The Bottle Kiln - Menu

Charming cafe with a nice outdoor seating area when the weather is nice. They offer a good selection of food, drinks, and cakes. The service is excellent, and there are delightful shops nearby to explore.

I had a lovely experience at this restaurant. The coffee was wonderful, and the cheese scones were served warm, although the cheese on top had become a bit hard. I would definitely love to come back again!

I've been lunching with family and friends at The Bottle Kiln for a couple of decades. It's a great mix of quality giftware and a good resaurant. I recently ordered a fritatta, which was beautifully prepared. Entrees and coffee are consistently good (I never have room for dessert). The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I highly recommend The Bottle Kiln. View menu

I recently visited this coffee shop for the first time and was impressed by its stylish decor and popularity. The snacks looked incredible—though I had to resist the urge to try one! The coffee I ordered was delicious and beautifully presented. I would have appreciated a wider selection of sizes for the drinks. They also have a variety of items for sale, including a card section. While the prices seem a bit high, I can understand why this place is a favored choice for so many people.

Visited today (with my springer spaniel) and sat in the lovely gardens. However, we were asked to move as dogs were not allowed in the gardens. Asked to move to the dog friendly area, which is basically 2 benches and 2 tables at the side of the entrance. I asked why dogs were not allowed and the lady just said it has always been that way. I really think this needs reviewing. Dogs are such a huge part of life nowadays, and most places have adjusted to this. I won't be visiting again for this reason.

The food is homemade, with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, and it’s generously portioned with delightful aromas. The staff are incredibly friendly, skilled, and attentive, allowing you to enjoy your time without feeling rushed. The restaurant also features a lovely garden area and a small shop at the front. There’s convenient parking right outside, with additional overflow parking available at the church lot just a couple of doors down during busy times. I highly recommend this place! And don’t forget to take a piece of cake home with you! View menu

Our first time of visiting the Bottle Kiln and we had a lovely time, enjoying a coffee and then browsing in the shop. The displays are very well arranged with much to tempt you. Nicky was extremely helpful in explaining their gift wrapping service and late night opening in preparation for Christmas. I found the gifts, accessories etc to be of very good quality and reasonably priced. The Christmas decorations were a bit more classy than depending upon moving parts and lights to make them appealing! I know this sounds as though someone connected with the shop has written the review, but I'm really an ordinary punter who enjoyed the experience!

This restaurant has a beautiful ambiance, but it was quite busy during our visit. Unfortunately, there were no tables available outside, so we opted to sit indoors. We ordered four drinks and five cakes (our one-year-old didn't need a drink). However, we only received four cakes. When we brought this to the staff’s attention, it took about five minutes for the last piece of cake to arrive, as there seemed to be no urgency from the staff to cut or serve it. The cakes were delicious, and the drink selection was good, but we expected a little more attentiveness from the staff. We may give it another try in hopes of a better experience next time.

Called in today and had a jacket potato one topped with vegan chilli and one topped with avocado and chilli jam. Best jacket potato we've ever had, the chilli was amazing, the avocado and chilli jam, just superb, massive jacket potatoes and a lovely tasty side salad. Excellent cappuccino with oatmilk and tea the same. To finish off we shared a slice of vegan lemon drizzle cake, and it was outstanding, just so moist and zingy, beautiful. After dinner we had a walk around the Tranquil garden, wow, just such an amazing space, really special. Then we had a look around the gift shops, lots to look at clothes, jewelry, books, gifts etc... We are already planning to go back for a vegan breakfast, h... View menu
