anglia not for the faint hearted though ! Massive ! But you can have half , lovely atmosphere great coffee , well done ladies on and 1p from every coffee gets donated to St Nicholas Hospice

I popped in here whilst my better half was on business nearby, l was warmly welcomed, there was quite a buzz about the place. I had a coffee and a home made cheese scone, very good.I was able to use my iPad as well which was a bonus.Good car parking nearby.

Good place to chat to friends and family . Great Smoothies!! Lovely cakes and food. Dog and children friendly ! Good value for money Staff very friendly!

Everything on offer at the Coffee House form the coffee to the salads is of the highest quality and at very fair prices. Staff are very friendly and go out of their way to provide great service.

I absolutely love the Frank and Earnest coffee here and think that it's the best in town. They make it perfectly. I also can't get enough of the sausage rolls, especially when they're hot. This has now become a regular weekend treat.

I have been here often lately as I tend to stop by after dropping my son off at nursery. The place is always buzzing the food looks and tastes amazing abd the staff are aways happy and friendly. The coffee is the best in Bury x

Friendly bustling atmosphere. Good coffee and home made food. The sausage meat in sausage rolls or Scotch eggs is local and excellent.

We are giving this place its first poor review. Sorry about that . This was our first visit here and will be our last. Been wanting to pop in for quite a while so had the chance today and was very disappointed. First impressions when we walked in was dirty and grubby including some of the staffs uniform. The decor was poor with the menu written on the wall and table and chairs were not really that clean. We went to order food but the food that was on show was appalling and should of been binned. It was burnt. We saw a lady trying to eat a scotch egg but it was so burnt that she struggled to cut it then she was taking pictures of it as well so you might probably be getting another poor report. This could be a great place if given a little more thought to it by tidying the place up and making it a more comfortable place to sit and chat

love coming here for coffee and cake, nothing is ever too much trouble its like a second home to us. I had my 50th birthday lunch here and the ladies made me a special cake and catered for my birthday.

I have visited the coffee house on a number of occasions and my 2 recent visits have been disappointing. Tables not cleaned, food on the floor, over cooked bacon, dirty crockery and restroom. Also on our recent visit, 2 out of the 3 sandwiches ordered were brought out incorrect. The atmosphere, however, is lovely and the staff are fruendly and welcoming.

A lovely place to come and sit down in and order food and drink in a nice relaxing atmosphere. The service is friendly and very efficient. The range of drinks they serve throughout the year is great. The food from sandwiches, bacon and eggs to the homemade cakes are delicious. A hidden gem is the amazing sausage rolls that they have. A must try for anyone. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for some food and drink served in a warm and friendly environment. Especially the sausage rolls and homemade cakes.

Went on a Saturday lunch time. Excellent service, had a lovely sausage roll and cake. Good value for money, Highly recommended.

Good menu for breakfast or a light lunch. Homemade savouries & cakes always on offer. Friendly staff.The apprach seems to be mondern look with a blend of "shabby chic". This is appealing with a mixture of old & new crokery, However this would be great if only the crockery & were properly cleaned and bot stained & chipped. Sadly rhis really lets the exoeriece down.There seems be an issue with condensation & humidity possibly cominfrom the kitchen area which affects the comfort of the visit

We love this little coffee shop. Good simple fare, freshly cooked. Easy atmosphere, welcoming staff. Keep up the good work.

My wife and I often call in here for a coffee and a light snack. I normally have one of their sausage rolls which are in my opinion the best around. On this occasion they had sold out and I had a fruit scone. This tasted nice, if slightly overbaked but it was totally spoiled by the the cheap and nasty jam provided.

I am a regular visitor to the Coffee House in Ixworth and its 'sister' at Moreton Hall and can recommend it to any coffee/tea shop connoisseur. My regular weekly visit is to the Ixworth Coffee House after slimming group weigh-in on Wed morning (naughty but irresistible!) and before exercise class, I need something to give me the energy and breakfast at the Coffee House fits the bill nicely. I can particularly recommend the sausage rolls, scotch eggs, porridge, bacon butties, cakes ...... I could go on, and not forgetting the cheese scones to die for of course. I always rated John Lewis restaurant for their cheese scones, but now I've discovered Coffee House scones I have to score them the highest. Whilst my husband visits his chiropodist I make an excuse to accompany him so that I can visit the Moreton Hall Coffee House whilst waiting, the perfect excuse! The only improvements I can suggest are perhaps a couple of daily newspapers and a variety of magazines at Ixworth to entertain the solo diner, when I'm not nattering with friends that is. Long may the queen of cheese scones reign!

I have been to this coffee shop a few times.The sausage rolls are great, and although not cheap are large and worth the money.I would prefer waitress service to having to stand at the counter as it means all of us queuing to say what we want from the blackboard menus overhead, or some of the party guarding the table and having to come up in stages.The service once ordered is pretty quick, and the staff pleasant.The coffee has always been good.The sandwiches always seem to come just as they are with no garnish, but I am content with that. The only bad meal I have ever had was a smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwich. It would have been fine except that whoever made it decided I would like it with a very liberal sprinkling of black pepper.I did not enjoy it or finish it. The next time we went I made a point of saying no pepper - but I don't think I should have to opt out.Otherwise it has been fine, and I will happily visit again.

Fantastic little coffee shop. Staff are very friendly, always a smile on their faces. Coffee, cakes and snacks are superb. Delicious sausage rolls and rocky road..mmmmGreat atmosphere too.

This coffee house has the best sausage rolls in the world with the most beautiful milkshake just right to have after long walk.The staff are always friendly and have a smile on there faces.Oh and the bacon rolls are just fab as well.I have moved away from Bury and can say this is one place I miss, and try to go to when I come back to visit.

The coffee here is very good and the food is homemade cakes, sandwiches and soups. If you want somewhere that has a feel for the community with great drinks and food you can't go wrong by going there

called in before 08.30 on a weekday for a coffee on the way back from the community shops.... liked the atmosphere and eclectic mix of elements .. viz books plates on walls , coffee bag sacking on boxes and non standardised seating ... breakfasts being freshly cooked .. okay decafinated macchiato served in a large cup without water on the side ..pricing fair . loyalty card offered after a request friendly busy staff offset by surly fresh vegetables/ salad delivery driverregulars gave it that unique neighbourhood feel .

A weekly delicacy, the strong coffee and special sausage rolls are always top notch. I choose to travel across town rather than visit the local crummy chain. If you're a coffee lover then this place is a must visit!

I have been a regular customer for several months but am sad that drinks are constantly served in badly chipped and cracked cups and mugs. For this reason I only award an average score.At home, anything which is chipped or cracked is quickly disposed of. Regardless of dishwashers giving a 'thorough' clean, I dislike drinking from chipped and cracked cups.This is a shame because the drinks and food are all good.

Great wholesome food, fantastic atmosphere, great place to pop into for coffee, lunch and to meet with colleagues and fr

The team at The Coffee House are always friendly, helpful & just down right nice people. Great independent coffee shop serving brilliant bacon butties for breakfast, through home made scotch eggs & sausage rolls to a range of lovely cakes. They cater for all - a gluten intolerant friend said the lemon cake was one of the best she'd had. Nice mix of busy & still able to find a seat. A real find!

I love this place. It's always buzzing, the staff are really friendly, and the coffee is great. The scotch eggs and sausage rolls are divine and the bacon sandwiches the best. The CoffeeHouse is my favourite place to brunch on a day off.

Regularly use this lovely coffee house. It's busy and someties a bit frenetic but I love it. Friendly staff. It's one of my favourite places to drink coffee, people watch and surf the net.

They are adding more and more to the menu, the Americanos are still to die for and the food really is quite good! The soups never fail to hit the spot. Now they even serve jacket potatoes! Really good Rocket salads and it's the dressings that make it special. I can't stop ordering the fridge cakes..the service is wonderful also. Friendly staff! Thank you Lucy and Jess!

We have been regular customers since opening....we love the friendly staff, great home cooked food and the individual care we receive. More cheese in the scones please but they are lush anyway! EP JP and JD x

Would usually recommend this place but left disappointed today. Had the bacon butty having enjoyed this before but the bacon seemed to be of inferior quality and hardly any of it. However, the poached eggs on toast was even worse ... Grossly over priced at £4.75 for 2 eggs (which were hard) and 2 bits of bread. The scrambled eggs on toast which another customer had looked far better value and appetising. Had I been asked if everything was ok I would of used this opportunity to say something but this was not forthcoming, so, decided to leave quietly and,sadly, I won't be returning.

We recently held our annual village Christmas lunch of 31 ladies with a private booking made at their 2nd Coffee House in Ixworth . Lucy and Jess produced the most amazing meal for us all and went out of their way to make our Christmas lunch such fun . The table decorations , atmosphere with Christmas music and wood fire burning made us all feel so cosy and at home . The food was just so delicious. It really was a wonderful start to our Christmas celebrations !

Out of the way from the town but an ideal place to stop for coffee, light smack or meeting with friends.Service with a smile, great produce, and good atmosphere.

Top sausage roll and great service, nice and clean as we'll. I will be back again for sure.We'll done.

As an occasional visitor to the Coffee House, I've noticed that since opening their second cafe the owners are, understandably, spending more time in that one, standards are slipping - cleanliness needs looking at, the flies on the cakes and sausage rolls put me off buying one, and the coffee wasn't good. The cheery welcomes and goodbyes are no longer :-(

While visiting my American kids in Bury, I love to walk to this delightful place for coffee, a snack or lunch. The ladies that work there are so nice and friendly and the toasties are so varied and yummy. The atmosphere is super friendly and welcoming! They also give back to the community with sponsoring different events.... The best part: they have ice for my coke!

they do have awesome beverages, and really tasty scones, sausage rolls, etc, the owners-employees make you feel at home. I visited their establishment nearly every day when I visited family in Bury. I loved being there! Amazing salads too. Thank you Jess and Lucy!

I visit the Coffee House regularly and have always enjoyed the experience, it is a great place to meet up with your friends and just chill and catch up. The food is all home made, the coffee is lovely and tea served in China cups and teapots. The sausage meat (for the yummy sausage rolls and scotch eggs) is local rare breed as is the bacon. The staff are always friendly and happy to please. More light bites than big meals, it is always busy so if you want quiet, don't go at lunch time

Great place to have informal meetings or to take a break. Proper coffees, lovely cakes and a full menu of breakfasts and sandwiches. And the sausage rolls are legendary.
