The Welcome Bap in South Somerset

A proper English tea shop serving real tea and delicious snacks and cakes, topped off by being served by some beautiful stunning senior ladies, what a wonderful find in the heart of chard.

I love this place. I feel at home here...always made to feel welcome. Everyone is friendly.

Just as it is always...the reason I'm there whenever I can get there.

Friendly service provided by volunteers. 5 star food hygiene rating for light snacks and drinks. No Internet or card payment systems.

The food was not even warm service was so slow couldn't risk sending it back as might never got it back with in an hour even though there were only two tables being served!!

Friendly place 🙂 lovely fresh bacon baps and good pot of tea. Good price for a lunchtime snack.

We stopped off in Chard looking for somewhere for a bacon buttie for breakfast and came across this quaint little cafe which is something to do with the local Church. It appears all those that work there are volunteers so hats off to them and we didn’t expect speedy service so our wait wasn’t a problem. We only had bacon baps and a drink, but these were pleasant enough and very reasonably priced. It appears that it is probably a popular place for the more senior residents of the town to meet up for a bite to eat and to catch up on local gossip, but who can blame them when the food is decent and prices excellent. Well done and good luck.

Quiet, but good service from a group of volunteers. Excellent filter coffee, teas and cold drinks with light snacks. Excellent home made cakes and biscuits. Child friendly, but no WiFi or electronic payments.

poco hermosa cafetería voluntario. El personal es muy amable y servicial. El jengibre maravillosa galletas caseras. Lugar muy barato para comer lo básico. Incluso tienen una caja de petición de oración si desea ser orado por. Ojalá hubiera más de estos lugares no tan buen trabajo.

Good basic food, cake and coffee served by really friendly people, who I understand all volunteer. Would recommend as Chard has a rather limited choice. So, give it a try...

Nice enough place to drop into for a cup of tea and a snack. Didn't quite get what was ordered but hey, it's volunteer staff and very reasonably priced.

A lovely old building next to Chard Baptist in Holyrood Street. Lovely coffee and scones. Rather quaint but I loved it.
