Gooch's Coffee Shop And

My wife and I stumbled upon this charming restaurant with a view of the park and river while exploring the town. The back area is a lovely sun trap, which you might not notice from the front due to the old-fashioned shop front. Although we only intended to have coffee and cake, the other dishes being served looked delicious and our homemade cakes were fantastic. The staff were wonderful as well - despite not being able to immediately find a table, they offered to plate our take away order when we eventually found one. We will definitely be returning for breakfast or brunch next time!

We made a reservation for our photography group of 12 in advance at this restaurant. Each person ordered their food and drinks at the register. The drinks were promptly served, giving us some time to view our photos before the delicious food arrived. We were not rushed to leave once we had finished eating. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and everyone agreed that we would definitely return. Thank you to the staff.

We have been to Goochs for the second time and once again had a fantastic lunch! The service was friendly and efficient, despite the staff being busy. They always had a smile on their faces. Other cafes could definitely learn from this amazing team. Well done and we look forward to visiting again!

Tucked away from the main shopping area, we found this place while visiting Stanford today. What a lovely find. Staff very welcoming, table found quickly, order made at till and didn't have to wait long, before we were eating. We arrived around 1.00pm time and it wasn't long before the place filled up. I had a tuna,sweetcorn and mayo sandwich and my husband had a prawn baguette. Both came with a little pot of salad and a small dish of coleslaw with a pot of tea for approximately £18.50. I really liked it here. It was warm, clean,friendly with a good service.

Splendid spot for a breakfast. Spacious seating on several levels. Lower level looks out to river. Very attentive polite service. Spotless tables. Good selection. Cooked breakfast wonderful. Poached eggs on toast perfectly cooked. Checked in on after service. Very happy with our decision to get Sunday breakfast here. Tasty coffee and delicious food.
