Datchworth Coffee - East Hertfordshire

We arrived having not known the situation of what was on offer but have been meaning to try for some time. Current circumstances means the service has changed recently and breakfasts and more choice of lunches are no longer available and it is now a coffee shop. Having said that, there were two choices other than the cakes, a crusty baguette with bacon, brie and onion and tomato and lettuce which was very tasty and filling. There was another option that I cannot remember. We were informed the baguette fillings change. The food is home made and from what we tried very good. The coffees were made to customer liking and the service was friendly and good. I wish them luck. The menu on line has yet to be updated to take into account the new situation (as of lunch time 2nd Feb 2023) but will soon be done. The venue a small village shop (former post office) location that felt cosy, just by the main crossroads and opposite the local store. i was perfectly comfortable in the seat and we didn't rush to get away. I enjoyed the visit.

Situated opposite the village store on the road passing through Datchworth this small cafe serves a range of fresh cakes and is a good stopover for a coffee break in an area where such venues are few and far between. Friendly service, with a quiet calm ambiance. Free Wifi. I understand more substantial meals and breakfast are avaiable.

Stopped for breakfast whilst out walking. Everything about it was lovely the food was perfectly cooked, hot super fresh. Staff were great and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely return and highly recommend.

Absolutely cracking breakfast during our weekend dog walk! Full Datchworth Coffee breakfast, the veggie version, and granola and trimmings. Every item excellent and local produce. Nice chat with the new owner, and his staff were friendly and accommodating. So happy to see this under new management and looking forward to some more visits. Highly recommended.

Datchworth Coffee is the best place for coffee and food in the area. I really enjoy sitting in the pretty courtyard, catching up with friends. Chris (the new owner) is very welcoming and makes the most delicious cakes! Highly recommend!
