Yellow Submarine - Witney Cafe in West Oxfordshire

Been coming to the YS since 3 or so years now and the Coffee and Hot Chocolate are still smooth and excellent…coupled with the best Toasted Ham and Cheese in Oxfordshire it’s a wonderful combination. When you also consider the superb work they do in training youngsters with learning difficulties it’s truly a Cafe full of heart and soul, served by ever smiling Baristas. Can’t recommend it highly enough, money and time very well spent indeed !

Brilliant place. I’m not sure if I wish this was on the high street or not as it would probably be so popular, and in its current location it’s not too busy! I’ve had various cake / hot drink stops here and they have always been perfect. Great cafe. Thanks

I have written about the Yellow Submarine in Oxford, this one in Witney has same brilliant chartists as the one in Oxford and IMHO is very good for food and coffee, it is run by a very worthy charity. The staff and young volunteers you run this week in and week out are just outstanding, please do go along and this cafe ago you won't be disappointed.

This place offers some of the best coffee and cakes in Witney. The service is polite and friendly. Every time you eat or drink there you are also supporting their work to train and equip young adults with learning difficulties to transition into the workplace full time. Their trainees may even end up serving you. Amazing!!

Always good service and coffee, nice yummy cakes too. Staff work so hard and always with a smile. Recommended

If you want to wait 15 minutes for a cold coffee this is the place for you. Not much else to say about this crowded space with inefficient staff. Does not do the UE coffee brand any favours.

This cafe makes a good coffee every time and some lovely cakes, service is always good and fast, reasonably priced.

Fantastic little place, perfect for when we're visiting the soft play, great food, drinks and snacks available, staff are lovely attentive & caring, great job!

Now, I won't review this on false pretences, I know someone who works here but I am not biasing my review on this! I came in for coffee and a sandwich, and it was what I expected and more and at a good price! Now this cafe gives people who are unable to work full time for various reasons the opportunity to work (and hard) and give responsibility where this increases much needed confidence, social interaction and good old hard work! Will definitely come back next time I am around. Brilliant cafe! Also the honeycomb tiffin is a must!

I come to the cafe at least once a week with my family and we love it. The coffee is very high quality (I have a loyalty card) and the food is lovely, extremely good value and fresh. I can't fault this cafe and would recommend to everyone especially if you have little ones as its good quality without breaking the bank. The staff are all so friendly and accommodating well done!! 👍🏽

Project to help young adults with learning disabilities gain confidence and experience of a live working environment. Great food and great drinks, don't be put off that it's in the local leisure centre, it is open to the general public regardless of centre use. Do your self and your community a favour!

This cafe has taken over from a commercial venture in the leisure centre, and is so much better. It is partly run by young adults with learning disabilities, supervised by staff, and is a great place to go.They provide a good service and a variety of food and drink.It's a place to go and relax and enjoy the surroundings .

Love this place and all that it stands for. Great ethos, friendly service, delicious food and excellent prices. All it needs is a couple of sofas, some paper and crayons for the kids and some clever lighting to give it a cosier feel. Well done Yellow Submarine. We look forward to coming back!

well done guys great service great quality and feet service. if you are watching your children in a swimming lesson or just had a session in rhetorically gym....don't forget to drop in.

Forget that this is a charity venture as it punches well above its weight and really will give the major coffee chains in Witney a run for its money. Firstly the coffee is really really good. The drinks are wonderfully supported by a fantastic array of yummy cakes that include such delights as cranberry and white chocolate tiffin, millionaires shortbread, coffee cake and much more. Panini's and packaged crisp nibbles are available for those with a less sweet tooth. The layout of the cafe is just as you would expect from any high street coffee shop. As mentioned above this is a charity venture that supports disabled young adults in the work place. They do a proper job and provide lovely friendly service. Other large brands in this sector would do well to take on board their example. This branch of the Yellow Submarine is tucked upstairs at the Windrush leisure centre. You don't have to be a member of the leisure centre to frequent the coffee shop. There is parking but as it is the leisure centre the parking can be very busy. The alternative is to park across the road in the, free, parking attached to Waitrose and then take the short walk for great coffee. Big tip to the managers behind this venture - you need to get some signs/ advertising outside to encourage passing trade. All in all I loved this experience and I will definitely be back for more visits
