Ue Coffee Roasters in West Oxfordshire

Fantastic coffee roasters we have been using their coffee beans for several years now although a little bit on the expensive side you can tell that they are high quality. The cafe is very stylish and a surprisingly great atmosphere. The cakes and sausage rolls always look yummy too but I can’t comment about them as i haven’t tried them before.

I actually purchased two boxes of coffee beans after drinking the most delicious latte. As I had escaped work to find something to eat my puppy and I were pointed in the direction of UE Roastery. What a find. It feels reminiscent of the authentic roasteries/coffee houses found all over Australia so really took me back to my travels. The staff were so friendly and happy to offer advice on coffee purchases. Ms B was also given her own dog bowl of water at our table, which was much appreciated on a sunny day. I also enjoyed a Greek salad which was such a colourful and fresh meal that I would happily have purchased more to takeaway. Fresh and healthy which makes a change for most food I have to eat when working away from home. Loved my visit and will be back next time in Witney

This review is for the cafe at the actual roasters on Windrush industrial estate. Popped in for a coffee whilst killing some time. The vibe seemed nice, playing some nice music helped the feeling. The staff were pleasant and plenty of smiles (nice one) The outdoor shade sail was nice if not big enough to offer shade to all outside seating. Wasps are out early this year and were very present around all the tables. The coffee was great, perfect temperature and strength thanks. Came on a nice little tray with a glass of water, nice touch. I looked at the pastries and I think there were like sausage rolls on the counter top and wondered about food holding temperatures so gave that a miss. I noted that the foods offered seemed expensive, so didn't have a snack with my drink. A lot is right with this place, nice vibe, good atmosphere and nice to see the coffe roasters working. I just think the menu needs work, and food storage addressed. I would go back though, just for the coffee!

Used to absolutely love this place but it’s really gone downhill. They’ve completely lost the spark that used to make it so special. Instead of incredible food, they now have pretty awful ‘pre-made toasties’ and still charge £8 for it. The coffee is still really good but the changes they have made are going to be at the detriment of business. Unfortunately I won’t be going back there any time soon. Far better cafes like Blake’s and The Edge are going to be getting my business for the foreseeable. Please sort it out UE!

We went here on a Sunday for a coffee and cake and will not be returning !! We were waiting for our coffees and managed to over hear the manager talking to the servers ! The way he ( Nico I believe his name is ) spoke to the two lovely young girls working was just simply disgusting ?!! When’s you employ young people you need to take care of them and their mental well being ! Not walk around with a disgusting passive aggressive attitude thinking you can bully your way through the days ! No wonder so many teenagers and young adults feel so vulnerable ! It’s not 1986 sir !!! I suggest this place sorts the approach towards young staff out soon , I work with many young adults and it’s our job to make them brace and strong for the future not patronise !! It’s just coffee !! Get over yourself mr or I’ll happily pop in and give you a piece of your own medicine

Sad times…….coffee no longer served with a glass of water on a cute tray, no breakfast menu (we had always loved the poached eggs) pretty nonchalant staff……….

Oh dear .... what a shame - this was one of our favourite places to go - but it is clearly in difficulty. Apparently 3 chefs have left so very limited menu now - no pizzas, no breakfast menu - you can still get a bacon bap made by the limited staff team. There was a choice of 2 pastries only on the counter. No eggs on menu - no salads - no breakfasts! It's such a shame to see such a great place offering such lovely cakes, breakfast and lunch menu gone..... limited staff and no kitchen chefs....... what's happened UE ?

Great tasting coffee that didn't cost the earth, Service is really good, staff knowledgeable, and great shop layout decor and ambience.

We love UE coffee, best in the area but why does it take such a long time to buy and receive a simple takeaway coffee? The queues are long because the service is just so slow. Whilst queues might be longer in other coffee shops in the town, service is just so much faster in those places! It’s great to see a local Company thriving but waiting over 20 minutes for 2 coffees to be ready is ridiculous! Is it a lack of staff? I think not as there are plenty here. Is it a lack of equipment? Could be as the production line of producing coffee seems laboriously slow! They clearly need a better system of service, otherwise more people will vote with their feet as I will do so, given this seems a regular occurrence!

Had an update.... menu updated and it may appear a little pricy but..... it is lovely food. We had the sausage patty on muffin and bacon on ciabatta roll. Absolutely delicious. New teapots and sweet little handles cups. Great place with great food particularly tje cake options. A must for a lovely lunch and great coffee.

Die etwas versteckt liegende Kaffeerösterei bietet herrliche Kaffeespezialitäten und Kuchen an. Man hat die Möglichkeit innen und außen zu sitzen.

Simply the best coffee anyone can by in the UK, its exquisite. Worth travelling far and wide to experience their perfectly blended roast, with hints of chocolate and mandarin. It truly is mind blowing. The venue is amazing, the staff so friendly and they are truly accommodating to everyone's needs. If only every business was like this. Its actually cheaper than the mass produced slop you can find at any retail chain. I keep coming back and back for more. Thanks so much for your passion and brilliant coffee 🙏

I don’t lose my temper very often. Perhaps once in every ten years. I am an easy going kind of chap. However, the manager in UE Roasters in Witney just pushed me over the edge with her take it or leave it attitude. I had to wait far too long to be served and each time I queried something, I was expected to just go back to the end of the queue to await my turn. No ownership of the problem. I was just trying to buy a large tub of hot chocolate as I have done many times before. In the end, I was expected to purchase their “new version” because it was “much better”. I have now tried it. It is twice the original price. Tasted just the same. Won’t be coming back. I feel UE have lost their way. Have been a keen supporter of theirs in the past. No more.

Hidden gem in Witney, on an industrial estate. Discovered by accident and now I can’t stop going! Coffee is amazing and today we ate for the first time. The olive tapenade was amazing and reasonably priced. Love the setting and plenty of outside space to sit. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic find on the off chance. Great coffee Banana loaf with yoghurt and honey was amazing. See you again soon. Love this place.

We stopped for coffee and some advice about making flat whites at home on our new coffee machine. The barista was most helpful and wrote a few hints down for us to follow and sold us some house coffee beans. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

what a lovely place to spend some time. The staff are extremely knowledgeable, friendly and polite. The bacon sarnie is to die for. The macchiato will put hairs on your chest it's that good. Keep it up xx

We stumbled upon this place by accident and upon entering you realise it's very small but most people have their orders to go, there's a quality selection of cakes, muffins brunch etc and you can even buy specialty coffee and equipment. They also cater for allergies and vegetarian / vegan diets.

Lovely coffee - could be a teeny bit hotter as drunk in seconds- nicely served on a little wooden board with water. Good atmosphere - fairly intimate spacing of tables so don’t go there if you want a private conversation. Not brilliant for small children/babies for that reason alone! Not tried the food but looks very tempting.

Cheddar and chive muffin served warm with real butter and chilli jam. Great coffee and friendly service. £5.00 total.

Friendly greeting, good looking venue, CLEAN! Uncomplicated finely crafted beautifully presented fine coffee! Sweet and savoury offerings are very good too... Brilliant - thanks guys!

What is not to love about Witney? Nothing. And when in Witney, the coffee shop to go to is Ue Coffee Roasters. They have three shops in Witney, we chose the one on High Street. The flat white they do is amazingly good - we could not help but to have another fw right away. They roast their coffee beans, the roast is just perfect - thank you Lucian! Banana bread was very good as well, without toasting that just takes the moisture out of the bread. Everything was just right at the Ue.

The coffee was good but unfortunately there was only brown sugar on offer which I dislike intensely. I had sausage roll with some salad which was very nice, but all the cutlery that was silver and I react to that unfortunately.I was told to use the takeaway cutlery which I think was bamboo and nit sturdy enough for the sausage roll so I needed up just using my fingers

This s where I buy my coffee now, both to drink in and out...plus I buy the ground coffee to take home.

A great coffee shop that you’re more likely to find in Shoreditch or Hackney. Modern styling and innovative food. The gourmet sausage rolls make a more than adequate lunch. The coffee is excellent and the staff knowledgeable and courteous. A great spot to just sit and catch up with your thoughts and life.

Went yesterday for coffee, lovely atmosphere and staff. Coffee presented beautifully. Deserves to do well

This is a lovely coffee shop. Coffee and cakes etc are all delicious. The staff are so friendly and helpful. A real pleasure to visit.

Hubby and I visited the roastery (which also has a small cafe attached) today. We had the sausage rolls with sage, which are made on the premises, and which are ginormous! Full of flavour, and the pastry is really flaky and buttery. Best sausage roll I’ve ever tasted. Oh and the coffee is pretty good too!

The best coffee ever with amazing staff. Great food selection. Quality not quantity here. Always happy to recommend this place.

Let’s start with what was good, the coffee was great, and the toasted banana bread lovely, though the strange fatty stuff which was I guess a butter substitute was odd tasting. The upstairs sitting area was cosy.

Lots of great visits to UE. We invariably have our kids in tow and the staff never make us feel unwelcome, no matter how loud the kids are being! Great coffee, great staff... Love UE!

Have not been here for a while, but did notice a difference. The coffee was much hotter and was a great flavour. The staff were all friendly and attentive. A very mixed bag of customers. No menu available for food, but there was a few things on a chalk board. Pleasantly surprised and will certainly go again very soon.

Absolutely love this place! The staff are lovely and make you feel so welcome like you are part of the team! It’s a place where you would never feel judged because everyone is different in there own way! Which is amazing! And oh my with out a doubt it’s the best coffee I’ve ever had!! Also I really recommend the red pepper sausage rolls there so yummy or if you are vegetarian go for the butternut squash and feta! ABSOLUTE LOVE THIS PLACE AND IM GOING TO MISS IT SO MUCH!

The shop has lately been trying to expand into the lunch market, which means that there is definitely less attention and care being paid to the coffee - which is poor for a business that markets itself as a coffee artisan. If I wanted okay food and okay coffee I could go to any one of twenty other places in Witney.

This place ticks all the right boxes. Coffee was strong and full of flavour and service was exceptional. The beans are even roasted here in Witney.

Really good coffee , nice selection of cakes and very friendly . I would happily return and maybe try some of the food . Very nice .

Quite an intimate venue with lovely, flavouful coffee. Relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. Good altenaive to the regualar high street coffee shops.

Excellent coffee and a delicious cake too on this occasion. We go here a lot and every time the service is very good, the staff friendly and the coffee fantastic.

Absolutely hooked on the coffee these guys serve, smooth and sweet like the staff! I just keep going back! Don’t be intimidated by these coffee connoisseurs who are super friendly and happy to help you find exactly what you’re in the mood for. Also try one of their cakes, personal fave is the toasted banana loaf with yogurt and honey.

I haven't eaten hear but love the coffee and as I am not a great one to stop for a coffee when I am out that is a compliment. I do look for the UE signs now when I am out and about.

Me and my partner always have a afternoon coffee on a Friday and I've heard good things about this place so decided to give it a go and so glad we did! The coffee is amazing! It comes out on a wooden board with a small glass of water which I thought was a nice touch. We also had the chocolate brownie which was to die for! The staff are friendly and make you feel welcome without being overpowering

Where in the world will a coffee house that closed at 4.30 serve a special aeropress brew for a customer that rocks up at 4.45? Yes, god bless Ue as they did and then did not charge me......(I had left all my money at home!)

Ue never disappoints. I had my usual mocha which was up to its usual high quality. I also treated myself to a piece of their delicious warm banana bread which comes with Greek yoghurt and honey. My friend had a huge piece of Rocky road. Staff are always friendly and enthusiastic

Friendly service, great coffee and the Banana Loaf (toasted) with yogurt and honey is absolutely to die for. Great to see the independents well and truly outdoing the chains!

Amazing hot choc everytime. Good atmosphere friendly service. Nice to be away from a chain coffee shop.

Stopped in for a late afternoon coffee and very straight away impressed by the young man's enthusiasm for the product. We ordered 2 long blacks and were asked how much water we would like with them. They were not too hot and had a good flavour. Best coffee we have had in UK other than the Container at Croydon. Very nice brownies as well.

If you know anything about coffee this without doubt THE BEST coffee in Oxfordshire let alone Witney, it blows all other coffee shops out of the water. The baristas REALLY know their stuff. There is a fine selection of delicious cake, the toasted banana bread can't be beaten.

Amazing presentation & Fantasticly Rich & Bold Coffee. The Pasty food was declious. Easily the best Coffee in Witney.

This coffee shop is fantastic. The unusual cakes and sausage rolls are to die for, always very fresh and large portions. The coffee and teas are the best we have ever had, such high quality. The staff are very friendly and efficient. They have just launched a traditionally made Chai tea that is delicious. There is also the new shop just up the other end of the High St called the Old Smithy that is also of the same high standard

Just popped in for a coffee with our daughter. A well presented Cappuccino and an americano. Lovely Flapjack and a pot of tea.

After doing the trial parkrun in Witney (before the official opening of Witney Parkrun) I met a lovely lady called Hannah who introduced me to this little gem. Fantastic coffee and amazing banana bread with honey and yogurt. Looking forward to a return visit with my daughter to try the cakes xx

I have been buying UE’s superb coffee directly from the warehouse.

Very small cafe but the coffee is good and there is a decent choice of cakes and snack items etc. Friendly staff

Met up with a friend for a coffee. Enthusiastic staff serving and they bring it to you. Coffee is lovely and creamy and brought on a little board with a glass of water - nice touch. My only quibble is there’s only one size of cappuccino, I had drunk mine in about 5 minutes, I love a big coffee and the experience lasting a little longer... will still pop in though on occasion.

Coffee at smiths shop Good coffee nice ambience Coffee beans for sale and coffee pots Worth a visit.

This was my first of hopefully many more visits to this independent coffee shop.

First time visit to this coffee shop. They were a little late opening but the coffee was lovely and the service friendly and helpful. Not a wide range of things to eat on offer but it was first thing.

A small but cosy & welcoming coffee shop, with fantastic home-roasted coffee on offer, as well as a wide selection of local Jeeves & Jericho teas, freshly-baked cakes from Barefoot Bakery in Oxford (usually including a vegan option or two) & savoury pastries/snacks, all of which look delicious. Friendly staff & a nice place to relax with a drink & grab some tea/coffee supplies to take home.

Upon walking in the atmosphere was calm and sophisticated, perfect for a catch-up with an old friend over a coffee (or hot chocolate). We were served by George and our drinks made by Roman who finished them with some lovely patterns. Roman was always on hand to answer any questions and even suggested trying an “aeropress” filter brew which was definitely a treat.

Recommended for atmosphere, coffee and staff.

Best coffee in the 'Shire by far! Not like the TEPID dribble you get in other establishments. Also, the staff are always a pleasure to chat to.

Called in here with a friend for coffee and cake as had read the good reviews on tripadvisor. We weren't disappointed, coffee was absolutely delicious as was the cake. There were tasty looking savoury snacks on offer too. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and in our opinion it's definitely the best coffee shop in Witney.

Have visited both UE coffee shops in Witney and received excellent service every time. The staff are super-knowledgeable about their trade and always happy to make recommendations based on vague descriptions of this customer's particular tastes (I basically never know what to order, because I want to try everything!).

Died and gone to Heaven when I discovered this amazing coffee shop on Witney High Street, opposite the Pill Factory vintage store. Very knowledgable staff who brew up amazing coffee, with daily speciality brews, and to die for cakes. Really very good indeed.

Lovely atmosphere, the staff are really friendly. We had a great coffee and there are always unusual but lovely cakes .

Gorgeous coffee, excellent service and friendly staff. Highly recommended to all who love coffee. Try the fabulous, gooey raspberry brownies too!

Have been here a few times now - if you like your coffee then this is the place for you - nobody somes close in Witney. If you like your coffee served with an awesome artisan sausage roll then this is definitely the place for you!

Hubby and I visited your other shop at the other end of town last Thursday; I loved that the decor is very different from the high street store! The ceiling is very low, but that’s only a problem if you’re 5ft10”! The brownie was seriously good (very rich and chocolatey), and the service was very prompt. My only complaint is that the armchairs are too comfy!!

Love this coffee shop. They sell their own brands of coffee beans which they will grind to your specific needs. Although quite small inside, the atmosphere is unique as it feels as though the emphasis is on their coffee.

I been to UE Coffee a few times now. The coffee and service are really good, much better then the usual chains. They also sell a range of cakes that look amazing, which I've managed to resist so far.

This isn't a bad place to go - coffee is nice. However, it is a bit pretentious. My cappuccino was served on a bread board with a glass of water. Tiny portion of coffee as well. Prices are far too high for what it is.

Positives: freshly ground coffee of your choice and tasty cappuccino

I've been here before and had there coffee which is fantastic. My friend told me the banana bread was amazing. I tried it today and she was not wrong. They warm the bread and serve it with a side of Greek yoghurt and honey. Simply delicious! The atmosphere is cheery and the staff are always helpful and friendly. Well worth the short walk away from the town centre.

Found this little gem today even though it's been open since January, we never venture up that end of witney if I'm honest, I bet a lot of people are not aware it's there.

I don't drink tea or coffee and am usually quite repulsed in places like Costa because the smell is so over powering, but this little place is brilliant, the smell in there is not over powering and actually very pleasant. We had a drink and some snacks, all of which were homemade, the brownie and banana loaf were lovely and the sausage roll was huge! And delicious!

Every time I go to this cafe, the coffee and cakes are excellent. The service really friendly, and you are instantly made to feel very welcome. It's a delightful experience.

Man of the cafes in Witney are just more of the same from the chain outfits that you see everywhere so it's nice to see somewhere different pop up. Coffee is great - my wife is very hard to please and she loved it too. I also indulged in what is possibly the tastiest sausage roll known to man! Like some reviews say it is fairly small, but to me that just adds to the atmosphere. Will definitely return.

This venue takes its coffee very seriously - they even run classes on the subject.

Randomly stumbled across this place dropping a vehicle off around the corner. Genuinely the best brownie I've ever had. Amazing coffee as well! Throughly recommended.

If you love coffee this is a must do stop off. Excellent home roast coffee at its very best. Excellent service with people who really know and care about coffee

I love UE in Witney, the coffee, the cakes, the ambience & the staff are perfection, delicious, friendly & super efficient..... thank you for opening in Witney, this is THE place to go! Lucy

This is the best coffee shop in Witney, probably the best coffee shop in Oxfordshire and is amongst the best coffee shops in England! I have only visited twice. Once on my own and once with Lady P. Coffee excellent, flapjack to die for and excellent service. The only reason I scored 4 and not 5 was because, on my second visit there were dirty cups and plates on tables which took a while to be cleared. Very busy shop and when you have sampled the coffee you will know why!

A great coffee place in Witney, have never tasted coffee so good, a great addition to Witney. My only gripe would be remove the free wifi, because people hog tables for hours due to the free wifi (and don't order more drinks!) and so it can be difficult to get a table. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly

UE coffee is excellent. But this cafe is a victim of its own success, and it's often not possible to get a seat. Perhaps, despite the relatively newness of the business, it's time to think about expanding so we can get in more often. There's an empty shop next door...... :)

Come here most days. Lovely place to sit and relax. Great friendly service every time. My husband and our dog's second home! It really is the best coffee I've ever tasted...and I'm quite a fan of their cinnamon buns too. When the owner is in (which is often) he is so welcoming and friendly. Wouldn't go anywhere else in Witney. The only criticism I have is that the place isn't big enough. Needs more space for more tables!

Always great coffee and friendly staff. The cake is amazing and generous portions. Much better coffee and value for money than the generic chains. Best flat white in Witney.

You can easily pass this shop by. Popped in here to try it out with a friend not knowing what to expect. From outside it looks a little dark but inside nice and cosy. Staff friendly and helpful.

Know what's great about this place? Everything. The coffee and tea products are top-notch, the beverage selection is perfect and the staff totally know their stuff. Comfy atmosphere too. I've had aeropress, 360 and flat white coffees here and they've all been worth savouring. Witney is kind of spoiled for cafes--definitely add this one to your regular rota.

I'm a regular visitor to the Ue coffee shop since it opened a couple of months ago. The staff always welcome you into the shop with a smile. The range of cakes and pastries is good and the coffee is superb. I usually have the house latte and am loathe to try anything else as it is so good!

If you like good coffee this is a good place to get it, good selection of quality tea and very nice cake. The Staff are really friendly.

I love this place, beats the chains that are dotted around Witney by a mile.

This is a brand new cafe on the high street. UE Coffee is a local company who wood roast their own coffees and blend teas. The staff were knowledgable and happy to explain the different coffees available. The rustic fittings really make this place feel warm and welcoming. The cakes on offer complimented well the teas and coffees we had. I have now visited several times and give it 5 stars.

The best coffee shop in Witney by a mile !!!

This is a brand new cafe run by a local coffee roasting and tea blending company. Fit out is great and the presentation of teas and coffee is best in Witney. With tea you get an egg timer to ensure properly brewed tea. Coffee is served with a glass of water for palate cleansing. Whole experience feels very classy. Limited selection of eats and if that could be improved a little then this will be a genuine 5star drinking experience. Coffee tastes really good as you might expect from a company that creates its own coffee and tea blends. You can buy a range of teas and coffees and hardware from the shop and the staff seem very knowledgeable about their products.
