Coffee Pot Cafe - Tewkesbury

Came upon the railway by chance, stopped in at the coffee pot, excellent food, and friendly service and caters for all tastes

We stopped of for an hour waiting for the nest train. Lovely cakes and tea for 2 (with a tea cosy on the pot!! Dogs not allowed inside, but plenty of room outside at tables on the platform.

Please don't visit this on a busy day at the train station! We went as a family on the Thomas the tank day. I'm assuming the staff were volunteers for the day most of which were lovely. But one lady was very rude and unhelpful! The whole set up was a shambles and no coordination involved! People book these tickets in advance so I would assume they know how's by people to experience!

We stop at this café when we travel on the GWR and it is a lovely café. The staff are always friendly and willing to help. Looking forward to stopping at this café when the railway opens again in the spring.

We had a simple lunch here while riding the vintage railway. Although the menu is very simple, we all thoroughly enjoyed the delicious fresh sandwiches, freshly made to order. In these days of factory-produced, too-chilly sandwiches it was very refreshing and a real treat to have these made just for us. With a pot of tea, it really completed the feeling of being taken back to a less-hurried time gone by. The service was very friendly and we did not have to wait any time at all for our order to appear. Had the weather been better, we would have enjoyed sitting at one of the tables on the platform and watching the trains go by. The vintage uniform complete with frilly head piece worn by the lady serving was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend this over the other cafe on the railway if you only wish to have a light sandwich lunch. The cakes looked very nice too. Another bonus is that all proceeds from the Coffepot Cafe go to help support the work of the Gloucestershire-Warwickshire Vintage Railway. Would definitely return and bring our visitors!
